Lumens and Icron Confirm USB 3.0 Joint Product Interoperability

BURNABY, British Columbia & FREEMONT, Calif., September 20, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Icron Technologies Corporation, a leader in USB and video extension technology, and Lumens™ Integration Inc., a leader in optical products, announced today joint product interoperability between the VC-B30U HD PTZ USB 3.0 camera and Icron's USB 3-2-1 Raven™ extender systems.

The Lumens plug and play VC-B30U HD Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) camera has USB 3.0 and HDMI video output interfaces for dual display. The camera has a Full HD 1080p output resolution with a high dynamic image rate of 60 frames per second. The VC-B30U works seamlessly with any conferencing software that supports USB 3.0 devices, offers 128 user-defined preset modes for ease of use in all environments and features a superior 12x optical zoom, making it ideal for any medium-size conference room.

Web conferencing is on a huge growth curve as companies big and small are taking advantage of the high-bandwidth resolution and ease-of-use provided by USB 3.0 cameras. We are pleased to recommend Icron's USB 3-2-1 Raven extenders as an approved accessory for our VC-B30U camera when cable extension beyond five meters is required.

Steven Liang, Director of Product Management

Icron's USB 3-2-1 Raven 3104 is the world's first backward-compatible USB 3.1 extender system for up to 100m over a single CAT 6a/7 cable, making it ideal for USB 3.1 broadcasting and web conference cameras as well as any other USB 3.1, 2.0 or 1.1 application, while the USB 3-2-1 Raven 3124 provides up to 200m extension over OM3 multi-mode fiber for applications requiring additional distance. Both models include the ExtremeUSB-C™ suite of features such as transparent USB extension, true plug and play operation (no software drivers required) and are compatible with all major operating systems including Windows®, macOS™, Linux® and Chrome OS™.
