Topic
About the Module
Use the 1786-RPFS module when you need a short-distance fiber link between
two ControlNet products. Maximum distance is 300 m (984 ft). The fiber link
provides ground isolation between nodes and is less susceptible to noisy
environments than copper media.
The supported distance depends on the quality of the fiber,
IMPORTANT
number of splices, and connectors. The total light loss through
the fiber link must be less than 4.2 dB.
