FibroLAN Non IEEE802.3x Miscellaneous Converters

The FC32 series allows extension of standard RS232 links (up to 115.2Kbps) to very large distances (up to 150km) over link fiber. This is achieved by translating the incoming RS232 signal (via a DB9 connector) to a very high bit rate, then converted to an optical signal over m/m or s/m fiber. FC32 devices must be deployed in pairs. SFS (Single-Fiber-Strand) models are available upon request .

FC32 Fiber Optic Line Extender

FibroLAN?s FC32 is a stand alone device allowing full duplex transmission of RS232 signals over a fiber line at distances of up to 2 km using multimode fiber cable and up to 100km with single mode fiber cables.  A typical installation uses a set of two FC32 units connected to each other by a fiber cable while their copper ports are connected to the serial ports of the user?s devices as described in the attached picture.  FibroLAN?s FC32 line extender supports the full set of 8 RS232 signals (TxD, RxD, RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, DCD, Ri) as well as any subset of it.

The device utilizes a unique design that is transparent to the protocol details such as number of stop bits or baud rate.  
FC32 devices must be deployed in pairs.

Key Features

? Supports full set of 8 RS232 signals
? Extends distance between devices up to 100km
? Extensive diagnostics for easy maintenance
? Plug and play operation
? Baud rates up to 256Kbauds
? DC powered and Industrial temperature range options
? 4W power consumption.

FC42 Fiber Optic Line Extender

FibroLAN?s FC42 is a stand alone device allowing the transmission of RS485 or RS422 signals over a fiber line at distances of up to 2 km using multimode fiber cable and
up to 100km with single mode fiber cables.  A typical installation uses a set of two FC42 units connected to each other by a fiber cable while their copper ports connected to the serial ports of the users devices as described in the attached picture.

FibroLAN?s FC42 line extender supports RS485 4 wire full duplex operation.  Switch selecteable terminations allow installation at the edge of the bus.  The device utilizes a unique design that is transparent to the types of data being transmitted thus supporting NRZ and NRZI protocols. The line extender can be installed at any segment of an RS485 network as well as in between network segments.  FC42 devices are deployed in pairs.

Key Features

? Supports both RS-422 and RS-485
? Extends distance between devices up to 100km
? Extensive diagnostics for easy maintenance
? Setup switches for diverse topologies
? Rates up to 256Kbauds
? DC powered and Extended Temperature Range options
? 4W Operation
