FT010CB Series Installation & Operation Manual

(2) Product Overview

2.1 Introduction

The FT010CB Series products comprise of either single-mode or multi-mode fiber optic
transmitters and receivers for the optical transmission of ONE bi-directional (Tx ↔ Rx) contact
closure signals all on one fiber. The products work at wavelengths of 1310nm and 1550nm with
either a 9/125um or 62.5/125um fiber for single-mode or multi-mode transmission respectively.

Bi-directional transmission of Contact Closure (CC) status is supported. The CC input can
be a Dry contact or a TTL logic input. Normally Open (NO) or Normally Close (NC) Contact
selectable output is provided for a maximum current of 1000mA at 110VDC/125VAC.

For single-mode transmission, we also offer specifically designed products for long-haul
transmissions up to 60km. These models include the letter “L” in the suffix, e.g. FT010CB-SSTRL
for Tx, FT010CB-SSRTL for Rx, etc.

The FT010CB Series units are available as standalone units, which can be mounted
horizontally or vertically wall-mounted on any fixture. The standalone unit comes with an external
power supply FT-PA/12V, which can be powered by local 110/220V power.

The FT010CB Series units are also available as plug-in card modules installed in a 19”
rack-mount chassis. Each plug-in card occupies one slot in the rack-mount chassis. The rack
mount chassis has to be ordered separately, and comes with its own power supply for powering
the installed card modules.
