The
FBR-Serial-2 is a multi-function serial to fiber optic
converter that supports asynchronous serial communications
(RS-232, RS-485, and RS-422) through fiber optic links.
Besides the capability of long distance data transmission,
fiber lines are inherently resistant to EMI/RFI and
transient surges; therefore, they are ideal for data
communications near heavy electrical equipment and other
electrical or radio interference.
Depending
on the fiber cable and the type of converter used, a
multi-mode fiber optic converter can extend the
RS-232/485/422 distance to up to 1.2 miles (2 km), while a
single-mode fiber optic converter can extend the
RS-232/485/422 distance to up to 12.4 miles (20 km).
Standards can be mixed and matched, so RS-232 devices can be
connected to RS-485/422 devices, or RS-485 (2-wire) devices
can be connected to RS-422 (4-wire) devices without using a
converter and isolator.
The
unit supports serial data rates up to 460kbps and features
data format auto-sensing and self-adjusting, and, therefore,
no DIP switch or jumpers are required. When working with
RS-485 signals, the CommFront’s auto-turnaround feature
eliminates the need for flow control.

The FBR-Ethernet-2
is a 10/100M Ethernet to fiber optic media converter, which provides
one channel for media conversion between 10/100BaseTX and 100BaseFX.
Depending on the
fiber cable and the type of media converter used, a multi-mode media
converter can extend the 10/100M Ethernet distance to up to 1.2
miles (2 km), while a single-mode media converter can extend the
distance to up to 12.4 miles (20 km).
The
FRB-Ethernet-2 is a plug and play unit featuring auto-negotiation
for half or full-duplex and 10 or 100Mbps data rates, it also
supports MDI (straight-through) and MDIX (crossover) cables, no DIP
switch or jumper settings are required.
