Overview
- The Alloy SCR460SC-3 is a professional-grade serial to fibre media converter engineered for organisations requiring robust long-distance serial communications. It bridges RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 copper serial interfaces to single-mode fibre, extending connectivity up to 20 kilometres whilst maintaining signal integrity.
The converter's triple-mode circuit support and automatic baud rate detection up to 460.8kbps eliminate manual configuration and simplify deployment across mixed serial environments. Its compact, all-metal construction and high EMI/EMS immunity make it ideal for industrial and data centre applications where electromagnetic noise poses a challenge to standard copper cabling.
Flexible installation options allow it to function as a standalone unit or integrate seamlessly into Alloy's optional DCR12 Series rack-mount chassis, providing scalability for multi-converter deployments. The hot-swap design enables maintenance and upgrades without system downtime.
