description

SUNIX FTD1218 converter provides interface exchange between RS-422/485 to fiber optic and vice-versa. Fiber media can provides stable data communication and also extends communication distance up to 40KM with single mode fiber and 2KM with multi mode fiber. As well, Fiber transmission is immune to electrical and magnetic interference, secure, and reliable.

SUNIX FTD1218 converter is designed with our unique RS-422/485 Auto Identify and Switch technology and auto baud rate detection, which enable user to switch communication mode or change connected devices without interruption of service. Furthermore, FTD1218 provides dual power input for redundant power capability to ensure non-stop operation.
