RS232 to RS422/485 Converter w/Surge Protection, Port-powered

Antaira Technologies STS-1915S is a RS232 to RS422/485 serial converter. Designed to work as either a client or server, the STS-1915S is able to provide RS422/485 serial communication through the standard RS-232 port.

The STS-1915S is equipped with a standard DB9 female connector and serial terminal block for flexible wiring. The serial converter can be either powered by the RS232 line voltage or a USB to barrel 5VDC input jack.

The STS-1915S can convert between unbalanced RS232 full-duplex signals to balanced RS422/485 full or half duplex signals. The RS485 serial is able to be configured in either a two or four wire configuration. The serial converter is compatible with both new and legacy RS422 and RS485 devices. The STS-1915S is easy to install and does not require the user to power cycle the computer, preventing downtime.
