EchoConnect and Ethernet Requirements
The Expansion Bridge requires EchoConnect, Belden 8471 (or equivalent)
plus one ESD ground wire, supporting data and control to each attached
EchoConnect station bus. Termination is available for up to four
EchoConnect segments. Reference

The Expansion Bridge is also designed for communication over Ethernet
with a Paradigm architectural control system or wireless system for
connection to the EchoAccess App.
Ethernet connects to the provided RJ45 receptacle and complies with the
EIA/TIA standard. A network switch (if desired) and wireless access point
are required (not provided).
