Description
The TCF-142-RM Series slide-in modules are serial-to-fiber converters that work with the TRC-190 chassis. The modules convert from the RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 signal to a fiber-optic signal.
Automatic Baudrate Detection
The TCF-142-RM Series can automatically detect the serial
baud rate. This is an extremely convenient feature. Even if a device’s baud
rate is changed, the signal will still be transmitted through the media
converter without any problem.
Ring Operation
The TCF-142 converters can be used to connect serial devices to a fiber ring. To form the ring, connect the Tx port of one TCF-142 to the Rx port of a neighboring converter. Once the ring is set up, use the DIP switches to configure the TCF-142 converters for ring mode. When one node transmits a signal, the signal travels around the ring until it returns back to the transmitting unit, which then blocks the signal. With the TCF-142, you can set up fiber rings that have a total circumference of up to 100 km.
You can also find the TCF-142-M-SC-RM, TCF-142-M-ST-RM, and TCF-142-M-ST-T models in the Industrial Media Converters.
