Description
The GPIB-140A is a high-performance GPIB Bus Extender designed to meet the needs of high-speed data transfer and extended cable length requirements. It is compatible with both IEEE 488.1 and IEEE 488.2 standards, ensuring wide-ranging compatibility with various GPIB devices and systems.
This extender supports a maximum cable length of 1 km when used with a pair of GPIB-140A extenders, making it an ideal solution for setups requiring long-distance communication without sacrificing data integrity or speed. The GPIB-140A utilizes a buffered transfer technique to achieve high data transfer rates, capable of exceeding 2.8 Mbytes/s when operating with the HS488 protocol. This ensures efficient and rapid data communication across extended distances.
One of the key features of the GPIB-140A is its software transparency, meaning it does not require any additional software to operate, simplifying installation and setup. Additionally, there’s no need for additional hardware, further reducing complexity and cost for users.
The GPIB-140A is available under several part numbers, including 777997-01, 777997-02, 777997-03, 777997-04, 777997-05, and 777997-06, accommodating a wide range of requirements and ensuring that users can find a model that fits their specific needs.
