PAS 9310/FO : Fiber Optic Bus Extender

Links to printable product info:

• Product Manual

The PAS9310/FO Fiber Optic Bus Extender converts the parallel RTP bus into a high speed serial bus that is transmitted over fiber optic cable. The link consists of two printed circuit cards, and the duplex fiber optic cable that connects them. One card plugs into an interface option chassis located near the host computer and the RTP Bus Converter, and the second card plugs into the first RTP controller.

Both cards contain bus transceivers that interface to the RTP parallel data bus, a high speed encoder / transmitter, a high speed decoder / receiver, and a fiber optic transceiver module. All of these components are controlled by logic contained in an Electrically Programmable Logic Device, (EPLD). The EPLDs are different on the host and remote ends of the link. Other than the EPLDs, all of the other components, including the PCB are the same on both boards.

Key Features

• Converts the parallel RTP bus to a high speed serial fiber optic bus

• Operates transparently with existing IOBC and programs

• Requires IOBC that can stretch the pulse width of the RTP bus strobes

• 100 Megabit per second transfer rate

• 500 Meter bus length with appropriate pulse stretching 62.5/125 uM or 50/125 uM multimode fiber optic cable

• Uses standard SC connectors
