Most serial-to-fiber converters provide a single serial port and fiber port for physical layer media conversion. As industrial networking applications increase in complexity, it is becoming increasingly important to support additional capabilities and features, such as easy wiring, system diagnostics, and dual hosts/slaves. Read this white paper to learn how a media converter with 3-way communication can address these concerns.

These white papers explain the benefits of real-time video monitoring and IP video technology, as well as factors to consider when deploying a rugged IP video surveillance system for industrial automation applications, including visual management in SCADA, industrial video networking for ITS, and unmanned facility surveillance.
