The Model 2145 Bit-Driver used in a PROFIBUS-DP application is a two
optic port repeater with single TIA/EIA-485-A electrical port. The 2145 operates at rate 9600 baud to 12 Mbaud
in linear bus topology. The 2145 can be used as an optical repeater between the fiber optic segments, an optical
to electrical converter between an fiber optic segment and electrical station(s), or T-connector/repeater between
two fiber optic segments and electrical station(s). The 2145 is transparent and does not evaluate the PROFIBUS
data exchange.
Using fiber optics over the physical layer, the 2145 provides longer segment distances, electromagnetic noise
immunity and ground potential difference independence in the linear bus topology. The 2145 optics can be optionally
equipped with different characteristics.
The 2145 retimes the received optical signal and can link up to 32 fiber optic segments in series. The electrical
port supports up to 31 stations.
The 2145 Termination switch can select an internal cable type-A termination. External terminations can derive power
from the sub-D connector between pins 6 and 5.
The 2145 unit attaches to EN50022 (35mm DIN) mounting rail. Power is applied through screw terminals and data
rate selection made through internal DIP switches.
UL Listed. Meets FCC requirements of Class A, Part 15 Computing Devices Standard.
