USB-3 will have fiber-optic links *and* copper. 4.8 gigabits / second (But being USB can you actually achieve that? The USB disk controllers only do about 120 Mbps.)
Backwards compatable: USB-2 devices can plug into USB-3 ports. (USB-1 also?) http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9780794-7.html I don't see anything about max cable length. The whole point of USB is to be cheap, does this mean that someone found a way to do fiber optic cheaply? _______________________________________________ Open-hardware mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-hardware
