Description
The TC1000 is low in
price and high in reliability. It is plug compatible with RS-232 interfaces
and will transmit asynchronous data at speeds up to 19.2 Kbps. It supports
both single mode (1300/1550nm) and multimode (850/1300nm) formats. Fiber
optic connectors are ST or FC. An
extreme temperature version (-20°C to 70°C), Model TC1000T, is also
available.
Electrical connectors are
DB25 female. It is DCE/DTE switchable. For most applications, the TC1000
derives power though any of the standard EIA control signals (pins 4, 8, 20)
or positive voltage line (pin 9). An external power supply (115/230VAC) may
be required when signal power is not adequate to drive the TC1000.

Typical
Application
(Application
Questions)
Typical applications include
linking remote terminals or printers to host computers, tail circuits to
existing multiplexers and extending data communications links. Fiber optic
modems are also ideal for connecting data communications devices in harsh
manufacturing or outdoor environments where EMI or RFI interference, ground
loops and lightning are prevalent.
