Black Box ME661A-MST Flexpoint Async RS232 Extender - Fiber DB9 Female ST MM 5-km

Flexpoint Async RS232 Extender - Fiber DB9 Female ST MM 5-km

Extend async RS232 devices beyond the 50 ft limitation using multimode cables at data rates up to 115.2 kbps and reach distances of 3.1 mi. (5 km). Serial extenders work well in factory automation, building automation, and process automation where PLC's with RS232 interfaces are used to control devices. The ability to extend the distance to their devices over multimode fiber while also adding protection from electrical interference, which can be caused by large motors, which are prevalent in these environments, is very beneficial.
