Description
The Black Box MED101A is an asynchronous serial extender that enables any two async serial devices to communicate half- or full-duplex over two multimode ST fibers at distances up to 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) . The extender supports RS232, RS422, and RS485 interface protocols, making it ideal for industrial applications that use different interface standards. The unit features three-way isolation at 2000-V input/output, protecting connected equipment from ground loops and electrical surges. For RS-485 operation, the extender uses data-derived or RTS transmit/receive switching. Indicator LEDs monitor signal and power status for easy troubleshooting. The extended ambient operating range makes this extender suitable for harsh industrial environments. The MED101A is ideal for point-to-point or ring topology serial communication in factory automation, security systems, and remote monitoring applications, and comes with a 5-Year Double Diamond Warranty .
