Information About 4-NET-AD
The 4-NET-AD module is part of the EST4 system’s IPv6 self-configuring network architecture, engineered to support large-scale fire and life safety installations. It provides two SFP slots for hot-swappable network controllers, supporting fiber (single or multi-mode), twisted pair, or CAT5 cabling. This allows system designers to select the optimal physical media for project requirements. Additionally, it includes one USB Type A host port and one USB Type B device port, offering direct connectivity to the 4-CPU for both system communication and optional printer interface. Mounting options include side or back of EST4 chassis, annunciator enclosures, and dedicated mounting plates, providing flexibility in installation.
Key Features:
- Dual SFP Ports: Accepts hot-swappable EST4 network controllers for copper, fiber, or CAT5 connections.
- Flexible Network Design: Supports star or mesh topologies beyond Class A or Class B limitations.
- USB Connectivity: Includes one USB 3.0 Type A host and one USB 3.0 Type B device port.
- CPU Link: Provides communication interface between SFP ports and the 4-CPU.
- Printer Support: USB device port may act as a printer interface.
- Hot-Swappable Modules: SFP network controllers can be added or replaced without power-down.
- Versatile Mounting: Installs in chassis, annunciator enclosures, or on a 4-MPLT plate.
- IPv6 Ready: Operates within EST4’s self-configuring IPv6 life safety network.
- High Reliability: UL, ULC, FM, CSFM listed for fire and life safety applications.
- Compact Form Factor: Adds networking without consuming multiple rack spaces.
The 4-NET-AD provides scalable and flexible network expansion for EST4 life safety systems, ensuring secure and redundant communication.
