TC3020R/S User's Manual Rev. 1.7 −1− TC3020R/S 5Mbps Fiber Optic Mode Converter/Repeater User's Manual 1. Description The TC3020R/S gives users the ability to convert Multimode fiber optic signals to Single Mode format for data transmission (and vice-versa). These conversions can benefit users by extending transmission distances and/or enabling dissimilar fiber optic devices to be used with different fiber types. The optic receiver detects the incoming optical signal and regenerates it for transmission through the second optic transmitter. The TC3020R/S is available in multiple configurations depending on your communication requirements. When both sides have the same wavelength, the unit works like an optical signal repeater. 2. Data Rate 5Mbps (Burst or Continuous Data) 3.

These numbers may vary. 4. Power Requirements The TC3020R/S consumes very low power. The connector is a terminal block with polarity indicated on the rear panel of the unit. The input voltage is 12VDC and current is typically @200mA. Should an external power adapter need to be replaced, use one that matches these specifications. You may order it from TC Communications. 5.
