CYGNUS 883 RS232 Port Extender

CYGNUS 883 Multisignal RS232 port extender allows asynchronous RS232 port to be extended across fiber lines. CYGNUS 883 is different from regular modems which typically transport only Transmit Data and Receive Data signals. The CYGNUS 883 Extender on the other hand can transport 8 signals in each direction. Useful in time-critical applications such as Train Collision Avoidance Systems.

Features:

  • CYGNUS 883 allows asynchronous RS232 port to be extended across fiber
  • CYGNUS 883 multi-signal RS232 port allows up to 8 full duplex pairs of signals to be transported on fiber
  • It support with two fiber interfaces: Main and Backup. The Backup Link acts as a hot standby for the Main Link, and takes over on failure of the Main Link.
  • Driving range is up to 15 km on Single Mode Fiber, and 2 km on Multi-mode Fiber
  • It support 230VAC, 24 VDC or 48 VDC power supply
  • 1500 V AC/DC isolation is provided between external power supply and RS232 port
