Product catalog summary
Application Overview: The TROVIS 5486 Line Splitter is designed to connect multiple controllers from the TROVIS Series 5100, 5400, and 5500 to a control station via a modem. It splits the RS-232-C signal from a modem interface into two ports: X3 for a controller managing the modem and X2 for additional controllers. This setup eliminates the need for a coupling computer.
Specifications: The Line Splitter supports asynchronous data transmission in full/half duplex or simplex modes. It features three interface ports: X1 (RS-232-C, 9-pin SUB-D), X2 (RS-232-C/RS-485), and X3 (RS-232-C). The data transmission rate ranges from 0 to 100000 bit/s. Transmission distances are 15 m for RS-232-C and up to 1200 m for RS-485. The device includes electrical isolation and operates on a 230 V AC power supply with a maximum consumption of 3.5 VA.
Technical Features: The Line Splitter is equipped with four LEDs indicating power, transmission, reception, and status. It provides electrical isolation between interfaces and uses transformers for supply isolation. The device is compliant with EN 61000-6-2 for noise immunity and EN 61000-6-3 for noise emission. It operates within an ambient temperature range of 5 to 50 °C and supports up to 95% relative humidity.
Accessories: Available accessories include hubs with modular jacks for wall or rail mounting and cable converters for RS-232/RS-485 connections. Various bus connection cables are also available.
Installation and Mounting: The Line Splitter can be mounted using rubber pads or Velcro strips. It is housed in a black ABS plastic case with an aluminum back panel and weighs 0.4 kg.
Typical Application: A typical setup involves connecting the Line Splitter to a modem and telephone network, with controllers having either active or deactivated modem functions. The setup may include hubs and bus connection cables depending on the controller type.

Line Splitter TROVIS 5486-1

Application Connection of several controllers of the TROVIS Series 5100, 5400 und 5500 over a modem to a control station The TROVIS 5486 Line Splitter divides the RS-232-C signal of a modem interface X1 to two interface ports: portX3 fora controller which controls the modem, and port X2 for one or more controllers. This allows two or more controllers to be connected to a control station via a modem without requiring a coupling computer. The controller at port X3 always functions with a RS-232-C signal. The modem function must be activated. Controllers at port X2 can be equipped with either a RS-232-C or RS-485 interface. The modem function should be deactivated. An example of application is shown on the following page. The connecting cable (6-pin RJ-12 connector) as well as the modem cable (standard 9-pin SUB-D female connector) are included in the scope of delivery.
