Serial Fiber Optic Interfaces
Subject to error and alteration
Glass fiber optic transmission lines are the solution of choice
when you need to implement absolutely noise-free serial data
transmission over long distances and/or in noisy environments.
Whereas the attenuation with plastic fiber optics places a limit
of maximum 100 meters on the attainable cable length, the
distances achievable with glass fiber optics are significantly
greater and at a comparable cable cost.
Wiesemann & Theis offers an entire family of various fiber optic
interfaces that allow you to convert the critical serial ports into
an optical port for connecting glass fiber optic cable.
This interface family is described on the following pages along
with the corresponding technical data and including connec-
tion examples.
