RLH 8 Channel Contact ClosureDIN Fiber Link SystemThe RLH 8 Channel Contact Closure DIN Fiber Link system provides a transmission of up to eight independent contact closure signals over one optical fiber. The system comprises a transmitter module and a receiver module, each in a compact DIN mount housing.

The DIN mount is designed to be installed onto a standard T35 DIN rail. RLH Fiber Link products are temperature hardened, made in the U.S.A. and covered by our Unconditional Lifetime Warranty.

Key FeaturesEnvironmentHardened to operate in -40F to +158F (-40C to +70C)

Power24-56VDC local power source for each unitDC power is not polarity sensitive

ApplicationAvailable with ST or SC connectors for single or multi-mode fiber RX side includes alarm contact for status monitoringConvenient LED status indicatorsCritical, high voltage, remote or un-manned locations operating 24/7/365
