OPT-700
Serial to Fiber Optics Converter OPT700
The OPT-700 is a
Fiber Optic Modem designed to provide a versatile connection between
asynchronous serial communication interfaces such as RS-232c and RS-485
using Fiber Optic cable. It will allow any equipment that uses half-duplex
asynchronous serial communication at typical distances up to 4.0 km
with the great benefit of EMI immunity.
It can be configured
point-to-point or in a multi-drop configuration using the Repeat feature.
The OPT-700 supports
a broad range of configurable baudrates for the asynchronous serial
communication. RS-232C can work between 2400 to 115.2Kbps while RS-485
works from 2400 till 920Kbps.
Once Fiber Optic
is immune to EMI/RFI and ground loops, the Modem can replace converters
and isolators when connecting remote devices.
