B+B SmartWorx High Speed RS-232/422/485 Fiber Modem - 2 x ST Ports - Multi-mode - 4 km - Rail-mountable, Panel-mountable
SERIAL TO FIBER OPTIC CONVERTERS
Standards can be mixed and matched so RS-232 devices can be connected to RS-422/485 devices, replacing a converter and isolator. When working with RS-485 signals, B&B Electronics' Automatic Send Data control eliminates the need for driver software. Serial connections are on terminal blocks; multimode fiber side has two ST connectors. Requires external power supply not included.

B&B HEAVY INDUSTRIAL 232/422/485 TO MM FIBER ST CNVTR - 1 x ST Ports - Multi-mode - 2 km - Panel-mountable
Extend Communications Up to 9 Miles!
With a pair of these serial to fiber converters, any two pieces of asynchronous serial equipment can communicate at half or full duplex over two fibers at rates up to 460 kbps for RS-422/485 or 115.2 kbps for RS-232. Fiber lines are inherently resistant to EMI/RFI and transient surges, so they are ideal for data communications near heavy electrical equipment and other electrical or radio interference.

B+B SmartWorx Serial to Single-mode Fiber Optic Converters - DuplexLC Port - 1 x ST Ports - Single-mode - 0.1 mil Fiber - 15 km - DC - Rail-mountable
Advantech B+B SmartWorx' ILinx™ fiber converters are designed with functionality required for heavier industrial environments. Model FOSTCDRi-Sx industrial-grade isolated converter changes RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 to singlemode fiber optics.
Learn More
FOSTCDRi-Sx extends serial data ranges up to 15 km (9 mi) and provides the most versatile connection possible between asynchronous full or half-duplex serial equipment. In addition to direct point-to-point connectivity, it is capable operating in a multi-drop mode. This allows one serial device to communicate with up to 31 others around a fiber optic ring. Since it supports mixed serial standards, it can replace other converters and isolators and add the EMI/RFI immunity inherent to fiber optic communications. Fiber optic connectors are SC or ST.
Automatic Send Data Control circuit controls the RS-422/485 driver chip, eliminating the requirement for special software. Easy to install and configure, it has a 12-position DIP switch to set up the RS-422/485 parameters and removable terminal blocks to connect serial signals and power. In RS-232 mode, it supports Transmit Data and Receive Data. Handshaking signals are not passed through.$440.56 -
Advantech ICR-3211B 2 SIM Cellular Modem/Wireless Router - 4G - LTE 700, LTE 800, LTE 850, LTE 900, LTE 1700, LTE 1800, LTE 1900, LTE 2100, GSM 900, GSM 1800 - LTE, GPRS - 2 x Network Port - Fast Ethernet - VPN Supported - Wall Mountable, DIN Rail Mountab
ICR-3211B is an industrial cellular gateway intended for the North American market (NAM). The ICR-3211B router is designed for wireless communication in the mobile networks that make use of traditional cellular technologies. The primary purpose of this router is its use in the Category M1 (Cat M1) services on the cellular LTE network.
Learn More
LTE Cat M1 is a new cellular technology specifically designed for the needs of applications targeting the Internet of Things (IoT) or machine-to-machine (M2M) communications. LTE Cat M1 is a low-power wide-area (LPWA) air interface that lets you connect IoT and M2M devices with medium data rate requirements (375 kbps upload and download speeds in half duplex mode).
In addition to its two independent or switched Ethernet ports, serial ports RS232 and RS485, ICR-3211B has built-in digital I/O connectivity, backup real-time clock and sleep mode support. The device has two SIM readers protected by metallic cover for carrier failover redundancy. As an addition the router is ready to use internal eSIM. The Last-gasp supercapacitor ensures safe sending out of information about power failure or send last processed data.
The router supports VPN tunnel creation using various protocols to ensure safe communications. The router provides diagnostic functions which include automatic monitoring of the wireless and wired connections, automatic restart in case of connection losses, and a hardware watchdog that monitors the router status.
The ICR-3211B places intelligence at the network edge with an extremely powerful Cortex A8 CPU at 1GHz, 512 MB RAM and 4 GB EMMC FLASH memory in pSLC mode for a long-lifetime and critical industrial applications. 1.3 GB of memory space is allocated for customer SW applications and data. With open Linux platform and wide posibilities of programming customer SW applications in Python, C/C++ or browser-based flow editor Node-RED the ICR-3211B offers a real open development platform for Industrial IoT applications. The Advantech existing app library (User modules) with apps already developed to enhance specific router functionality including industrial protocol conversions and support of IoT platforms such as MS Azure, Cumulocity, ThingWorx and others are supported on the router.
ICR-3211B is easy to install using WebAccess/DMP, a full featured configuration and monitoring tool for mass deployment. The router also supports additional traffic and health monitoring software R-SeeNet.$485.28
