Addressable Node Expander (ANX) Connections

3.7 Addressable Node Expander (ANX) Connections
The ANX (Addressable Node Expander) is a network interface sub-assembly component of the
Gamewell-FCI, E3 Series
Each of the three ANX sub-assemblies provides Ethernet connectivity via a 10/100Mbps Ethernet
port using the Micro Internet Protocol (uIP™) firmware module (see Section 3.7.5). The Ethernet
port offers an enhanced interface between the E3 Series fire alarm control panel and the
FocalPoint
supervisory, and trouble conditions on the FocalPoint Graphic Workstation. The Ethernet port also
provides enhanced configuration data exchange between the E3 Series network and the PC.
Both the ANX Multi-Ring-Fiber-Optic and Twisted Pair sub-assemblies have the capacity to
expand the E3 Series network from 64 nodes to a maximum of 122 nodes. The ANX-MR-UTP
allows twisted-pair copper interconnections only. The ANX-MR-FO adds Fiber Optic connectivity.
CAUTION: SURGE SUPPRESSOR REQUIREMENT
!
THE FOCALPOINT GATEWAY AND ANX PRODUCTS REQUIRE THE USE OF AN EXTERNAL
SURGE PROTECTOR ON THE ETHERNET INTERFACE TO MEET UL
PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS. THEREFORE, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO USE SURGE
SUPPRESSOR PART NUMBER: PNET-1. THIS DEVICE MUST BE USED IN ANY ANX
INSTALLATION WHERE ITS ETHERNET PORT IS PERMANENTLY CONNECTED TO A
NETWORK.
