Introduction
Thank you for choosing the active USB3 3.1 AOC cable. This cable allows you to transmit USB signals without external Power Delivery over distances up to 15m. The cable is a hybrid cable that contains both optical glass fibers and copper conductors. It supports a maximum data rate of 10 Gbit/s per channel, is lightweight, flexible, and has a very small bending radius of only 20 mm.
Intended Use
Use is only permitted indoors and not outdoors. Contact with moisture, e.g. in bathrooms or similar environments, must be strictly avoided.
For safety and approval reasons (CE), do not modify and/or alter the product. Using the product for purposes other than those described may damage the product and cause hazards such as short circuits, fire, electric shock, etc.
Read the user manual carefully and keep it. Only pass the product on to third parties together with the user manual.
Safety Instructions
Read the user manual carefully and pay particular attention to the safety instructions. If the safety instructions and proper handling described in this manual are not followed, we assume no liability for resulting personal injury or property damage. In such cases, the warranty/guarantee also expires.
This product is not a toy. Keep it away from children and pets. Do not leave packaging materials lying around carelessly. These could become a dangerous toy for children. Risk of suffocation!
- The maximum tensile load of the cable is 157N (16kg). Never pull the cable with a higher load.
- The minimum bending radius of the hybrid cable is approx. 20 mm. Bending the cable to a smaller radius will cause irreversible damage.
- Beware of tripping hazards; make sure the cable is securely installed.
- Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong vibrations, high humidity, moisture, flammable gases, vapors, and solvents.
- Do not expose the product to mechanical stress.
- If safe operation is no longer possible, take the product out of service and protect it from unintended use.
Safe operation is no longer guaranteed if the product:
- shows visible damage
- no longer functions properly
- has been stored for an extended period under unfavorable environmental conditions, or
- has been subjected to significant transport stresses.
Handle the product carefully. Impacts, shocks, or even a drop from a low height can damage the product.
Also observe the safety notes and operating instructions of other devices to which the product is connected.
Consult an expert if you have doubts regarding the operation, safety, or connection of the product.

Operating and Connection Diagram
Note: The FX-I650 series is designed for use with a +5V passive Power Delivery supplied by the source device. This +5V connection, as well as the power for the integrated optical fiber module, is transmitted to the Receiver via a standard copper connection. Please ensure that the source device can supply more than 500 mA.
This cable can only be used in one direction. The connectors are labeled “HOST” and “DEVICE.” Each plug must be connected to the correct device to avoid signal loss.
Make sure before using this cable that all devices connected with the AOC USB cable are turned off and not powered.
- Connect the “HOST” side of the USB plug to the Transmitter and the “DEVICE” side of the other USB plug to the Receiver / Display. This works without additional Power Delivery.
- We advise against using additional cables or adapters between the connectors, as signal transmission performance may be weakened.
- Power on the Transmitter/source device and the Receiver/display.
Maintenance
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the product; therefore, never open/disassemble it.
Have maintenance, adjustments, and repairs performed only by qualified personnel or a specialist workshop.
If you have any questions not answered in this manual, please contact our technical support or a qualified expert.
