Professional Version Media Converters

The USB-Pro versions of the digital media converters have been designed to enable a laptop to act as a stand-alone data logger and display system.

Status LED indicators show when data acquisition operations are underway. An isolated and fuse protected power supply is used to drive any attached sensor. Power up to a maximum current level of 100 mA is obtained directly from the PC USB port.
