u 10/100 Base-T Ethernet communication for IPv6 and

IPv4 networks

The B426 Conettix Ethernet Communication Module is
a four-wire powered SDI, SDI2, or Option bus device
that provides two-way communication with compatible
control panels over IPv4 or IPv6 Ethernet networks.
Typical applications include:

• Reporting and path supervision to a Conettix
Communications Receiver/Gateway.

• Remote administration and control with Remote
Programming Software (RPS) or our Remote Security
Control application for handheld devices.

• Connection to building automation and integration
applications.

The B426 is built for a wide variety of secure
commercial and industrial applications. Flexible end­to-end path supervision, AES encryption, and anti­substitution features make B426 desirable for high
security and fire monitoring applications. It is capable
as a stand-alone path or it can be used in conjunction
with another communication technology. For Fire
Monitoring applications, the B426 meets UL864 and
NFPA72 standards for Single Communication
Technology with approved Bosch control panels.

System overview

Use the B426 for bi-directional communication over an
Ethernet network.

u NIST-FIPS197 Certified for 128-bit to 256-bit AES

Encrypted Line Security

u Plug and Play installation, including UPnP service to

enable remote programming behind firewalls

u Advanced configuration by browser or RPS with

compatible Bosch control panels

Functions

Conettix IP communication

The B426 uses Conettix IP protocol which supports:

• Full event code reporting and administration

• Flexible supervision intervals

• Resistance to Denial of Service attacks

• 128, 192 or 256-bit AES encryption

• Anti-replay and anti-substitution

Switch addressing

Use the address switch to easily assign a bus address
or setup for web configuration.

IP network support

Supports DHCP, UPnP, and Auto IP addressing by
default, but can also be configured for Static IP
networks. The B426 Conettix Ethernet Communication
Module is compatible with IPv6 or IPv4 networks. With
compatible control panels, it supports reporting to
receivers with Domain Name System (DNS) hostnames
for automatic disaster recovery.

Easy configuration

For most installations, the default B426 settings allow
installation with no computer required. An address
switch allows easy bus address selection. Universal
Plug and Play (UPnP) supports automatic UDP port
mapping for remote programming systems when
behind a firewall, as well as HTTP port mapping for
B426 web configuration. Auto IP enables a direct PC
connection without changing any PC network settings.
For customized network settings, the B426 supports a
full web configuration menu. B Series and GV4 Series
control panels support keypad and RPS programming
of B426 settings.

LEDs

Three LEDs provide status and troubleshooting
information about the module and its connection.

LED Description

Heartbeat Indicates the system status of the B426 and its

connection to the panel.

RX Indicates when an inbound packet is received on the

bus.

TX Indicates when an outbound packet is transmitted on

the bus.
