Add isolation to an RS232 port to protect against ground loops. The OPTO-4 provides a safe and low cost way of connecting an RS422 (NMEA 0183) system to an RS232 (PC COM port) system, or any other device with a standard RS232 9-pin port.
- One RS422 OPTO-isolated input
- One RS422 (NMEA 0183) output
- Up to 115200 baud
- Port powered
- Shielded cable and case
The OPTO-4 provides comprehensive galvanic OPTO-isolation to protect the PC input/receiver, plus important spike suppression to improve the PC output/transmitter protection. Initially designed for systems wishing to receive NMEA 0183 data without the risk of ground loop damage, the flexible OPTO-4 can be used to interface any RS422 and standard RS232 connection, whilst powering itself from the RS232 port, making installation simple and very quick.
BENEFITS
- Protects PC input/receiver from damage
- Water resistant cable.
- Ruggedized over-moulded case suitable for harsh environment
- Quick and easy to install
