Converters link HP fiber optic terminals to RS-232 ports.
Press Release Summary:
Fiber 232 HP Fiber/RS-232 Converters connect fiber optic linked terminals to controller that has RS-232 interface port. System offers full duplex connection between 2 devices, and ports of connected terminals are protected from damage by potential differences between them. While Fiber 232 Model 4137 connects via DB-9 connector, Model 4139 connects via RJ-45 connector. Both provide full galvanic isolation between connected devices, and data transfer rate is greater than 20 Kbps.
Original Press Release:
Fiber232 Converters Connect HP Fiber Optic Linked Terminals to the RS-232 Port of the Controller
Electro Standards Laboratories (ESL), Cranston, RI, announces its new Fiber 232 HP Fiber/RS-232 Converters. These converters connect fiber optic linked terminals to a controller having an RS-232 interface port. While the RS-232 is a versatile communication standard, the advantage of conversion to a fiber optic communication standard is that the data transmission is no longer susceptible to electrostatic or electromagnetic fields. This system offers full duplex connection between two devices having RS-232 ports. Plus, the ports of the connected terminals are protected from damage by potential differences (ground variations) that exist between them.
The Fiber 232 Model 4137 connects via a DB-9 connector; Model 4139 connects via an RJ-45 connector. These products convert RS-232 serial communication interface to HP Versatile Link Plastic Core cable. They provide full galvanic isolation (no metallic connection) between connected devices. The data transfer rate is greater than 20 Kbps. These converters are configurable for use at the DCE and the DTE. Electro Standards also supplies HP Versatile Link Plastic Core cables.
