Applications
An Ethernet to Fiber Media Converter can also be used where there is high level of electromagnetic interference or EMI which is a common phenomenon found in industrial plants. This interference can cause corruption of data over copper-based ethernet links. Data transmitted over fiber optic cable however is completely immune to this type of noise. An Ethernet to Fiber Optic Converter therefore enables you to inter-connect your copper-ethernet devices over fiber ensuring optimal data transmission across the plant floor.

How To Choose a Protocol Converter?
1. Software Protocol Converters
2. Hardware Protocol Converters
Some of the most popular industrial automation protocols are DF-1, CAN (Controller Area Network), RS232 converter, RS422 converter, ControlNet, DeviceNet, HostLink Protocol, Profibus, Modbus, Honeywell SDS, HART Protocol, EtherNet/IP etc. And some Industrial control system protocols like MTConnect, OPC and OPC UA. Select the protocol converter that best matches your application and communication setup, keeping in mind three key features:
- Number of connections—some converters support single connections, while others provide as many as 32 multiple connections with multiple serial ports.
- Baud rate—we have seen converters with baud rates as high as 921kbaud. Converters with lower baud rates are less expensive, but their performance is slower.
- Connectivity protocol—the converter must support the protocol used by your network, either TTL serial, RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485.
Consider the number of connections, baud rate and connectivity protocol, you can finally buy a protocol converter meet your applications.
