UTEK (UT-885)-USB 2.0 to RS485 / RS-422 Converter

Description:

UT-885 is a universal USB to RS-485/422 converter, there is no need of external power supply. It complies with USB, RS422, and RS-485 standards; it converts USB signal to a balanced differential RS-422 or RS-485 signal. The built-in fast instant voltage restraint is designed to protect RS-422/RS-485 interface; it adopts advanced TVS (TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SUPPRESSOR) instant voltage restraint; normally, TVS tube is in high impedance state; when both sides of TVS tube suffer from high power impact in a sudden, the voltage restraint will fast lower the impedance from both sides, and absorb in big current; with this, the voltage on both sides are fixed at presupposed value, protects the component of circuit from damage. This voltage restraint provides 600W each wire with lightning, ESD protection, and surge voltage, instant over-voltage protection on circuit which causing by all reasons; the tiny inter-electrode capacitance ensures high speed transmission for RS-422/485 ports. RS-485/422 adopts terminal block as connector. This converter is with built-in zero delay auto receiving and transmitting conversion and unique I/O circuit auto control data flow direction without any handshake signal (RTU, DTR); there is no need jumper wire setting for full duplex (RS-422) and half duplex (RS-485) mode, plug & play. It is compatible with current communication software and hardware.

UT-885 converter provides connection for point to point, point to multi-point communication. For point to multi-point mode, each converter is allowed to connect 32 sets RS-422 or RS-485 device with baud rate 300-921.6 Kbps. The power and data flow indicators indicate the working status.
