TC1720
High Speed' RS422/449Fiber Optic Modem (Async/Sync)

Intended for high speed data connectivity applications, the TC1710 RS 449 Fiber Optic Modem supports asynchronous data rates up to 10Mbps and synchronous rates up to 5Mbps.

The TC1720 is Profibus compatible and supports a wide range of high speed data applications including connecting satellite downlinks, DSUs, CSUs and various Crypto devices. Interfaces are modular and include RS 232, RS 422, RS 485 (2/4-wire), RS 530, V.35 and TTL. Interfaces can be easily changed before or after installation.

Diagnostics are extensive and include a built-in Test Signal Generator, local & remote loopback & LEDs for Power, Alarm, Tx, Rx and all applicable control signals. The Test Signal Generator verifies both device & fiber optic link operation. Distances up to 80km are typical. Power redundancy is standard, optical redundancy is optional.
