FIB1-SERIAL - RS-232, RS-485, RS-422 fiber media converter, SC connector

Product description
The FIB1-SERIAL provides a fiber converter solution to extend RS-232 or RS-485/422 transmission distance up to 2km over multimode fiber or up to 120km over single mode fiber. Unit is also available with WDM optical modules for operation on single strand fiber optic circuits. The converter is equipped with multiple interface circuits, for connection to RS-232, RS-423, or RS-485/422 (2 or 4 wire). The FIB-SERIAL secures data transmission over EMI resistant fiber at speeds up to 256kbps for RS-232 or up to 1024kbps for RS-422/485. When the FIB1-Serial is linked to the FRM301 with FIB1-SERIAL card, it allows network engineers to get greater functionality through advanced SNMP features. The network administrator can manage any converter module from anywhere on the network, detect any link loss and maintain each loop.

The uniqueness of FIB1 series is given by the ability to convert from standalone media converters to cards for FRM301 chassis, in matter of minutes. In an always changing and growing networking environment, such a versatile feature allows network operators to switch to higher density and aggregation hubs without the need to purchase new fiber optic converters. This simple, but so reliable idea, made the FIB1 series media converters the perfect choice of media converters by data carriers and service providers.

There is only one single item (media converter) that does support all the mentioned serial data interfaces. This provides customers with an extra level of flexibility when investing in their network infrastructure.
