Features
The I-2542-A/I-2542-B is created to double the existing bandwidth, while effectively reducing the cost of creating a new fiber optic infrastructure. Its design comes from a series of single-Strand fiber Converters supports Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology that allows two independent data communication channels to transmit and receive over one standard, single mode and fiber optic line. The module is for RS-232/422 point-to-point connections and RS-485 multi-drop applications which require a signal to be transmitted for distances of up to 15km, making it a perfect solution in applications where transmission must be protected from electrical exposure, power surges, lightning strikes or chemical corrosion.
- Automatic RS-485 Direction Control
- Optical fibers enable transmission of 2 km for I-2541 ,15 km for
I-2542-A/I-2542-B and 25 km for I-2542-A25/I-2542-B25 - Avoids lightning strikes and EMI/RFI interference
- Supports +10 VDC ~ +30 VDC
- ESD Protection for the RS-232/422/485 Data Line
- DIN-Rail Mounting
- Supports operating temperatures from -25 °C ~ +75 °C
