Media Converter_9723

The Ethernet media converters for installation in Zone 1 are used for conversion and galvanic separation of intrinsically safe Ethernet via copper/CAT cable (TX) to optical Ethernet via fibre optic cables (FX).The copper Ethernet signal is designed with "ia" inherent safety type of protection, while the optical Ethernet signal meets the requirements of class 1 according to IEC 60825-1. Both interfaces are suitable for operation in hazardous areas of Zones 1 and 2. This means that industrial Ethernet cables and fibre optic cables can also be used in hazardous areas and may be connected and disconnected during operation (i.e. hot plug).Due to the limited cable length of copper Ethernet (max. 100 m), the media converter is ideal for operating the IS1+ Remote I/O system and enables transmission lengths to reach up to several kilometres.
