Hospital Network - Brainlab Buzz 2.0 System And Technical User Manual

Hospital Network

4.3.3 Hospital Network
Network Requirements
The hospital network must comply with the following definition according IEEE 802.3:1000BASE-T
or 100BASE-TX.
The following requirements apply to LAN wiring:
• Category 5 or better for 10/100 Ethernet
• Category 5e or better for Gigabit Ethernet
NOTE: The customer must take ISO / IEC 11801 requirements into account.
Connecting the device to a hospital network is creating a ME system according to IEC
60601-1. Brainlab recommends that the hospital network components are compliant with
an adequate IEC standard (IEC 60601-1 Clause 7.9.2.9).
Digital OR Computer For Barco Integration
The Digital OR Computer For Barco Integration provides these options to connect to the
hospital network:
• 1/10 gigabit fiber Ethernet according to IEEE 802.3: 10GBASE-SR or IEEE 802.3:1000BASE-
SX.
• Fiber LAN wiring must be multi-mode fiber OM3 or better
Network Precautions
Connecting the Buzz to a hospital network that includes other equipment might result in
previously unidentified risks to patients, operators or third parties.
The hospital should identify, analyze, evaluate and control risks arising by connecting the Buzz to
a hospital network.
Subsequent changes to the hospital network may introduce new risks and require additional
analysis. Changes to the hospital network include:
• Changes to the hospital network configuration
• Connecting additional items to the hospital network
• Disconnecting items from the hospital network
• Updating or upgrading equipment connected to the hospital network
It is recommended to use an adequate separation device for the network (LAN) interface with a
rating of minimum 1 MOOP and a dielectric strength of minimum 1.5 kV.
Only operate the equipment in secured networking environments. Make sure the network is
protected against unauthorized access (e.g., user authentication, firewall, etc.) and against
malicious software. If connected to an insecure network, the equipment functionality
cannot be guaranteed (e.g., due to possible malicious/unsecure software infections).
When integrating the Buzz into a wireless network, select an adequate encryption
(e.g.WPA2) to protect patient data from unauthorized access.
Network Information Flow
The intended information flow from the Buzz to the hospital network and other devices in the
hospital network is:
• Patient data transfer: Buzz receives data from a server inside the hospital network of the
hospital (e.g., PACS server)
• Remote access, Streaming or session sharing: the Buzz sends data to a streaming client
inside the hospital network of the hospital
