Information About 3-FIBMB2
The 3-FIBMB2 is a plug-in module for 3-CPU processors, designed to extend EST3 networking capabilities through fiber optic connectivity. It supports one to four single-mode or multi-mode transceivers, each enabling transmission and reception of digitized audio and network data between nodes. With compatibility for duplex SC and ST connectors, the module offers flexible installation options depending on the transceiver type. The 3-FIBMB2 can also support copper connections, allowing hybrid network configurations across large-scale life safety systems. Its built-in constant output test signal simplifies installation and troubleshooting of multi-mode fiber circuits, while redundant power options ensure communication continuity even during servicing.
Key Features:
- Fiber Optic Interface: Supports single-mode and multi-mode fiber network connectivity.
- Hybrid Networking: Allows copper-to-fiber and fiber-to-fiber communication format transitions.
- Multi-Transceiver Support: Accommodates up to four fiber optic transceivers.
- Class A/B/X Circuits: All circuits configurable as supervised Class B, Class A, or Class X.
- High-Speed Data Transfer: Supports network data at 19.2K/38.4Kbps and digitized audio at 327Kbps.
- Extended Network Range: Up to 5,000 ft (1,524 m) with copper, longer with fiber optic media.
- Test Signal Feature: Built-in constant test signal simplifies installation and verification of multi-mode fiber.
- Fail-Safe Operation: Secondary 24 VDC power input maintains communications during servicing.
- Wide Compatibility: Works with EST3 CPUs (3-CPU1 and later).
- Environmental Tolerance: Operates from 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C) and 0–93% humidity.
The 3-FIBMB2 delivers the performance and adaptability required for reliable EST3 fiber optic network communications.
