  • Ethernet To Fiber Optic Converters (Multi-Drop)

    CommFront Communications

    Our advanced, rugged, industrial-grade, Fast and Gigabit Ethernet to multi-drop fiber optic converters are designed to cover large areas. These converters support up to 255 fiber nodes, and each fiber node can extend the Fast and Gigabit Ethernet data up to 100 miles or 160 km. Depending on the site situation, these multi-drop fiber optic converters can be configured as a daisy-chain or a self-healing redundant ring fiber network. When configured as a ring fiber network, the built-in self-healing feature allows the Ethernet data to be transmitted clockwise or counterclockwise; therefore, failure of any individual converter will not affect other devices located on the same fiber ring, making the entire Ethernet network more robust and reliable. These Fast and Gigabit Ethernet to multi-drop fiber optic converters have been designed for harsh industrial environments and withstand a wide temperature of -40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C),  and they come with the options multi-mode and single-mode, and ST, SC, FC, and SFP connectors.

  • Ethernet To Fiber Optic Converters (Point To Point)

    CommFront Communications

    Our rugged, industrial-grade, point-to-point Fast and Gigabit Ethernet to fiber optic converters work in pairs to extend 10/100/1000M Ethernet signals over long distance. These Fast and Gigabit Ethernet to fiber optic converters have been designed for harsh industrial environments and withstand a wide temperature of -40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C), and they come with the options of multi-mode and single-mode, and ST, SC, FC, and SFP connectors.

  • Free Serial-TCP (More Than Just A Device Server)

    CommFront Communications

    In the past two decades, legacy serial communication protocols such as Modbus have merged rapidly with modern TCP/IP communication, yielding benefits including widely available infrastructures and greater distance, reliability, and speed. The Serial-TCP program (more than just a Device Server) bridges your existing Serial COM port and TCP/IP without the need for changing existing protocol. It works seamlessly and transparently, just like passive RS232 / RS485 / RS422 converters, repeaters, and hubs, while the difference is that one requires installation of cables and converters with limited distance; and the other simply makes use of the existing computers and networks with an unlimited transmission distance

  • Managed Ethernet Switches

    CommFront Communications

    CommFront offers a range of rugged, industrial-grade, managed and unmanaged Ethernet Switches. These Industrial Ethernet Switches have been designed for harsh industrial environments and withstand a wide temperature of -40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C),  and they come with the options of 10/100/1000M for both Fast and Gigabit Ethernet networks. In addition, our advanced, rugged, industrial-grade, Fast and Gigabit Ethernet Switches support both point-to-point and multi-drop (daisy-chain or self-healing redundant ring) fiber optic networks, which are designed to cover large areas. These industrial Ethernet Switches support up to 255 fiber nodes, and each fiber node can extend the Fast and Gigabit Ethernet data up to 100 miles or 160 km. When configured as a ring network, the built-in self-healing feature allows the Ethernet data to be transmitted clockwise or counterclockwise; therefore, failure of any individual converter will not affect other devices located on the same ring, making the entire Ethernet network more robust and reliable.

  • RS232 / RS485 / RS422 / Serial To Multi-Drop Fiber Optic Converters

    CommFront Communications

    Our advanced, rugged, industrial-grade, RS232 / RS485 / RS422 serial to multi-drop fiber optic converters are designed to cover large areas. These converters support up to 255 fiber nodes, and each fiber node can extend the RS232 / RS422 / RS485's distance to 3 miles (5km) for multi-mode converters and cables, or 25 miles (40km) for single-mode converters and cables. Depending on the site situation, these multi-drop fiber optic converters can be configured as a daisy-chain or a self-healing redundant ring fiber network. When configured as a ring fiber network, the built-in self-healing feature allows the data to be transmitted clockwise or counterclockwise; therefore, failure of any individual converter will not affect other devices located on the same fiber ring, making the entire data network more robust and reliable. These multi-drop fiber optic converters have been designed for harsh industrial environments and withstand a wide temperature of -40°F to 185°F (-40°C to 85°C), and they come with the options of multi-mode and single-mode, and ST, SC, and FC connectors.

  • 1000BASE SFP Transceivers

    CommFront Communications

    CommFront offers a range of high-quality, high-performance SFP transceivers ranging from MM 850nm / 0.3 miles (550m) to SM 1550nm / 100 miles (160km). SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) is a compact, hot-pluggable network interface module used for data communication and tele-communication applications. SFP equips with one or two fiber optic connectors (e.g. LC connectors) for connecting a fiber optic cable or sometimes an RJ45 connector for connecting a copper cable. Because of its compact size and flexibility, many Ethernet Switches come with SFP ports so individual ports can be equipped with any suitable type of transceiver as required.

  • Advanced Serial Protocol Analyzer

    CommFront Communications

    Most data networks are complicated, not just the hardware and network issues, but also the high-level protocols that devices use to communicate; and to make things even more complicated, many manufacturers have incorporated proprietary protocols for their devices. Integrating different devices and protocols within a data network is always the most challenging task for system integrators, firmware / software developers, and site engineers. From the simplest loopback test to complicated checksum calculation and sophisticated firmware and GUI software development, the 232Analyzer is designed to tackle all these challenges.
