Transmit 4 Contact Closure Signals in Both Directions Over Fiber with Maximum Reliability
The RLH 4 Channel Bi-Directional Contact Closure Fiber Optic Converter transmits contact closure signals in both directions over fiber cable. Applications include alarm event triggering, building automation, environmental control systems, fire & alarm systems, gate control, traffic signal control equipment, and more.
Fiber optic cable is immune to RF noise and high voltages, and extends the signal transmission range up to 120km/74 miles, depending on the SFP transceiver used.
The Contact Closure Inputs will either sense a dry contact closure or a wetting DC voltage signal depending on the model. The output relays have both normally closed and normally open terminals available for each relay. Each unit features an NC/NO system alarm contact for system monitoring, and convenient LED indicators to view system status.
This hardened, rugged system is designed for standard T35 DIN rail mount or wall mount applications. The 8 Channel Contact Closure Fiber Optic Converter is designed, engineered and assembled in the USA, and is covered by our Lifetime Warranty.
