Point System™ RS232 Remotely Managed Media Converter Module, RS232 Copper to Fiber

DB-9 [15 m/49 ft.]
to 1310nm single mode (SC)
[40 km/24.9 mi.] Link Budget: 26.0 dB

Description

The CRS2F Series stand-alone serial RS232 to fiber converters allow you to extend the distance between serial connections with the use of fiber optic cable. These full-featured stand-alone media converters transmit the full complement of RS232 flow control/handshaking signals optically and supports full or half-duplex asynchronous data transmission at speeds up to 115 Kbps. Link a remote terminal to a host computer: Connect multiple devices, such as security scanners, POS devices, remote terminals and building access/alarming systems to a host computer. Ideal for campus or business environments where remote devices can be networked in a point-to-point configuration where distances are greater than the 15 meter limitation of conventional copper serial cables.
