STAR-10 Star Coupler

Star coupler for connecting distributed equipment to a central unit through optical communication.

The STAR-10 star coupler enables star topology connection of distributed equipment to a central unit through optical communication. It can route data from optical inputs to an RS485/RS232C line or between optical channels, with cascading of up to 32 couplers.

  • 4 or 5 optical inputs

    Supports four optical channels towards CH0 or five inputs towards a serial line.

  • Cascading up to 32 couplers

    Multiple couplers can be connected to one RS485 line for more inputs.

  • Up to 1.5 Mbaud

    Transmission speed is selected by DIP switch S1 for RS485 communication.

  • LED indication per channel

    Tx and Rx LED indication shows optical line operation.
