Interface Converters, Glass Fiber to Copper Interface
Model 4174 High Speed Ruggedized ST Fiber to RS485 / RS422 / RS232 Interface Converter Board

The Model 4174 is a very high speed ruggedized, protocol independent, Fiber to RS485/422/232 interface converter from Electro Standards Laboratories. Typical operating speeds are up to 1.5 Mbps for RS232 to fiber conversion and up to 5 Mbps for RS485/422 to fiber conversion. Designed to operate from -40°C to 85°C, it is a member of Electro Standards Laboratories’ (ESL) rugged community fiber-to-copper media converter family.

The unit features protection circuitry on all receivers and transmitters for both RS232 and RS485/422 interfaces. The Model 4174 Board Unit has front mounted threaded brackets for rack mounting in embedded applications.

The unit’s power input is protected from transients and features 3kVDC isolation to prevent system ground loops. It can be powered from a wide input range of 4.5VDC-9VDC. Custom models are also available for other voltage ranges such as 10VDC-36VDC and 19VDC-72VDC.

Dual D9 connectors for Power Daisy Chaining.
