EXSYS EX-47920 RS-232 serieel converter repeater isolator, zwart

RS-232 serial converter, repeater, and isolator in one compact metal housing. The EX-47920 regenerates and optically isolates RS-232 signals, protecting connected equipment from ground loops, surges, and ESD up to 15 kV. With support for data rates up to 115.2 kbps and all standard modem control signals, it ensures reliable communication over extended distances and in harsh electrical environments.

Advantages

Optical isolation of 2.5 kV RMS breaks ground loops and eliminates common-mode noise. The repeater function restores signal integrity, allowing cable runs beyond the standard RS-232 limit. Both port-powered and external DC operation offer flexible deployment. LED indicators for power, TxD, and RxD provide instant status feedback.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation and PLC programming
• Point-of-sale terminals and barcode scanners
• Laboratory instruments and data acquisition
• Building management and access control systems
• Any RS-232 link exposed to electrical interference
