Honeywell XSDRIN-03 Network Integration Serial Device Servers

The Honeywell XSDRIN-03 (also cataloged as XSDRIN03) is an industrial device server designed for serial-to-Ethernet protocol conversion and network integration within control architecture platforms. It interfaces legacy RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 field hardware directly to 10Base-T and 100Base-TX local area networks, delivering bidirectional data packetization without requiring modifications to edge devices.

Serial Connectivity and Protocol Integration

The device features integrated transceivers supporting configurable 2-wire or 4-wire RS-485 multi-drop networks alongside full-duplex RS-232 and RS-422 communication profiles. Its internal firmware processes serial data streams to ensure deterministic message delivery when tunneling fieldbus frames across Ethernet backbones.

Power Requirements and Environmental Tolerances

Operating on a flexible power input range of 9 VDC to 30 VDC or 9 VAC to 24 VAC, the module is housed in a compact standard DIN-rail form factor weighing 0.22 lbs (0.10 kg). It is built for harsh industrial environments, functioning reliably across an operating temperature range of -40 deg C to 70 deg C.

Technical Specifications

Field Installation Guidelines

1. Mount the device vertically onto a standard 35 mm DIN-rail inside an enclosure providing appropriate ingress protection.
2. Connect the earth ground wire to the designated chassis terminal to ensure shield termination and electrostatic discharge dissipation.
3. Terminate RS-485 bus runs with a 120 ohm resistor across the physical line ends to prevent signal reflections on long cable lengths.
4. Verify power supply input voltage remains within the specified 9-30 VDC or 9-24 VAC tolerance prior to energizing the module.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What power input voltage range is supported by the XSDRIN-03 terminal block?

A: The module accepts either 9-30 VDC or 9-24 VAC input power sources via its integrated screw terminal interface.

Q: Which physical interface modes can be selected for serial communications?

A: The onboard hardware transceivers support configurable RS-232, RS-422, and 2-wire or 4-wire RS-485 via terminal block or RJ45 connection points.
