Omnitron Systems iConverter RS232 Managed Serial RS-232 to Fiber Media Converter

The iConverter RS232 is a managed serial RS-232 to fiber converter that transmits serial protocol over fiber media. The RS232 media converters operate in pairs, extending serial distances over fiber up to 120km, which improves noise immunity from electrical and magnetic interference.

The RS232 is available with a single-mode dual fiber, multimode dual fiber or single-mode single-fiber transceiver. The serial port interface is available with either a DB-9 female connector or terminal block connector for field wiring.

The RS232 automatically detects the signal data rate of the connected serial device, ranging from 110 bps to 921,600 bps. It also automatically adjusts to changes in the connected device's data rate during operation without reconfiguration or interruption of service.

Connection to DTE or DCE devices are configured by an easily accessible DIP-switch on the front-panel of the module. This feature eliminates the need to use a null-modem cable when connecting two serial devices of the same type.

A built-in Fiber Loopback DIP-switch provides easy validation of the entire fiber segment without interrupting fiber operations. iConverter RS232 modules are hot-swappable and can be mounted in a 19-Module (2U high) or 5-Module (1U high) rack mountable chassis (19-inch or 23-inch) with redundant AC, 24VDC or 48VDC power supplies. They can also be mounted in a 2-Module AC or 18 to 60VDC powered chassis, or in a 1-Module AC or DC powered chassis.

• SNMP management via NetOutlook® provides module status information, remote parameter configuration and trap notification


• Management is available with the addition of a management module to the chassis


• Modules are hot-swappable in 19-Module, 5-Module, 2-Module or 1-Module chassis


• Remote fiber loopback switch for easy testing of fiber link, even during serial transmission


• Supports RTS, CTS, DCD, DTR and DSR controls


• DIP-switch configuration of DTE or DCE device for easy connection to serial devices


• DB-9 and Terminal Block connector options for serial RS-232 interface


• Supports distances up to 5km on multimode and 120km on single-mode


• Multimode, single-mode dual fiber with ST, SC and LC connectors, and single-mode single-fiber with SC connectors


• Supports bit rates ranging from 110 bps to 921,600 bps
