Data and control lines galvanically isolated

The Isolator in the compact dongle housing provides galvanic isolation between two RS232 devices with an isolation voltage of 4kV DC and also supports another four handshake signals in addition to the data lines.

Interfaces:

• 2x RS232 ports
  • 25-pin SUB-D plug, DCE assignment
  • 25-pin SUB-D socket, DTE assignment
• Galvanic isolation between the ports
  • Isolation voltage 4kV DC

Management and Connectivity:

• Secure RS232 transmission over medium distances
• Simple to use, true plug-and-play
• No re-configuration of transmission parameters required

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

Elimination of interference:
The use of isolators in data lines eliminates the effects of interference to which the PC is otherwise subjected through its data cables (ground loops, antenna effects, potential differences), remote lightning strikes).

Electrical isolators are not to be confused with surge protectors that are often incorrectly marketed for the same purpose: Surge protectors have no effect on equalizing currents that exist between the connected devices due to the potential differences, and they cannot prevent damage to interface components by such currents.
