Industrial managed Ethernet to fiber optic converter switch
10 - 30 V, 115.2 Kbps | FD series
B&B Electronics
* Monitor and control dozens of RS-232 nodes by cascading -- FDS4FE
* RS-422/485 data rates to 460 kbps, RS-232 to 115.2 kbps
* RJ-45 expansion port extends RS-422 from each unit
Model FDF4SE is a serial to fiber converter and network hub. Up to four pairs of fiber cable can be connected to a single RS-232/422/485 serial port. If the PC port is RS-485, each fiber port can be addressed individually. Each fiber pair can be connected to a Model FDS4FE to monitor, poll or control four or more serial devices.
Fiber Optic Conveter Hub Application Diagram
Model FDS4FE converts a fiber signal to serial and acts as a network hub to monitor and control up to four RS-232 serial devices.
If only one pair of fiber cables will be used, a Model FOSTC or FOSTCDR serial to fiber converter (above) may be used in place of the Model FDF4SE. Both Models FDF4SE and FDS4FE have RJ-45 RS-422 expansion ports. By using the expansion ports and cascading devices to similar hubs you can increase the network size.
Panel mount cases are 14.1 x 9.7 x 3.2 cm (5.6 x 3.8 x 1.3 in)
Each unit requires power of 10-30 VDC.
Optional 15 VDC power supply is available.
