Product catalog summary
Introduction
The RD320-OF is a versatile media converter that integrates three serial interfaces: RS232, RS422, and RS485, supporting speeds up to 500 Kbps for RS232 and 2 Mbps for RS422/485. It ensures reliable communication even in environments with EMI/RFI disturbances and supports fiber lengths up to 20 km using SC type connectors. The device offers automatic RS485 line turn-around and supports both half-duplex and full-duplex data transmission. It features activity LEDs for fiber and copper signals and an error LED for fiber breakdowns. The power range is wide, from +9VDC to +36VDC, and it includes 15 KV ESD protection and HF filtering on the copper side. The RD320-OF is housed in a robust metal case, compliant with CE standards, and is designed for 35 mm Din Rail mounting.

Advantages of Fiber Optic
Using fiber optic technology provides higher communication bandwidth, immunity to EMI/RFI interferences, and increased security. It is safe for use in explosive environments, emits no EMC, avoids ground loops, and is immune to lightning and high voltage environments. Fiber optics are also lighter, less cumbersome, inert, and corrosion-resistant.

Plug & Play Feature
The RD320-OF features a self-configuration mechanism based on a CPLD component, eliminating the need for manual serial parameter setup. It includes a built-in system to monitor fiber integrity, automatically reporting failures via an error LED and activating a relay contact for external safety devices.
