How to extend serial RS232 transmission distance
RS232 is an standard industrial control
port,many devices have such port,for example,PC,printer,projector etc.
Sometimes,the RS232 terminal equipement is
too far from communication equipement (for example PC). The RS232 signal can
not be transmitted for the long distance via RS232 cable.How to extend the
RS232 signal transmission distance.
There are three solutions for the RS232
extension.
Solution1: RS232 extend via ethernet
In the application diagram,the RS232 is
extended by two units RS232/Ethernet converter.This is RS232 point to point application.
In the diagram,the RS232 signal is
transmitted to PC by serial console converter.The RS232 conversion software
need to be installed in the PC.
Solution2: RS232 extend by fiber
If there is the fiber cable between the
RS232 terminal equipement and communication equipement,the RS232 signal can be
transmitted by fiber. BAUDCOM RS232 fiber modem can support the application.
The RS232 via fiber distance can be up to 120KM.
Solution3: RS232 extended via wireless
RS232 is transmitted via wireless,need not
to make kinds cables. BAUDCOM serial
rs232 to wifi ethernet converter can support the application.
