Detailed Description

UT-216 Industrial RS-232 to RS-422/485 Converter

The UT-216 is a high-performance industrial interface converter designed to provide seamless communication between RS-232C standards and balanced differential RS-422 or RS-485 signals. Engineered for reliability in harsh environments, it bridges the gap between legacy serial ports and modern industrial networks with “Plug & Play” simplicity.

Advanced Circuit Protection

Safety is at the core of the UT-216. It features integrated TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) technology. Under normal conditions, the TVS maintains high impedance; however, when a sudden high-power surge or lightning strike occurs, the device instantaneously lowers its impedance to absorb the current.

Surge Suppression: Provides 600W of protection per wire.
Comprehensive Guard: Shields against lightning, surge voltages, and instantaneous overvoltage.
High-Speed Integrity: Tiny interelectrode capacitance ensures that protective measures do not sacrifice data transmission speeds.

Intelligent Data Control

The UT-216 eliminates the complexities of manual configuration.

Zero-Delay Auto-Switching: Features a built-in I/O circuit that automatically controls data flow direction.
Hardware-Free Setup: No handshake signals (RTS, DTR) or physical jumper settings are required to switch between full-duplex (RS-422) and half-duplex (RS-485) modes.
Universal Compatibility: Works out-of-the-box with all current communication software and hardware, mimicking a standard RS-232 experience.

Versatile Networking Capabilities

Whether you are setting up a simple link or a complex network, the UT-216 is built to scale:

Multiple Topologies: Supports Point-to-Point and Point-to-Multipoint configurations.
Expandable Network: In Point-to-Multipoint mode, a single converter can support up to 32 RS-422 or RS-485 devices.
High Performance: Supports baud rates ranging from 300bps to 115.2Kbps.
Visual Diagnostics: Integrated LED indicators for Power (PWR), Transmit (TXD), and Receive (RXD) allow for real-time monitoring and rapid troubleshooting.
