Multi-Protocol RS232/422/485 Data Transceiver

Featuring Self-Healing Ring Operation

FDX57 SERIES

The ComNet™ FDX57 series Self-Healing Ring Transceiver unit is a fully-digital modem designed for implementing RS232, RS422 or RS485 2 or 4-wire data communications networks of the highest possible reliability. A network of FDX57 units can support one full-duplex or two half-duplex data channels. These transceivers also feature data translation to convert between data protocols. Data re-clocking and regeneration permit an almost unlimited number of transceiver/controller units to be used within the network. These environmentally hardened transceivers are ideal for use in unconditioned out-of-plant or roadside installations and, unlike many competing designs, only one optical fiber is required between units to implement a fully selfhealing ring. Plug-and-play design ensures ease of installation, and no electrical or optical adjustments are ever required.

FEATURES

› Meets EIA RS232 and RS422/RS485 (2 or 4-wire)

specifications (Simplex or Duplex Operation)

› Two Data Channel Capability: One full duplex or two half-

duplex channels

› Only one optical fiber required between units for Fault

Tolerant/Self-Healing Ring Operation

› Full data re-clocking and regeneration: no limit to the number

of transceiver units used within the network

› Supports supervised multiple master architecture for

unparalleled network reliability

› Remote Fault Indication allows the user to determine when a

fiber break or loss of prime operating power has occurred, or a transceiver in the field has failed

› May be used to provide serial data protocol conversion

between nodes (consult factory)

› Tested and certified by an independent laboratory for full

compliance with the environmental requirements (ambient operating temperature, mechanical shock, vibration, humidity with condensation, high-line/low-line voltage conditions and transient voltage protection) of NEMA TS-1/TS-2 and the Caltrans Specification for Traffic Signal Control Equipment.

› Robust design assures extremely high reliability in

unconditioned out-of-plant/roadside environments

› NTCIP compatible

HARDENEDINCLUDED

› Voltage transient protection on all power and signal input/

output lines provides protection from power surges and other voltage transient events.

› Wide optical dynamic range: optical attenuators are never

required

› Indicating LEDs display equipment operating status,

including the location of fiber breaks or failed transceivers

› Hot-swappable rack modules

› Interchangeable between stand-alone or rack mount use –

ComFit

› May be DIN-rail mounted by the addition of ComNet model

DINBKT1 or DINBKT4 adaptor plate.

› Lifetime Warranty

1 OR 2*

APPLICATIONS
