9. Set the HS-NCM parameters as needed and click "Update"
Addresses:
IP - Network address associated with the HS-NCM. Default to all zeros when in
repeater mode. Not user-modifiable
MAC - Factory-set identification code for the HS-NCM. Not user-modifiable.
Port A Mode:
For HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SFand HS-NCM-MFSF:
Port A Mode is not applicable for Fiber ports. Port A Mode will automatically be
configured as "Fiber" and can not be user modified.
For HS-NCM-W:
Port A Mode will be automatically configured to the "To Port B" setting and must be
connected to a wire port on the next HS-NCM that is configured in "To Port A"
mode.
Port A Mode is defaulted to the "To BR Port B" setting. It
For HS-NCM-W-2:
must be connected to a wire port on the next HS-NCM that is configured for "To
BR Port A" mode.
For HS-NCM-WMF/WMF-2 and HS-NCM-WSF/WSF-2:
Port A Mode is automatically configured to the "To Port B" mode, but can be user
modified to the "To Port A" setting if the connection must be made to a wire port that
is already set in the "To Port B" mode.
Port B Mode:
For HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF and HS-NCM-MFSF:
Port B Mode is not applicable for Fiber ports. Port B Mode will automatically be
configured as "Fiber" and can not be user modified.
For HS-NCM-W:
Port B Mode will be automatically configured to the "To Port A" setting and must be
connected to a wire port on the next HS-NCM that is configured in "To Port B"
mode.
Port B Mode is defaulted to the "To BR Port A" setting and
For HS-NCM-W-2:
must be connected to a wire port on the next HS-NCM that is configured for "To
BR Port B Mode.
For HS-NCM-WMF/WMF-2 and HS-NCM-WSF/WSF-2:
Port B Mode is not applicable for Fiber ports. Port B Mode will automatically be
configured as "Fiber" and can not be user modified.
Port A VDSL Speed: (Wire Only)
Bandwidth speed for voice transmissions for port A. This applies for wire ports only.
Available options are 3 Mb, 6 Mb, 12 Mb (default), or 24 Mb. Not user-modifiable.
Port B VDSL Speed: (Wire Only)
Bandwidth speed for voice transmissions for port B. This applies for wire ports only.
Available options are 3 Mb, 6 Mb, 12 Mb (default), or 24 Mb. Not user-modifiable.
Ethernet:
The Ethernet port (RJ45) default setting is disabled. You must select "Ethernet
Enabled" if you are bridging a different network, such as VDSL to BR.
5.1 HS-NCM Configured as a High-Speed Repeater
The HS-NCM can be configured as a repeater to boost data signals between network nodes, to extend communication distances or to pass data trans-
missions between two differently configured network segments when wire and fiber co-exist on a network. Once connected to an FACP, the HS-NCM
will evaluate the network programming of the fire panel and set it's node address accordingly. When power is applied to the HS-NCM without connec-
tion via the NUP port to an FACP, the HS-NCM will automatically configure itself as a repeater and it's node address will be defaulted to zero. Refer
to Figure 7, "HS-NCM Repeater Installation Limitations" on page 9 when using the HS-NCM as a repeater.
NOTE: Once configured as a high-speed repeater, network monitoring equipment such as ONYXWorks, NCA-2, or NCD can not monitor any
events that occur on the HS-NCM.
NOTE: If the HS-NCM is connected to an external power source and then disconnected from an FACP, it may take up to 30 seconds for the
HS-NCM to reconfigure itself as a repeater.
