2KM over multi-mode fiber or up to 120KM over single mode fiber. The unit is user-configurable for RS-232, 3 & 5 wire, RS-485, 2 & 4 wire or RS-422 4 wire. The FRM220-Serial secures data transmissions at speeds up to 256K for RS-232, or up to 1024Kbps for RS-485/422.
Installation Caution: Wear a grounding strap or maintain a physical contact with equipment ground when setting the DIP switch. Failure to do so may result in failure of the media converter due to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Follow the normal procedures for installing this line card as described in the FRM220 Chassis Quick Start Guide.
RS-485/422 Termination Termination is used to match impedance of a node to the impedance of the transmission line being used. When impedances are mismatched, the transmitted signal is not completely absorbed by the load and a portion is reflected back into the transmission line. This reflection may cause errors in the data.
DIP Switch The 6 pole DIP switch is located on the serial converter's PCBA and is accessible from the front of the converter. Refer to the graphic for a brief description of each switch.
