This manual introduces the features and usage of YF-504 RS485 Splitter. This product can amplify RS485 signals, improve line output power, and extend communication distance by 2000 meters per path.
About this manual
The YF-504 RS485 Signal Distributor amplifies a single RS485 input and provides four isolated RS485 outputs, allowing long‑distance data communication in noisy environments. Each output can drive up to 128 devices, giving a total capacity of 512 nodes, and the device supports a communication distance of up to 2000 m per channel.
The manual details the wiring connections, power requirements (9‑12 V DC), and proper termination using a 120 Ω resistor at the farthest device on each loop. It also highlights the anti‑static and lightning‑proof design of the ports and provides usage instructions to avoid reversing the AB connections. This manual is written in Chinese.
