FO Repeater
Converter from ISO/IS 11898 to fiber optic cable
The FO Repeater is used for the conversion of the CAN-signal from copper wire (ISO/IS 11898-2) to fiber optic cables. This allows complete isolation and protection against EM-influences to be achieved. One special feature of the Repeater is that it can separate a defective segment from the rest of the network so that the remaining network can continue working. After elimination of the defect, the segment is switched into the network again.
Technical Data
| Display | Sending (2 green LEDs), defective segment (2 red LEDs) |
| CAN bus interface | ISO/IS 11898-2, Terminals (CAN-High, CAN-Low, CAN-GND). CAN termination resistors are integrated (can be disabled). |
| FOC connection | 2 x F-SMA or ST terminals for duplex line (Glass 50/125 µm duplex) |
| Baudrate | Up to 888 kbps |
| Delay | ~300 ns (translates into ~60 m (~90ft.) bus length) between the wire connection of a FO Repeater through the fiber optic cable to the wire connection of a second FO Repeater (not including the signal delay time of the fiber optics between the two repeaters, which is ~5ns/m) |
| Power supply | 9-35 V DC, 3 W typ., through terminals |
| Temperature range | 0 ºC ... +60 ºC |
| Housing, size | Plastic enclosure, 110 x 75 x 22 mm (without FO connector) |
