USB⇔RS-422/485 Converter ULI-342TC

2-port + 3kV isolation! DIN rail compatible industrial USB ⇔ RS-422/485 converter

The ULI-342TC is an industrial USB-to-serial converter that adds two RS-422/485 ports to a USB port. It supports USB 2.0 (up to 480Mbps) and serial communication at speeds of up to 921.6kbps. With 3kV optical isolation, it provides electrical separation between the upstream PC and downstream devices, as well as between each port, protecting equipment from voltage surges and ground loops. Its robust design is suitable for DIN rail mounting, making it ideal for control panels and factory networks. It also supports industrial protocols such as Modbus RTU, providing reliable communication in harsh environments.
