1. PSU Connection
The NK-IPS is powered by a +15V DC external power supply. This can be either an NK-RP1 power supply
which is shipped as standard or an NK-RP1/NK-RPN1 redundant power supply purchased as an option.
2. T-BUS Connections
The NK-IPS has eight T-BUS connections (RJ-45) to connect to devices. This provides options for connection of
T-Bus devices either as a daisy-chained or star configuration, or a combination of the two topologies.
3. Service Port
The Service port is a RS-232 connection for factory use only (service and maintenance) and is not for customer
use.
4. ETHERNET Connection
The Ethernet port is an RJ45 connector used to connect the NK-IPS to a network hub or network card.
