RS-232 to Fiber Optic Converter
1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this RS232 to Fiber Optic Converter. It is designed to
extend RS232 signals over optical fiber. It provides the most versatile connection
possible between any asynchronous RS232 equipments using fiber optic cable.
The optical fiber isolates the data signals from ground potential, ground loops and
provides EMI/RFI protection. There are 2 models, single-mode and multi-mode.
The multi-mode converter is used to extend serial transmission distance up to
2Km. The single-model converter extends up to 40Km.
Features:
 Provides 1 RS232 Port over Fiber Optic
 Provides 1 RS232 DB9 Male Connector
 Fiber Optic: SC, Multi Mode, 850nm, Duplex
 SC, Single Mode, 1310nm, Duplex
 RS232 Baud Rate from 300bps to 921.6Kbps
 Protects Against Electrical Interference or Chemical Corrosion
 Extends RS232 Transmission up to 2Km, multi-mode (or 40Km, single-mode
Distance
 15KV ESD Protection for Serial Port Signals
 Powered by Serial Connector or External DC Jack
 Provides both Wall Mounting and DIN RAIL Kits
 Compact Size

4. Hardware Installation
1. Use static electricity discharge precautions.
Remove possible static discharge potential from any objects that the Converter
may come in contact with before installation. This can be accomplished by touching
a bare metal chassis rail after you have turned off the power.
2. Connect the AC power adapter, you need a 12V DC type adapter, either a screw
lock type or non screw lock type will do. The AC adapter supplied with the Convert-
er is a screw lock type.
3. Connecting Fiber Cable: Please remove the protection cover on the fiber connect-
or, connect the fiber cable to it. Please note that the single-mode fiber cable is dif-
ferent from the multi-mode. You have to check the correct Converter you are con-
necting.
