IBT-100--Adapter

RS-232-C to CS-Bus Intelligent Bus Translator/Firewall

Safe and Reliable Plug-n-Play Connectivity with CS-Bus Equipment

Sophisticated Commercial Grade design assures reliable communication. Built-in processor accurately connects CS-Bus equipment to and translates communication to industry standard RS-232-C interfaces.

Enables Serial Connectivity Over Long Wire Lengths

Standard RS-232-C wiring runs typically are not reliable beyond 50 feet. This device enables connectivity to serial devices up to 4000 feet away using CAT5 wiring.

Opto-Isolation

Optically isolates sensitive buses from each other and eliminates any possibility of ground loops and other electrically-induced noise which can interrupt reliable bus communication.

Static Protection

Offers built-in static and surge protection to 16,000 volts, significantly above that offered by competing products.

Firewall Protection

CS-Bus and RS-485 networks have strict communication requirements including collision avoidance, recovery and packet timing. This product links outside control devices with these networks to ensure reliable predictable performance while not interfering with proprietary traffic encountered on these buses.
