RS232 to RS485 Converter

RS232 TO RS485 CONVERTER

RS232 to RS485 Converter

RS232 to RS485 converter provide conversion between serial networks and other media. They can transparently convert RS232 signals to RS485 signals and vice versa without changing the PC’s hardware or software. The serial media converter lets you easily build an industrial grade, long-distance communication system with standard PC hardware. It comes with a built-in 120Ω terminator for system reliability and easy installation.

It also works as a Slave address decoder. The converter has ARM cortex-M0+ 32-bit controller where you can easily save the slave address using 7-pin DIP switch settings. The Slave address decoder is specifically meant for use in Data Concentrator Unit (DCU) where it is an industrial practice to connect multiple slaves to the DCU. Slave address decoder sits between the Slave and the DCU. It acts as the gateway to the slave giving access control, based on the address stored in the controller in the slave decoder. It provides LED indication for data transmission and reception. The enclosure is Industrial grade enclosed in a rugged & antirust housing.
