Optical USB

Has anyone seen or heard of these?

I'm involved with setting up computers for recording multiple hi speed cameras and they recommend using optical USB cables per camera for distances over 3 meters.

I googled it and corning make them and claim they are USB 2 or 3 compatible and work up to 30 meters to self powered clients and can carry 5Gbs. Has anyone used one to connect to a powered hub on a mount at all?

I rang 4 suppliers today and none had heard of them, but neither had I.
