Robust RS-232 to RS-485 Serial Isolator/Converter

Model: rdc485ic

rdc485ic The rdc485ic safely and effectively connects your sensitive, short-distance RS-232 ports to robust long-distance RS-485 lines. Full galvanic plus optical isolation limits the effects of surge and noise. Supporting RS-422 and RS-485 (both 2 or 4-wire), the rdc485ic saves you engineering time and money by simplifying your testing, installation, and maintenance.

Robust DataComm has solution to all your Data Communication objectives.

The data communication ports of all computers and most intelligent field devices were designed for the office and not industry. You may not even suspect some of the problems this can cause, but they include:

Ground Loop
  • Burned comm ports - and even hard disks and video cards too!
  • Random system reboots
  • Applications hanging or crashing which cannot be duplicated in the lab
  • Intermittent data comm failures
  • Frequent site visits with spiraling labor and transportation costs
  • Waning customer confidence in your products and expertise

Three-way Galvanic Isolation is the RDC Difference

RobustDC products offer full three-way galvanic isolation keeping both data ports and the power supply fully isolated from each other. Don't settle for cheap isolators designed to isolate only one of the device's data ports.

Galvanic Isolation
Why Galvanically Isolate?

The main culprit is the office-grade assumption that all grounds are the same, so ground loops are Ok. Plus your RS-232 ground wire acts as a big antenna to bring in all kinds of noise and surges in to affect your hard disk and CPU.

Full galvanic isolation protects your computer, your scope of supply, your work schedule, and your reputation.
