Non-radiating and insensitive to noise

The model 81009 Interface transmits serial RS232 data via plastic duplex fibers over a distance of up to 80 meters. The converter powers itself from the serial port and so usually requires no additional power supply.

Interfaces:

• RS232 Interface
  • 9-pin SUB-D female, ready to connect to a PC
• 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:

• Transmission length 5 to 80 meters. Distances < 5 meters are possible using model 81029.
• 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:

• No additional power source required

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

The model 81009 Interface powers itself from the signal lines of the serial interface and requires no additional external power supply when operated on standard RS232 interfaces.

If however there are supply problems due to low-power interfaces, it is always possible to externally power the interface with up to 9V using its handshake inputs, or to use fiber-optic interfaces having their own power supply (e.g. model 81201).

With model 81029 there is also a 9-pin special version available whose transmission distance is limited to from 0 to 20m, but which only places an approx. 2mA load on the connected RS232 interface. With this version it is also possible to run on lower power RS232 interfaces without the need for an additional voltage source.
