RS-232 to Fiber Converter | RS-232 Fiber Optic Modem (Circuit Card Design)
Beschreibung
The VERSITRON F280xD series RS-232 to fiber media converter provides a secure and reliable way to transmit serial data over fiber optics. With transparent data transfer and minimal signal distortion, it ensures consistent, high-performance communication.
Built for long-distance transmission, this serial data modem supports data transfer up to 2 km using 1310nm multi-mode fiber and up to 20 km with 1310nm single-mode fiber, making it a great choice for critical applications that require extended reach.
This RS-232 to fiber converter features a DB25 connector for copper connections and an LC connector for the fiber optic interface, ensuring broad compatibility with different devices. Additionally, it's designed for rack-mount installation in a high-density 19" standard chassis, making it easy to integrate into existing network setups.
Engineered for reliability in harsh industrial environments, this serial to fiber media converter operates within a temperature range of 0° to 50°C (32° to 122°F), making it well-suited for demanding conditions.
Additionally, the F280xD fiber optic modem features seven status indicators: Power (PWR), Alarm (ALM), Transmit Data (TXD), Receive Data (RXD), Transmit Clock (TXC), Receive Clock (RXC), and Loopback (LOOP) for easy monitoring and diagnostics.

Applications of RS-232 to Serial to Fiber Converters:
- Industrial Automation: Ensures stable data transmission in electrically noisy environments.
- Broadcasting: Ensures reliable data transfer for media applications.
- Military Applications: Provides secure, interference-free communication.
- Telecommunications: Integrates legacy RS-232 with fiber networks.
- SCADA Systems: Enables long-distance RS-232 device connectivity in remote locations.
While the F280xD series is ideal for applications where space is not a constraint, VERSITRON also offers RS 232 to fiber converters in a compact design, also referred to as fiber optic Micromodems, such as the M82xxD model, which is designed for industrial and commercial network environments with limited space.
