USB to RS485 converter, opto-isolated
|
Use this opto-isolated unit to convert USB to RS485 industrial busses.
Use RS485-USB-M12M5M8M17 When connected to a PC USB port the module is automatically detected and is installed as a native COM port which is compatible with any existing serial communication application. Multiple modules can be installed when using USB hubs thus allowing a hassle-free configuration of a multi serial system.
It's opto-isolated and can be connected to any of the JVL motors running RS485 with 5-pin, 8-pin or 17-pin connector.
Maximum number of devices in the RS485 network is 32. Maximum RS485 cable length is up to 1200m.

Introduction:
This USB-to-serial converter enables reliable communication between a PC and industrial equipment using RS485 interfaces, such as servo drives, PLCs, and control systems.
The converter features 500 VDC galvanic isolation (basic insulation), effectively protecting connected equipment against ground loops, voltage differences, and electrical interference. This ensures stable and secure data transmission, even in demanding industrial environments.
Powered directly from the USB interface and based on a proven FTDI chipset, the converter offers robust driver support, high compatibility across operating systems, and stable communication performance. With support for baud rates up to 1 Mbps, and a wide operating temperature range (-20°C to +85°C), it is well suited for both commissioning and continuous use in industrial applications.
Applications:
- Typical applications include:
- Commissioning and configuration of servo drives and motor controllers
- Communication with PLCs, HMIs, and automation systems
- Service tools, diagnostics, and field maintenance
- General USB-to-serial interfacing in industrial environments
Key Benefits:
- 500 VDC galvanic isolation enhances system reliability and protects equipment
- High ESD protection (±15 kV) for use in electrically harsh environments
- Stable communication up to 1 Mbps
- Low power consumption (<50 mA) via USB supply
- Wide operating temperature range (-20°C to +85°C)
- Proven FTDI chipset ensuring reliable drivers and cross-platform compatibility
- Flexible integration supporting RS485 applications.
