PSI-MOS-RS232/FO 1300 E
Data sheet
1
Description
The
PSI-MOS-RS232/FO 1300 E
device can be used to
convert RS-232 interfaces to fiber optics.
The main advantage of the PSI-MOS fiber optic transmis-
sion system is the electrically isolated connection of de-
vices, which prevents the negative effects of voltage equal-
ization currents and electromagnetic interference on the
data cables. Result: increases the overall availability of the
system and improves flexibility in terms of the design of the
bus topology for point-to-point connections and in star struc-
tures.
Optical star couplers can be combined for a specific appli-
cation by serially connecting up to ten FO modules. Cross-
wiring within a modular star coupler occurs automatically via
the backplane. The system supports progressive transmis-
sion speeds from 4.8 kbps to 115.2 kbps.
The devices are also equipped with comprehensive diag-
nostic functions to increase system availability and to sim-
plify startup. The integrated fiber optic diagnostics perma-
nently monitor the optical transmission quality.
Ranges:
–
Up to 45 km with single-mode fiberglass
–
Up to 27 km with multi-mode fiberglass
Connection is via SC duplex connectors.
