FAQs of Serial to Fiber Converter

What is an industrial serial to fiber converter?

An industrial serial to fiber converter is a device that converts serial data signals (such as RS-232, RS-485, or RS-422) into optical signals that can be transmitted over fiber optic cables. This conversion allows for long-distance communication while providing immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and environmental factors.

  • Point-to-point: Use the fiber converter in pair, transfer the serial signal on one fiber channel and achieve the simple point-to-point communication.
  • Multiplexing: Use the fiber multiplexing converter in pair, integrate and transfer 4/8 independent serial signals on one fiber channel and achieve the multi-to-multi serial communications by one fiber channel.
  • Chain network: The fiber converter/modem with 2 fiber ports (MWF501 series) can construct a chain fiber network and achieve multi-nodes communication.
  • Ring network: The fiber converter/modem with 2 fiber ports (MWF501 series) can construct a ring fiber network and achieve multinodes and redundance communication. When one modem or one fiber fault is down, the rest nodes can construct a chain network and keep the communication working well.

Firstly, the fiber converters can significantly extend the transmission distance of serial communication up to 100km.
Secondly, the fiber communication can avoid the impact and damage of lightning, surge and interference signals on communication, ensuring the safety and stability of the communication system.
Finally, the fiber converters that support multiple communication modes can bring more networking forms and redundance functions to serial communication.

No, it doesn’t support it. Because Ethernet switches use the universal TCP/IP protocol standard and they have wide compatibility. However, the serial to fiber converter currently does not have a universal transmission protocol standard, and each manufacturer designs it based on a proprietary protocol, making it incompatible with other brands of products.
