Introduction

1

The RUGGEDCOM RMC20 series of media converters are industrially hardened

and specifically designed to operate reliably in electrically harsh and climatically

demanding environments.
The RUGGEDCOM RMC20 is a utility-grade, protocol-independent, serial-to-fiber

and serial standards converter for all your serial communication requirements.

The RUGGEDCOM RMC20 allows RS485, RS422, or RS232 devices or networks to

communicate over secure, noise immune, optically isolated, fiber optic cabling at

extended distances as well convert RS232 to either RS485 or RS422 serial standards.
The RUGGEDCOM RMC20 was designed specifically to provide years of maintenance

free operation for all your mission-critical, real-time control applications. To provide

the utmost in reliability, the RUGGEDCOM RMC20 is tested to the most stringent

international EMI and environmental standards for use in HV/MV electric utility

substations and industrial manufacturing, process and control and intelligent

transportation systems applications. All RUGGEDCOM products are packaged with a

high reliability, built-in power supply (24V, 48V or HI voltage options) and enclosed

in a rugged galvanized steel enclosure suitable for panel or DIN-rail mounting.
