RS-232 or RS-485 Isolator/Repeater

These DIN Rail Repeaters with Opto-Isolation protect equipment from ground loops and spikes while optically isolating it from the rest of a network and expanding a system beyond node or distance limits.

Two repeaters are available: RS-422/RS-485 (ICD102A) and RS-232 (ICD103A). You can use them together with the RS232/422/485-converter (ICD100) to link your industrial devices together and/or add distance between the devices. They provide superior performance in an industrial environment, such as a manufacturing plant.

ICD103 isolates the TD, RD, RTS, and CTS channels, supports 115.2-kbps speeds on all four channels, and extends the RS-232 signal beyond 15.2 m.
Protect equipment from ground loops and spikes while optically isolating it from the rest of a network and expanding a system beyond node or distance limits.

The RS-422/RS-485 model ICD102A isolates RS-422/485 equipment. It features selectable rates between 2400 bps and 115.2 kbps, and enables a system to exceed 32-node limitations.
