Fast auto TX-enable RS232 to RS485 interface converter for 2-wire, half-duplex communications, in point-to-point or multi-drop communications networks, at distances up to 4000 ft. and data rates up to 115.2Kbps.
 Galvanic (Opto/Xformer) Isolation helps eliminate noise, and protects equipment from destructive transients found in industrial applications.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION and TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:
The IHV24XT is a fast Async bi-directional RS232 to RS485 INTELLIGENT interface converter for 2-wire, half-duplex applications, with an automatic TX enable circuit, that will operate at data rates up to 115.2Kbps. The unit has jumpers for bias, termination, RS232 DTE/DCE selection, and operating mode settings. The unit has five LED indicators, a removavle RS485 screw terminal strip, one RJ11/12 RS232 connector, and uses a limited slew rate transceivers. Galvanic isolation between the RS232 and RS485 helps to eliminate a wide variety of problems encountered in industrial and/or real world applications.
The IHV24XT is designed for office and/or industrial applications, and provides superior characteristics/features normally found only on more expensive units. The IHV24XT can be used in outdoor applications; however, many factors can affect reliable operations. Please call for additional information and/or peruse our Fiber Optic product line (compatible with our "copper" converters).
