Fiber transmission extends the serial signals up to 120km, and is immune from electrical and magnetic interference.The RS232 supports single-mode, multimode, and single-fiber. The serial port interface is available with either a DB-9 female connector or terminal block connector for field wiring.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 Loopback DIP-switch provides easy validation of the entire fiber segment without interrupting fiber operations.iConverter RS232 modules are hot-swappable and can be mounted in a 19-Module (2U high) or 5-Module (1U high) rack-mountable chassis (19-inch or 23-inch) with any combination of redundant AC, 24VDC or 48VDC power supplies. They can also be mounted in a 2-Module AC or 18 to 60VDC powered chassis, or in a 1-Module AC/DC powered chassis.The iConverter family of managed fiber access media converters are used in Service Provider access networks and Enterprise LANs. iConverter media converters provide fiber connectivity with copper-to-fiber, multimode fiber to single-mode fiber, or dual fiber to single-fiber conversions.
