Honeywell TC-RPFM01 Experion ControlNet Fiber Optic Repeater Module
The Honeywell TC-RPFM01 is a ControlNet fiber optic repeater module engineered for Honeywell Experion systems, including Experion PKS and Experion LS control architectures. Installed in a repeater rack assembly alongside a ControlNet repeater adapter, it converts electrical coaxial ControlNet signals into optical signals to extend network segments beyond copper cable distance limits while preventing electromagnetic interference.
Optical Transmission Capabilities and Distance
The module operates at the standard ControlNet communication rate of 5 Mbps. Utilizing optical fiber media, it supports network signal extension up to 3 km (9,842 ft) with an optical power budget of 13.3 dB at a 1300 nm optical wavelength, maintaining signal integrity and galvanic isolation between connected control zones.
Hardware Interface and Operating Specifications
The unit interfaces with the local repeater adapter via a vendor-specific 30-pin TTL bus connector, receiving internal operating power directly through the adapter module. Designed for industrial enclosures, the module operates across a temperature range of -20 deg C to +70 deg C and features shock resistance rated at 15 g peak (11 ms duration) alongside vibration resistance per IEC 68-2-6 standards.
