Features

Transport One Channel Sync/Async Data Over Fiber
Accommodate RS-232,RS-422, or RS-485
Data rate up to 128 Kbps (RS-232) or 1 Mbps (RS-422)
Cost Effective Solution for Remote Data Transport

The standard 510 system is designed to transport one (1) channel sync or async serial data signal over long distance through one or one pair of singlemode or multimode fiber.

The 510 Series is a low-cost and high Fiber Optic Sync/Async RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 Data Transmission System. The data rate is up to 128kbps for RS-232 channel, and is up to 1Mbps for RS-422 channel. The 510 Series comes with two packaging options: a rugged, standalone, and compact unit, or a plug-in card for a card cage system. Panel connectors are provided for data (DB-9 connector) and fiber connection (ST-type for singlemode and multimode versions). The 510 Series is easily monitored through LED indicators for power, optical link, and data activity. The standalone units are powered by +12 VDC. The 510 design is capable of addressing a variety of non-standard configurations.
