The
ADA-4044H HUB is used for creation star-branches from the main bus and also
separation and
extending of RS485/RS422 bus
for next segment 1200m without interfering with the format of transmitted data. The HUB has one input RS485 port (RS485-IN) for
connection of main bus and 4 separated output ports for connection of 2-wire bus or 2 ports for connection of 4-wire-bus of
RS485/422. It is possible to connect to the each output ports up to 64 devices on 4-wire RS485 bus or 128 devices on 2-wire RS485
bus or 2 addressable devices with RS422 interface. The setting of port type is by "RS-485 PORTS" switch on the front panel.
ADA-4044H can be used also for communication with devices in star topology located in different places where RS485 chain topology
is impassible.
The baud rate is up to 230,4 kbps via 4 or 2 pairs or twisted pair connected to screw terminal block with devices as: PLC, measuring
devices, electronic scale and cash registers.
Surge protection on
each RS485/RS422 line was made on the basis of surge diodes and
fuses.
