Thor Fiber now has a line of multi-serial (RS-232 / RS-485 / RS-422) to fiber optic converters that transmit a serial protocol over fiber. Fiber transmission extends a serial signal up to 120km.
These units support single-mode and multimode over a single fiber. The serial port interface uses single terminal block connector field wiring.
These units automatically detect the signal baud rate of the connected serial device, which ranges from 300bps to 115.2Kbps. They also automatically adjust to changes in the connected device's baud during operation without reconfiguration or interruption of service.
They support chassis, wall-mounted, and DIN rail mounting for quick and easy installation.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a common phenomenon in typical environments like industrial plants, warehouses, and factory floors. This interference can cause corruption of data over serial or copper-based Ethernet links. Data transmitted over fiber optic cable, however, is completely immune to this type of noise, thus preventing the negative effects of voltage equalization currents and electromagnetic interference on the data cables. A serial-to-fiber media converter, therefore, enables you to interconnect your serial devices over fiber, ensuring optimal data transmission, increased system availability, and improved network design.
