The converter offers cost-efficiency to transmit RS-422/485 signal over optical fiber in variable distances up to 2km (multi-mode fiber). The converter is ideal for connecting data communication devices situated in manufacturing-intensive environments where electromagnetic and radiofrequency interference is a major concern. Data integrity is also assured because the characteristics of fiber optic cables make any break in transmission integrity immediately detectable.

It enables network managers to install fiber cabling anywhere within an existing network environment without the removal, replacement or modification of the current copper-based RS-422/485 infrastructure. Plus, it is capable of 4-wire and 2-wire operations via DIP switch. Simply use the DIP switch to adapt to different cabling environments.
