1 Introduction

Fiber optic transmission medium is a good material to protect data
transmission from EMI/RFI interference and has been used in harsh
environment extensively. On the other hand, CAN bus is famous in industrial
application. More and more users build CAN networks to communicate their
controllers, sensors and actuators. In order to solve the problem between
different transmission medium, I-2532 is specially designed for converting the
electrical CAN bus signal to fiber optic cables.
The fiber length between two I-2532s can be up to 1.4km (4593ft), it is
mainly decided by the cable attenuation of fiber and the CAN bus baud. I-2532
is the economic solution for applications which require protecting the data
transmission from electrical exposure, surges, lightning or chemical corrosion.
Generally, I-2532 can be used in CANopen, DeviceNet and all the other CAN
network which follows the ISO 11898-2 standard.
