Universal Fiber Optic Interface Converter
Glass fiber optic transmission lines are the solution of choice
when you need to implement absolutely noise-free serial
data transmission over long distances and/or in noisy
environments.
Whereas the attenuation with plastic fiber optics places a limit
of maximum 100 meters on the attainable cable length, the
distances achievable with glass fiber optics are significantly
greater and at a comparable cable cost.
The fiber-optic solution offers another significant advanta-
ge: The data transfer is carried out with minimal delay and
enables the processing of real-time protocols.
Wiesemann & Theis offers an entire family of various fiber
optic interfaces that allow you to convert critical I/O ports
or serial ports into an optical port for connecting glass fiber
optic cable.
This interface family is described on the following pages
along with the corresponding technical data and including
connection examples.
