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 transmissions 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 connection 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 the
High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net Instruction Manual for network configurations using the HS-NCM as a repeater.

NOTE: Once configured as a high-speed repeater, network monitoring equipment such as ONYXWorks or the
NCA-2 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.

6.1 Mounting Options

The HS-NCM is designed to mount in a variety of CAB-3/CAB-4 compatible chassis, in the NFS-320 enclosure, on a
BMP-1 blank plate for dress panel mounting, or behind the DVC-EM in the CA-1 or CA-2 audio chassis. HS-NCM-W
can be door-mounted; HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-WMF, HS-NCM-WSF, or HS-NCM-MFSF must be
installed in a stationary location. Recommended location is in the top row under the backbox’s knockout, so as to avoid
over-bending fiber-optic cable. Avoid mounting other option boards in front of HS-NCM so that its LEDs are visible.
Attach the HS-NCM using the four screws that ship with it.

Cabinet-mounting HS-NCM-W/HS-NCM-MF/HS-NCM-SF/HS-NCM-WMF/HS-NCM-WSF/HS-NCM-MFSF:

• CHS-4L/4N, CHS2-M3, CHS-M3, the NFS2-640 chassis or NFS-320 enclosure: Mount the HS-NCM in standard
option module positions as described in your control panel installation manual. Figure 4 shows CHS-4L as an
example.

• CA-1, CA-2: Mount the HS-NCM-W/MF/SF behind a DVC-EM in either the CA-1 or CA-2 audio chassis. Figure 5
illustrates how to install it in a CA-1. Mounting is the same behind a DVC-EM in the lower half-chassis of a CA-2.

NOTE: When mounting wire or fiber versions of the HS-NCM using the CHS-RL-MP chassis, refer to the
CHS-RL-MP Product Installation Document.

Door-mounting HS-NCM-W:

• Door-mount on the ADP-4B Dress Panel on a single-space blank plate (BMP-1) for mounting in a CAB-4 series
backbox, as described in Figure 6.

6.4 Mixing Wire & Fiber on One Network

In some networks, it may be necessary to mix twisted-pair wire and fiber-optic cable—use a HS-NCM-WMF or HS­NCM-WSF as an interface between wire and fiber.

Fiber ports are not polarity sensitive. However, port-to-port wiring for the HS-NCM wire connections are polarity
sensitive. When converting from a wire to fiber network, it may be necessary to change the port designation for the wire
connection on the HS-NCM-WMF/WSF. To change the wire port designation, the HS-NCM parameters must be changed
via VeriFire Tools. For instructions on how to change the HS-NCM parameters, refer to “HS-NCM Configuration” on
page 5.

Figure 10 Wire-to-Fiber Connections

See Section 3, “The Network Communications Module for Fiber (HS-NCM-MF, HS-NCM-SF, HS-NCM-MFSF)” for
requirements and restrictions on the use of fiber-optic cable. See the High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net™ Manual for a discussion
of all compatible configurations.
