W&T 81201 Interface - Plastic fiber optic

W&T 81201 Interface - Plastic fiber optic

Model: 81201

$149.00

Universal POF converter for any RS232 interface

The model 81201 Interface transmits serial RS232 data via plastic duplex fibers over a distance of up to 100 meters. The external power makes this Interface suitable also for connecting to low-power RS232 ports.

 

Interfaces:

  • RS232 Interface
    • 9-pin SUB-D connector with PC pin configuration
  • Fiber optics interface
    • Direct connection of the fiber optic cable without a connector
    • Alternate names: POF (polymer optical fiber, plastic optical fiber)

Management and connectivity:

  • The interface is very easy to install:
    • Cut the fiber-optic cable with a sharp knife at right angles.
    • Insert into patented adapter of the W&T interface.
    • Plug the adapter into the PC.
    • That’s it!
  • No re-configuration of transmission parameters required
  • 100% protection against interfering radiation
  • Electrical isolation
  • Lightning protection

Power supply:

  • External
    • 12V-24V AC/DC via plug-in screw terminal
    • Galvanically isolated power connection
    • External supply also makes it suitable for low-power RS232 interfaces

Standards & more

  • Conforms to standards both in office and industrial environments:
    • High noise resistance per EN 61000-6-2
    • Low noise emission per EN 55032:2015 + A1 Cl. B, EN 61000-3-2 & EN 61000-3-3

 

RS232 ports do not always provide the necessary power for reliably achieving a transmission distance of 100 meters using the elegant solution of self-powered fiber optics interfaces. In these cases the model 81201 Interface with its own power source solves the problem.
