MultiTransmitter Fibra user manual
MultiTransmitter Fibra is an integration module connecting third-party wired
devices to an Ajax security system. It has 18 zones for connecting NC, NO, EOL,
2EOL, and 3EOL devices.
MultiTransmitter Fibra is equipped with two tampers for protection against
dismantling. The device is powered from the 100–240 V~ mains, and can also be
powered from the 12 V⎓ backup battery. It can supply 10.5–15 V⎓ power to
connected devices.
The integration module is compatible with
Connection to other
not provided.
MultiTransmitter Fibra works as part of an Ajax security system, exchanging data
with the hub using the secure Fibra wired protocol. The wired connection range is
up to 2,000 meters when using a U/UTP cat.5 twisted pair.

Summary of Contents for AJAX MultiTransmitter Fibra

  • Page 1 Updated July 19, 2024 MultiTransmitter Fibra is an integration module connecting third-party wired devices to an Ajax security system. It has 18 zones for connecting NC, NO, EOL, 2EOL, and 3EOL devices. MultiTransmitter Fibra is equipped with two tampers for protection against dismantling.

  • Page 2: Functional Elements

    MultiTransmitter Fibra is a product of the Fibra wired lineup. The installation, sale, and administration of these devices are performed only by accredited Ajax partners.

  • Page 5 Hub Hybrid sends messages to users and the security company CMS (central monitoring station). MultiTransmitter Fibra is used to integrate alarm and auxiliary request alert buttons, indoor and outdoor motion detectors. As well as detectors that track opening, vibration, glass breaking, fire, gas and water leakage, etc.
  • Page 6 Tamper alarm Event of a detector or device tamper triggering. Alarm when motion, opening, and other detectors are Intrusion triggered. Fire Alarm when fire detectors are triggered. Auxiliary alarm Alarm when pressing the call button for assistance. Panic button Alarm when the panic button is pressed. Gas alarm Alarm when gas concentration is exceeded.
  • Page 7 Leakage Alarm caused by flooding. Alarm when the glass break sensor is triggered. Glass break This event type operates only in Pulse operating mode. High temperature Alarm when the upper temperature limit is exceeded. Low temperature Alarm when the lower temperature limit is exceeded. Masking Alarm when the device masking is detected.
  • Page 8 3EOL (connection with three resistors).   In the Ajax app, you can select the normal state (normally open or normally closed) for each of the terminal pairs: alarm, tamper, and malfunction terminals. This allows connecting any potential-free (“dry”) contact detector of any configuration to MultiTransmitter Fibra.

  • Page 9: Selecting The Installation Place

    All Ajax devices are addressable, so events, the device type, its assigned name and room can be transmitted to PRO Desktop and the CMS. The list of transmitted parameters may differ depending on the type of the CMS and the selected communication protocol.
  • Page 10 — for example, in the storage room. This helps to reduce the risk of sabotage of the integration module and devices connected to it. Selecting the installation site for MultiTransmitter Fibra, take into account the parameters that affect the operation of the device module: Fibra signal strength.
  • Page 11 Tips for designing Fibra wired systems are available in this article Topologies At the moment, Ajax security systems support two topologies — Beam (Radial wiring) and Ring.  Connecting devices using a Ring topology will be implemented in the next OS Malevich updates.
  • Page 12 Ring connection occupies two Fibra lines of the hub. If the ring breaks in one place, no device will be disabled. The ring reconfigures into two lines, which continue to operate normally. Users and security company will receive notification about the break. Beam (Radial wiring) Ring occupies one Fibra line of the hub...
  • Page 13 Cable length and type For MultiTransmitter Fibra The maximum range of a wired connection using the Beam (Radial) topology is 2,000 meters, and using the Ring topology — 500 meters.

  • Page 14: Additional Information

    Up to 100 devices can be connected to Hub Hybrid at default settings. Each device connected to MultiTransmitter Fibra also occupies one slot within the device limit of the hub. MultiTransmitter Fibra supports EOL resistors with resistance from 1 to 15 kOhm.
