Description
The GPIB-140A, listed under part numbers 777997-01, 777997-02, 777997-03, 777997-04, 777997-05, and 777997-06, falls within the GPIB category, offering exceptional compatibility with IEEE 488.1 and IEEE 488.2 standards. This model is engineered to extend the total cable length of a GPIB system significantly, ensuring that system integrity remains unaffected.
One of the notable features of the GPIB-140A is its ability to achieve a maximum distance of 1 km when used with a pair of GPIB-140A extenders. This capability is made possible through the use of fiber-optic cable, known for its high data transfer rates and resistance to electromagnetic interference.
In terms of data transfer, the GPIB-140A utilizes a buffered transfer technique, ensuring efficient and reliable communication between devices. The maximum speed attainable with the GPIB-140A exceeds 2.8 Mbytes/s when employing the HS488 protocol, highlighting the device’s capability to handle high-speed data transfers with ease.
Moreover, the GPIB-140A boasts software transparency, meaning it can be integrated into existing systems without the need for additional software modifications. This feature simplifies the process of extending the GPIB system’s total cable length, making it an ideal solution for applications requiring long-distance communication without compromising on data integrity or speed.
