Are there any cases where you want to connect to the network using a wired fiber connection on a laptop with Windows 7/8.1 or a MacBook?
From a security perspective, the proliferation of wireless LAN networks poses a high risk for companies and hospitals. Additionally, in environments where electromagnetic wave effects must be considered, are there any projects that require securely linking Windows tablets, MacBook Pros, or laptops running Linux at 100 Mbps? The Scorpion-USB is a USB 2.0 connected 100M Ethernet adapter. It can directly recognize 100BASE-FX as a device on a laptop, allowing for power supply via USB bus power and direct extension using optical fiber. The connection can be made to devices with the 100BASE-FX communication standard, or to 100BASE-FX SFP modules inserted into SFP switches, or to media converters. The optical fiber can be of SC connector type or LC connector type, and if needed, ultra-long distance (up to 200 km) using single-mode LC optical fiber is also possible. The drivers provided are compatible with Win7/8.0/8.1, both 32/64 bit, and have obtained WHQL certification. It also supports OSX 10.5 to 10.10.

Applications/Examples of results
- Prohibited area for wireless equipment at the airport - Purpose for connecting to the network within the hospital (where an optical patch panel is already installed and PCs are directly connected via optical fiber cables). Wireless connections are prohibited, and wired connections (UTP) are also completely banned due to security concerns. Previously, it was connected via a PCI-Express expansion board, but due to the popularity of high-end laptops among doctors over desktop PCs, there are plans to replace everything with Scorpion-USB and Windows 8.1 laptops.
