Product Description:
The RocketLinx MC5001 is a 1-port serial to fiber media
converter designed to extend RS-232/422/485 serial communications
across a fiber media link using two converters. This product features
simple DIP switch configuration, an extended operating temperature
range from -20° to 70º C, and a wide input voltage range.
Cabling to
the product is attached via direct wire screw terminal blocks for
serial and power, and ST connectors for fiber connections. The product
is packaged in a rugged IP30 rated enclosure suitable for panel or DIN
rail mounting.
Single-mode fiber optic ports meet the needs for
long distance transmission up to 40KM. RocketLinx MC5001 will
automatically detect the data baud rate of the connected full-duplex
serial device, up to 921Kbps.
The RocketLinx MC5001 supports two transmission
configurations, Peer-to-Peer in half/full-duplex and Serial Fiber Ring
(SFR) in half-duplex. In a Peer-to-Peer configuration, two fibers are
required between the two converters, one for data in each direction (RX
and TX). To expand the number of connected serial devices, and extend
transmission distance, the MC5001 can link to each other as a ring
architechture in SFR (serial fiber ring) mode.
