Electronics components/systems catalogues released
There are more than 1200 innovations among 18,000 electronic components listed in the latest range of catalogues including industrial connection, cabling, surge protection, automation and so on.
Expanded output voltage range of 48V power adapter
The output voltage of the 48V power supply units from Phoenix Contact can be set between 30 and 56 V DC and are designed to ensure low power loss in the case of long routing paths.
At the same time, the product range includes solutions for 10 and 100Mbps, depending on the required optical range and transfer bandwidth.
Distances up to 50m are ideally implemented with low-cost and easy-to-handle polymer fiber technology.
For ranges up to 200m, the easy-to-assemble 200/230 microns HCS fiber comes into use.
If greater distances are required or if the intention is to use an existing fiber-optic installation, device versions are available that meet the FL standard for 10 Mbps with 850 nm technology and the FX standard for 100 Mbps in 1300 nm technology.
With these, distances of up to ten kilometers can be achieved over multimode glass fiber and 36 kilometers over single-mode glass fiber.
The media converters are equipped with a link monitoring system that separately monitors the availability of the cable link and the connected devices for TP and fiber-optic ports.
Devices can be operated both as standalone units and in a modular system network.
Here the power supply can come either from the integrated backplane in the base of the housing or separately with 24V DC via pluggable screw terminals. Request a free brochure from Phoenix Contact ...
