The ICP DAS I-7514U is an isolated 4-channel RS-485 repeater/hub/splitter designed for industrial communication networks.
The ICP DAS I-7514U is an isolated 4-channel RS-485 repeater/hub/splitter designed for industrial communication networks. It enables reliable star wiring, signal extension, and node expansion in RS-485 systems.
Description
Type: RS-485 Active Hub / Repeater / Splitter
Purpose: Extends RS-485 communication distance and increases node capacity beyond the standard 256 devices.
Isolation: Provides 3000 VDC optical isolation between channels to protect against surges and noise.
Design: Supports true RS-485 star wiring, allowing one input channel to distribute data simultaneously to four independent output channels.
Use Case: Industrial automation, building management systems, and distributed control networks requiring reliable multi-drop RS-485 communication.
