RS-232 Serial Data Over Fiber System

The RLH RS-232 Serial Data Over Fiber system is a converter that supports asynchronous serial communications over fiber optic cable. Fiber optics not only provide the long distance transmission capability up to 74 Miles (120km), but also provide immunity to EMI/RFI and transient surges. They are ideal for data communications near large electrical equipment or where radio interference needs to be avoided.

RS-232 devices can be connected directly to the DB-9 connector, supporitng serial data rates up to 115.2kbps, and is auto-sensing and self-compensating, requiring no switches, jumpers or other configuring.

They use 5VDC power and include either a 115/220VDC, 24 or 48VDC power adapter. To power multiple units, of for additional powering options, see our DIN mount power supply products here.
