Overview

Introduction

The TCF-142-RM series fiber converters are slide-in modules that can be

installed in the NRack System’s rackmount chassis, such as the TRC-190

series. The slide-in module is equipped with a multiple interface circuit

that can handle RS-232 or RS-422/485 serial interfaces, and multi-mode

or single-mode fiber. The TCF-142-RM series slide-in modules are used to

extend serial transmission distance up to 5 km (TCF-142-M-XX-RM, with

multi-mode fiber) or up to 40 km (TCF-142-S-XX-RM, with single-mode

fiber).

Why Convert Serial to Fiber?

Fiber communication not only extends the communication distance, but

also provides many advantageous features. IMMUNITY FROM

ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE: Fiber is not affected by electromagnetic

interference or radio frequency interference. It provides a clean

communication path and is immune to cross-talk. INSULATION: Optical

fiber is an insulator; the glass fiber eliminates the need for using electric

currents as the communication medium. SECURITY: Fiber cannot be

tapped by conventional electric means and is very difficult to tap into

optically. Furthermore, radio and satellite communication signals can be

captured easily for decoding. RELIABILITY & MAINTENANCE: Fiber is

immune to adverse temperature and moisture conditions, does not

corrode or lose its signal, and is not affected by short circuits, power

surges, or static electricity.

No Configuration Required for Baudrate Settings

The TCF-142-RM slide-in modules work under any baudrate from 50 bps

to 921.6 Kbps. The TCF-142-RM slide-in modules simply convert the

signal back and forth between serial (RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485) and

fiber, and since the TCF-142-RM slide-in modules do not need to interpret

the signal, it does not need to know the baudrate of the transmitting

device. For this reason, the TCF-142-RM slide-in modules do not have any

DIP switches or jumpers for setting the baudrate.

Ring Mode

To allow one half-duplex serial device to communicate with multiple

half-duplex devices connected to a fiber ring, you should configure the

TCF-142-RM slide-in modules for “ring mode” by setting DIP switch “SW3”

to the “On” position. The Tx port of a particular TCF-142-RM slide-in

modules unit connects to the neighboring converter’s Rx port to form the

ring. Note that when one node transmits a signal, the signal travels

around the ring until it returns to the transmitting unit, which then blocks

the signal. Users should ensure that the total fiber ring length is less than

100 km when using either single-mode models or multi-mode models.

Installation

The media converter slide-in module can be hot-swapped, which means

the chassis doesn’t have to power off or be removed during installation.

Align the slide-in module with the chassis installation slot so that the

panel fastener screw is at the top of the module. Carefully slide the

slide-in module into the slot while aligning the module’s circuit board with

the installation guide. Ensure the slide-in module is firmly seated inside

the chassis. Push in and rotate the attached panel fastener screw

clockwise to secure the module to the chassis.

ATTENTION

For Fiber Ring Users:

Before you plug the slide-in module into the chassis, make sure

the DIP switch settings are correct before inserting the slide-in

module into the chassis and connecting the serial and fiber

cables. If the Rx LEDs of the converter glow continuously, remove

the fiber cable and reconnect.

NOTE

“Ring Mode” can only be used for half-duplex applications.
