FCM2F4 P0917JA Foxboro Fiber Optic Fieldbus Extender Module
Description
TheFoxboro FCM2F4 (P0917JA)module is designed to extend Fieldbus communication overfiber optic cabling, providing superior immunity to electrical noise and environmental interference. It is ideal for industrial environments where copper wiring is unreliable due to EMI, RFI, or lightning exposure, and supports distances of up to4 kilometers, making it suitable for large-scale distributed control systems. Its rugged, compact design enables remote baseplates to communicate efficiently with central control processors, even in harsh conditions with high-voltage equipment or rotating machinery. The module is widely deployed inoil & gas, chemical processing, and power generation facilitieswhere reliable long-distance communication is critical.
