Description
The GPIB-140A, part number 186135G-01, falls under the category of GPIB devices and is designed to function as a GPIB Bus Extender. This device is compatible with a range of part numbers, including 777997-01, 777997-02, 777997-03, 777997-04, 777997-05, and 777997-06, ensuring a wide range of application possibilities.
It adheres to the IEEE 488.1 and IEEE 488.2 standards, guaranteeing its compatibility with a broad spectrum of GPIB instruments and systems. One of the key features of the GPIB-140A is its ability to extend the GPIB bus communication over distances up to 1 km with the use of a pair of extenders. This feature is particularly useful in setups where devices are spread across large distances.
The extender supports fiber-optic cable types, which are known for their ability to transmit data over long distances without signal degradation. Furthermore, it employs a buffered transfer technique, ensuring efficient data handling and transfer speeds that are faster than 2.8 Mbytes in HS488 mode. This makes it an ideal solution for applications requiring high-speed data transfer.
Another significant advantage of the GPIB-140A is its software transparency. This feature means that the device can be integrated into existing systems without the need for any software modifications, making its deployment straightforward and requiring minimal effort without the necessity for additional hardware. This ease of integration, combined with its high compatibility and performance features, makes the GPIB-140A an essential tool for extending GPIB bus systems over long distances.
