RS232C Serial Line Driver - IC-150

This non-powered line driver facilitates efficient transmission and reception of serial data without requiring an external power source.  The unit drives your data at speeds of up to 19,200bps over a distance of up to 0.5 miles (or 6.3miles at 110bps) using 24 gauge wire.

This compact unit plugs directly into the back of your asynchronous terminal and requires no separate power source.  It provides 1,500V AC lightning surge protection and excellent noise rejection through the use of differential circuitry. You can select DCE or DTE.  The line driver provides asynchronous transmission and operates full-duplex over four wires.  At slower speeds the distance increases.
