4.2.2 AutroNet
A network solution (AutroNet) with more than two panels requires the
use of switches. Only Phoenix Ethernet switches are approved and
supported by Autronica Fire and Security AS.
For approved switches refer to System Decription, Phoenix Ethernet
Switches.
The switch type and the number of switches depend on the actual
installation / network design (number of panels and the distances
between the panels/switches).
AutroSafe uses a redundant network and for increased safety
switches in the two networks should be powered from different
sources.
The figure below shows a typical network system.
If the transmission length between two Ethernet switches exceeds 100
meters, a fibre optic cable can be used to achieve longer distances.
An Ethernet switch equipped with a multi-mode or single-mode fiber
optic port is required.
AutroNet networks are formed between panels for data exchanging
throughout the system. This solution provides I/O status availability at
any panel connected to the same network. The top-level DCS or HMI
communication link can therefore be connected to any panel in an
AutroNet, or to any switch in the network directly.
