Applications
Typical applications include linking
remote terminals or printers to host computers, tail circuits to
existing multiplexers and extending data communications links. Fiber
Optic Modems are also ideal for connecting data communications devices
in harsh manufacturing or outdoor environments where EMI or RFI
interference, ground loops and lightning are prevalent.

Description
Pocket Rocket modems are designed for local
and campus networks up to distances of approximately 5 km multimode and 30
km single mode. Distances can vary depending on the size and type of fiber
optic cable, number of connections and type of fiber optic connectivity
device(s) used in a given network.
Because of its versatility, the TC1100 is
ideal for connecting a variety of either synchronous (internal or external
clock) or asynchronous communications devices to a host computer.
Featuring switch-selectable internal clock rates, it is a medium speed,
low cost synchronous RS-232 fiber optic modem.
The TC1100 supports external synchronous
data transmission up to 128 Kbps and all popular internal clock rates,
including 2.4K, 4.8K, 9.6K, 19.2K, 38.4K, 64K and 128K. It supports
asynchronous data rates up to 64 Kbps. It is available for both single
mode (1300/1550nm) and multimode (850/1300nm) formats. Fiber optic
connectors are ST or FC. Electrical connectors are DB25 female.
An
extreme temperature version (-20°C
to 70°C), Model TC1100T, is also available.
