A UART uses separate transmit (TX) and receive (RX) signal lines, which allows \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Duplex_(telecommunications)\"\u003efull-duplex\u003c\/a\u003e communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRS485 is a variation of serial communication intended for communication over long cable lengths. RS485 uses a differential signal on a twisted pair of wires, which protects the signal integrity over hundreds of meters of cable length. The same wires are used for both transmitting and receiving, so you can only do one at a time. This is called half-duplex. Many subsea sensors and tools including sonars, water chemistry sensors, and manipulators use RS485 communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BLUART has JST-GH connector ports and through-hole options for either serial UART or RS485 connections. Only one connection type may be used at a time. The indicator lights signal for adequate power and when receiving and\/or transmitting data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BLUART is open-source and the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/bluerobotics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/BLUART-R1-Schematic.pdf\"\u003eschematic\u003c\/a\u003e is freely available.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blue Robotics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58747049443702,"sku":"BR-100871","price":56.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1017\/5745\/2662\/files\/IMG_1067.jpg?v=1789582946","url":"https:\/\/www.substore.fi\/products\/bluart-r1-rp","provider":"Sub Marine Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
