- **ISA AT Bus Extension:** Enables the physical and logical extension of an ISA AT bus between two separate systems or chassis. - **Opto-Fiber Isolation:** Utilizes optical fiber communication to achieve complete galvanic isolation between the two bus segments, protecting sensitive electronics from voltage surges, ground potential differences, and electromagnetic interference (EMI). - **Dual-Card System:** Comprises two half-length ISA cards—one transmitter and one receiver—forming a complete link for bus extension. - **5 VDC Operation:** Each card operates from a standard 5 VDC supply, drawing approximately 300 mA, compatible with standard ISA slot power rails. - **High Signal Integrity:** Optical transmission ensures minimal signal degradation over distance, maintaining timing accuracy and data integrity across extended bus lengths. - **Industrial Reliability:** Designed for continuous operation in industrial control systems, test benches, and embedded computing environments. - **Plug-and-Play ISA Compatibility:** Fully compatible with standard ISA AT bus architecture, requiring no modification to existing bus protocols or timing. - **Noise Immunity:** Optical isolation eliminates common-mode noise and cross-talk, improving system stability in electrically noisy environments. - **Compact Form Factor:** Half-length ISA cards allow installation in space-constrained enclosures or compact industrial PCs.
