Advantech has announced the first two modules in a series of ST connectors, the ADAM-6541-ST, an ethernet to multimode ST fibre-optic converter and the ADAM-6521-ST, a five-port industrial 10/100 Mbps ethernet switch with one multimode fibre-optic ST point.
The 'ST' refers to the new type of fibre-optic connector that these modules feature, which is designed as a plug and socket that locks with a half-twist bayonet lock (similar to BNC), for an extremely secure connection.
The connectors and converters feature a wide operation protection and long-distance transmissions.
With fibre-optic capabilities the user can prevent noise and implement transmission over distances up to 15 km. Moreover, fibre-optic transmissions are much quicker and more reliable than standard ethernet transmissions.
The connectors also feature three different mounting options, DIN rail, wall/panel and piggyback stack. The three designs provide installation in any environment and reduce installation costs.
