Omnitron iConverter RS232 Dual-Fiber

The Omnitron iConverter RS232 is a managed serial RS-232 to fiber converter that transmits serial protocol over fiber media. Fiber transmission extends the serial signals up to 120km, and is immune from electrical and magnetic interference.

The RS232 automatically detects the signal baud rate of the connected serial device, ranging from 110 to 921,600 baud. It also automatically adjusts to changes in the connected device's baud rate during operation without reconfiguration or interruption of service.

Connection to DTE or DCE devices is configured by an easily accessible DIP-switch on the front-panel of the module. This feature eliminates the need to use a null-modem cable when connecting two serial devices of the same type. A built-in Fiber Loop-Back DIP-switch provides easy validation of the entire fiber segment without interrupting fiber operations.

The RS232 is a member of the iConverter product family, and is designed to work in any iConverter chassis. When installed in a chassis, the RS232 can be remotely monitored and managed by software control.
