Simple Optical Remote Switches

Mar 07, 2007 0 Replies

All,



I've googled this and have come up surprisingly dry.



What I want to do is control a relay optically over a distance of about 30 feet. One way, off on. Almost zero bandwidth.



I see optical cables with fittings on each end.



Where could I find modules that would do this sort of thing? I don't want to solve the mechanical problems myself. Someone must have invented such a thing.



Is there a hobbyist source for this sort of thing?
