Kramer Electronics UK has launched an FC-2 bi-directional USB to RS-485 and RS-422 converter at the Production Show in Olympia.
The Kramer FC-2 is an adjustment-free, bi-directional USB to RS-485 or USB to RS-422 converter that incorporates the USB, RS-485, and RS-422 video and presentation industry interfaces. The machine can operate, using high quality cables, for a range of up to 1200 meters (3,937 feet). The FC-2 is housed in an ultra-compact Kramer Pico TOOLS ® enclosure (approx 2 ½” x 2 ½” x 1”) and uses the power provided by the USB port.
“The FC-2 is a unique device that can be used for several applications. For example, although most new laptops have a USB port, many no longer have an RS-232 port. This device allows additional connectivity via the USB port when RS-232 is not available,” said Mike Roberts Technical Manager Kramer Electronics UK.
