Q. What type of cable do I need for RS-
422/485?
A. Category 5 cable is available as shielded
twisted pair (STP) as well as unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) and generally exceeds the
recommendations for RS-422 making it an
excellent choice for RS-422 and RS-485 systems.
Q. How do I wire the 485OP for
2-wire?
A. Make sure to externally jump TDA to RDA and
TDB to RDB.
Q. Do I have to run a signal ground on
the 485OP?
A. Yes, all of our Optically Isolated devices
require a signal ground.
