Description
The SCR460ST-4, an SCR Series Media Converter, is used standalone or installed in a DCR12 Series Converter Chassis. This RS232/422/485 Serial to Fibre Converter has a Terminal Block port and a SC terminated singlemode fibre port, 20Km maximum range.
The SCR460SC-4 is a dual purpose Serial over Fibre Media Converter. It can be used as a standalone device, or can be installed as a Media Converter Module into any Alloy DCR12 Series 12-slot Media Converter Rackmount Chassis. The SCR460SC-4 has one triple mode circuit RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 Serial Terminal Block (primarily used to support RS-422 and RS-485 cables) and an SC terminated singlemode fibre port, enabling the Converter to extend data and control signaling over a fibre cable segment up to a maximum range of 20 kilometres. With auto baud rate (up to 460.8K) and direction control functions, the Converter automatically detects serial signal characteristics to operate automatically in RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 mode.
The SCR460SC-4 is a model from Alloy’s SCR Series of Dual Purpose Fibre over Serial Media Converters. As mentioned above, these Converters can be used ‘standalone’ or installed in an Alloy DCR12 Series Media Converter chassis. In addition to the SCR460SC-4, other models in the SCR Series offer Terminal Block and DB-9 serial copper connectivity, and SC or ST terminated multimode or singlemode fibre optic cable connectivity supporting ranges of up to 20 kilometres. All models in the SCR Series provide high EMI/EMS immunity, and have a compact yet robust all-metal case.
When used in ‘standalone’ mode as a discrete Media Converter device, all models in the SCR Series are powered by an external plugpack, which is supplied with the Converter. All SCR Series models have a comprehensive LED suite enabling status monitoring of the Converter.
