General Description

The 72-CNV-XX family of converters offer a flexible and reliable solution to the challenge of interfacing devices conforming to different serial communication standards. Grayhill converter products are designed for industrial environments. All communication lines have transient protection which other commercially available converters lack. The converters allow an RS-232 device (ie. PCs, PLCs, Embedded Controllers) to communicate reliably over long distances to multiple devices utilizing the RS- 422/485 standard. Reliability is an inherent benefit of the differential mode communication of RS- 422/485.
