The evaluation board provides screw terminal and RJ45 connections, and demonstrates best layout practices. Termination, pull-up, and pull-down resistors can be changed to accommodate various fanouts and termination methods.
The RS-485 board joins NVE’s popular line of board-level products, including IL600-Series Isolator Evaluation Boards, IL700-Series Isolator Evaluation Boards, and a variety of Sensor Evaluation Kits.

Tips for Isolating RS-485
Isolating RS-485 reduces noise, eliminates ground loops, and improves safety. RS-485 networks aren't difficult if you keep a few tips in mind:
• Keep stubs short
• Use twisted-pair cable
• Shielding for long or fast busses
• Ground one end of the shield
• Terminate bus ends
• Bias for fail-safe
• Use isolators, of course!
