Comnet RLFDX485M2/48DC Substation-Rated Serial Data Link/Repeaters

Substation-Rated RS-485 Serial Data link/Repeaters, MM 2 Fiber, 48VDC.

The ComNet RLFDX series of link/repeaters are substation-rated and industrially hardened form, fit, function completely backwards-compatible replacements for the popular Garrettcom/Dymec 5845-series link/repeaters. They designed deployment in environments where high levels electromagnetic noise interference (EMI) severe voltage transients surges routinely encountered, such as electrical utility substations switchyards, heavy manufacturing facilities, trackside roadside electronic equipment, other difficult out-of-plant applications. Optical connectivity provides significantly extended transmission distances compared to copper media; isolation; enhanced reliability protection peripheral IEDs, RTUs, equipment; andoperational safety.  The easily field-configurable point-topoint, point-to-multipoint/master-slave, loop, or bus topologies. extremely versatile simple-to-install is ideal any mission-critical application very network availability utmost importance.

• Fully electrically, mechanically, optically identical backward-compatible with 5843, 5844, 5845, 5846 Series. A may directly replace Dymec unit anywhere within network
• Full-duplex, half-duplex, simplex RS-485
• Certified meet exceed requirements IEEE 1613 Class substations, EN60950 1, Division (Groups A, B, C, & D) use hazardous locations
• Diagnostic test mode feature tests connections before connected IED RTU active network
• Extended ambient operating temperature range -40º +85º no fan/forced air cooling, virtually environment
