Wiesemann & Theis offers a new type-84iso50 interface (20 mA
passive to RS-232C bidirectional) that gives you up to 50 kV
isolation for protection against voltage fluctuations. The
protection comes from a 10-cm optical fiber that is integrated
into the interface. The interface uses uPower Technology to draw
its power from signal voltage levels, and it needs no adapter --
it is housed in a small swelling in the 4-meter-long data cable
that the company supplies.
 
Price: 298 deutsche marks.
