March 18, 2014 - ProSoft Technology releases Ethernet to Belden Blue Hose Industrial Media Converter. The Media Converter helps companies upgrade their Allen-Bradley Remote I/O systems with minimal downtime. Once the Industrial Media Converters are installed, companies will be able to run Remote I/O and EtherNet/IP data simultaneously on existing Blue Hose cable. This allows upgrading of the individual nodes in phases. The Ethernet to Belden 9463 Blue Hose Industrial Media Converter’s units are Plug & Play, with no configuration needed.
The converters offer 57.6K and 115.2K baud rates and a maximum distance of 1,300 feet with simultaneous Ethernet and Remote I/O data (1,750 feet for Ethernet data alone). Repeaters are available for networks with distances up to 10,000 feet.
