Problem

I need to connect two PC's via their serial ports across fiber. Is the 2505 mini optical bit-driver what I need?

Solution

  • The 2505 can be used as long as you do not need the RTS/CTS control signals. This unit will require you to purchase the 2121 power supply as this unit is externally powered.
  • If you wish to use a host powered unit, the 2507 unit performs the same functions as the 2505.
  • If control signals are needed, the 2506 Bit-Driver® and 2121 power supply should be used.
