Entry-level RS-232 to RS-422/485 converters

The TCC-80/80I provides complete signal conversion between RS-232 and RS-422/485, without requiring an external power source. It supports both half duplex 2-wire RS-485 and full duplex 4-wire RS-422/485, either of which can be converted between RS-232's TxD and RxD lines. In addition,the TCC-80/80I's 15 KV ESD protection guards against damage from electrostatic discharge. The TCC-80I is the world's first high-speed, port-powered converter with 2.5 KV isolation.

The TCC-120 and TCC-120I are RS-422/485 converters/repeaters designed to extend RS-422/485 transmission distance. Both products have a superior industrial-grade design that includes DIN-rail mounting, terminal block wiring, and an external terminal block for power. In addition, the TCC-120I supports optical isolation for system protection. The TCC-120 and TCC-120I are ideal RS-422/485 converters/repeaters for critical industrial environments.

The TCC-82 provides full electrical isolation for bi-directional serial communication between two RS-232 devices in a compact, industrial grade package. Both sides of an RS-232 connection are isolated optically to provide perfect protection against lightning surges, accidental high voltage shorts, and ground loops. The built-in, wide range isolators are tested to ensure that they can withstand more than 4 KV rms input to output for 1 minute.
