Section 7: IT
IT: Ethernet/IP Network
IntelliCom and the Potter fire panels connect directly or through a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet wired connection.
IT: IntelliCom/IntelliView Network Bandwidth
IntelliCom Advanced Gateway is a low bandwidth system. Actual bandwidth usage will depend on the number of devices and
panel activity. A worst-case system with 1000 Panels will use 11 kbps.
IT: IP Addresses
The IntelliCom Advanced Gateway and fire panels can use a static IP address or DHCP. Using static IP addresses will reduce
the risk of communication problems. Potter requires an IP latency of less than 200ms.
IT: Cybersecurity
The IntelliCom Advanced Gateway has encrypted communications as follows:
Communication Information
•
