Description:
The Waveshare Industrial-grade Isolated 8-ch RS485 Hub (RS485-HUB-8P) is a robust, cost-effective solution designed to enhance the reliability and scale of your RS485 network. Built for demanding industrial environments, this hub allows you to significantly expand your network's reach and device capacity while providing essential protection and signal integrity.

Specifications:
| Interface standard | Compliant with the RS485 standard |
|---|---|
| Physical interface | RS485 screw terminals |
| Baud rate | 300~460800 bps (self-adaptive) |
| supported nodes | Each RS485 port supports up to 32 nodes. |
| Communication distance | 1200 m (9600 bps), the higher rate the shorter distance. |
| Operating mode | RS485 two-wire (A, B), half-duplex transparent transmission |
| Power supply | DC 9~24V |
| Operating temperature | -45 ~ +85℃ |
| Environment humidity | <95%RH |
| Transmission medium | Normal parallel cables/twisted-pair cables |
Features:
- Isolated 8-Ch RS485 Hub: Extends 8-ch RS485 slave ports via 1-ch RS485 master port, with isolation and relay
- Cost-effective
- Supports 35 mm, Standard Guide Rail, With Rail-Mount Buckle, Easy to Install.
- Good quality product
- Transmission medium normal parallel cables/twisted-pair cables
- Supports RS485 Network Relay, Extension, and Isolation Functions
- The Isolated RS485 Master Port can be connected to the RS485 Host Device, and the Extended 8-Ch Isolated RS485 Port can be connected to various RS485 Slave Devices, such as RS485 Sensors, etc.
- The built-in photoelectric isolation protection circuit can effectively isolate RS485 master and slave devices to avoid the damage of ground potential difference between devices; it is anti-electrostatic, lightningproof & anti-surge, which is suitable for the industrial environment with high reliability and safety requirements.
- Supports 300~460800 bps Wide Baud Rate Communication Range (Self-Adaptive)
- Generally, the RS485 requires a hand-in-hand connection; if a star connection (master station as the center) is required, this RS485 hub can effectively isolate the connection interference between multiple RS485.
