Information About 3X-FIB8
The 3X-FIB8 is an EST3X network communication module specifically designed for compatible 3X-SFS fire alarm control systems. The assembly consists of an adapter card and electronics card that interface with the SFS1-CPU main board and accept separately ordered fiber-optic transceivers for network data transmission. It supports MMXVR multimode and SMXLO2/SMXHI2 single-mode transceivers, allowing the fiber configuration to be selected according to network distance and cable requirements. Dedicated terminals accept an external 24 VDC backup source so network data transmission can remain active when the associated panel is powered down for service.
Key Features:
- Eight-Node Networking: Supports a fiber-optic network containing up to eight compatible EST3X control panels.
- Fiber-Optic Communication: Provides electrically isolated network communication suitable for distributed fire alarm installations.
- Multiple Network Classes: Supports Class B, Class A, and supported Class X network arrangements.
- EST3X Compatibility: Designed specifically for compatible Edwards 3X-SFS / EST3X fire alarm control systems.
- Multimode Fiber Support: Compatible with MMXVR standard-output multimode fiber-optic transceivers.
- Single-Mode Fiber Support: Accepts SMXLO2 standard-output and SMXHI2 high-output single-mode transceivers.
- Modular Construction: Consists of an adapter card and dedicated fiber network electronics card.
- Backup Power Connection: Provides terminals for an external 24 VDC backup source to maintain network communications during panel shutdown.
- Network Data and Audio Support: Provides fiber-optic paths for compatible EST3X network data and audio communications.
- Selectable Data Rates: Supports network communication rates of 19.2 or 38.4 kbps.
- Service Indicators: Compatible transceivers incorporate transmit and receive activity LEDs for network diagnostics.
- Flexible Fiber Selection: Supports different fiber types and optical budgets through the choice of separately installed transceiver modules.
The 3X-FIB8 delivers the reliability and precision required for fiber-optic networking of distributed EST3X fire alarm and life-safety control panels.
