The Model 4042 is designed to operate from -40°C to 85°C. The unit features ESD protection circuitry on the RS422 copper interface. The power input is protected from transients, as well as, over voltage and over current. The converter is powered from a +5V power supply or a +28V power supply via the DB9 connector. Other features include user selectable fiber polarity, TX, RX and Power indicator LEDs.
FEATURES:
- Model 4042 converts ST Duplex Fiber to Copper RS422 DB9 (F) port.
- Supports constructing an optically isolated high-speed communication link between connected devices.
- Typical operating speeds are up to 5 Mbps for RS422 to fiber conversion.
- Provides full galvanic isolation (no metallic connection) between connected devices.
