1 Product Description

The TIP866-TM-20 is a complete interface solution for the TIP866-10 (8 serial channels RS232), the
TIP866-20 (8 serial channels RS422) and the TIP867-10 (8 serial channels RS485). The TIP866-TM­20 comes with a TA106-10 cable (0.8m ribbon cable with 50 pin ribbon cable connectors).

The 8 serial ports of the TIP866-10/-20 or the TIP867-10 are routed to 8 RJ45 connectors located in
the 6U/4TE front panel of the TIP866-TM-20.

Jumper fields are provided for each channel to select the port configuration (DTE / DCE) for RS232
(Jn1 / Jn2) or RS422 (Jn3 / Jn4) and to select termination for the RS422 receiver (Jn5: 5-6, 7-8) or
RS485 (Jn5: 1-2, 3-4).

A two pin screw terminal (X9) can be used to provide +5V to pin 1 of the RJ45 connectors of channel 3
to 8 and to supply the on board termination for RS422 and RS485. The +5V can be individually
selected by jumper for each of the channels 3 to 8 (Jn5: 9-10).

TXD, RXD, RTS, CTS and GND are supported for each of the 8 serial channels of the TIP866-10
(RS232). Additionally DCD and DTR are supported for channel 1 and 2.

TXD+/-, RXD+/- and GND are supported for the TIP866-20 (RS422) and DX+/- and GND are
supported for the TIP867-10 (RS485).

This transition module can also be used with the IP-Octals. If the TIP866-TM-20 is used with the IP­Octal RS232: do not connect jumpers on J11, J12, J21, J22: 9-10 and 11-12 because the IP-Octal
RS232 does not support DCD and DTR on serial channel 1 and 2.

Figure 4-2 : Pin Assignment of RJ45 Connector TIP866-TM-20 Channel 3 to 8

Jn1 to Jn4: n = 1 to 8 identifies jumper fields for serial channel 1 to 8.
Default configuration for TIP866-TM-20: jumper installed on Jn1 => RS232 DTE.
Channel 1 and 2 of the TIP866-TM-20 additionally support DCD and DTR for the TIP866-10.
Support of +5V on pin 1 of the RJ45 connector for channel 3 to 8 is jumper selectable (Jn5: 9-

10) and requires +5V connected to connector X9 (2 pin screw terminal).
Do not use the on board termination of the TIP866-TM-20 when connecting a TIP866-20 (RS422)

because there are termination resistors on the TIP866-20 !
