While conventional electrical signal transmission soon comes up against limitations, the low damping properties and high transmission capacity of optical data transmission technology make it ideal for the transmission of signal with high bandwidths over long distances. FiberINTERFACES from Hirschmann ensure trouble free and fast data transmission for nearly all conventional industry standard interfaces: V.24/RS232, V.11/ RS422, RS485, audio, video, mouse-keyboard systems, TTL and TTY.
