EMI/RFI Protection
The MED100A is our Industrial Serial to Multi-mode Fiber
Optic Converter. Designed for industry, it extends serial data
range up to 2.5 miles and provides the most versatile
connection possible between any asynchronous full or half-
duplex serial equipment. In addition to direct point-to-point
connectivity, it is capable operating in a multi-drop mode. This
allows one serial device to communicate with up to 31 others
around a fiber optic ring. Since it supports mixed serial
standards, you can replace other converters and isolators and
add the EMI/RFI immunity inherent to fiber optic
communications.
In RS-232 mode, the MED100A supports transmit and
receive data. Handshaking signals are not passed through.
An Automatic Send Data Control circuit controls the RS-
422/485 driver chip, eliminating the requirement for special
software.
Easy to install and configure, it has an 8 position DIP
Switch to set up the RS-422/485 parameters and terminal
blocks to connect serial signals and power.
"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
