Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Media Converter in industrial design Robust media converter for Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) and Ethernet (10 Mbps) Transparent conversion of the data External alarm contacts Connection for redundant power supply Effective overvoltage protection In addition to being deployed in local networks, Ethernet is spreading increasingly across production environments. Modern machine control systems and industrial plants are already equipped with 10/100Base-TX interfaces. Production environments can also benefit from flexible media conversion by employing fibre optics as they are insensitive against electromagnetic interference and do not suffer from galvanic separation, enable longer transmission distances, and are highly reliable. However, deployment of fibre optics for such as active hubs, switches, and media converters in office environments is fundamentally different from the deployment in production environments where fast initialisation, high robustness and availability, as well as fail safe operation are required. For this extremely demanding environment, MICROSENS has developed special media converters in industrial designs. The existing product range of Ethernet (10Base-FL/10Base-T) and Fast Ethernet (100Base-FX/100Base-TX) media converters has been complemented with new media converters for serial interfaces in production environments and RS-232/V.24, RS-422/V.11 and RS-485 copper/fibre optics converters. An integrated mounting device allows the direct installation on 35mm hat rails.
