Description This media converter is designed to provide a reliable and efficient solution for converting RS485/422 signals over fiber optic cable. This media converter comes in a pair and uses fiber optic technology to transmit data over long distances without interference (up to 20km with the Single Mode Version and up to 2km with the Multi Mode version). Ideal for systems that are separated over longer distances but require the efficiency and reliability of a RS485/422 connection. The converter features a compact and rugged Industrial steel design, making it ideal for use in industrial and harsh environments. This RS485 to fiber media converter is also equipped to mount on a DIN rail, making it the perfect device for industrial applications. It also supports an extreme range of operating temperatures, ensuring reliable performance in industrial operating conditions. With plug-and-play functionality the device auto-adapts to whatever Baud Rate, installation is quick and easy, and the converter requires no special configuration. Plus, with its low power consumption, this media converter is an energy-efficient solution for your install needs, especially when operated via battery sources. This device has the capability to take 2 power inputs to ensure uptime and reliability, eg. mains power & battery backup power. This media converter uses a terminal block (Phoenix connector) to connect to your RS485/422/232 connections as well as a DB9 serial connector also for RS232. Fiber connections available are a Simplex SC/UPC for the Single Mode version and a Duplex SC connection for the Multi Mode version.
