Hardware Connectivity

Advantech's IMC-150LPC-M and IMC-150LPC-R are designed to be used as a pair. IMC-150LPC-M is designed for use at a central site while IMC 150LPC-R is used at a remote site. Both devices are capable of extending data and power transmission by >15.4W at 300 m (985 ft) using extant coaxial cables. Indeed, this solution converts analogue cables into Ethernet connection cables while saving on installation/digitalization costs. IMC-150LPC-M and IMC-150LPC-R further support PD power-off via a management switch to enable users to control the unit remotely. This series is compliant with EN50121-4 standards for trackside installation and is capable of withstanding electromagnetic interference for rail networks.

Our SCP series RS-232 to RS-422/485 serial converters are compact and tough. Each model is designed and tested to meet heavy industrial EMC standards. The RS-232 signal is connected through a female DB9 connector. The RS-422/485 (2-Wire and 4- Wire) signal is connected through a removable terminal block, making wiring easy. Power is connected through a two position removable terminal block. Our bit-wise enabled circuitry automatically detects the character time-out eliminating the need to set DIP Switches for the baud rate.
