Notice!
An exclusive Ethernet network is required in order to set up a central fire alarm network.
The use of a fire alarm system in any other Ethernet network is at the own risk of the user.
Bosch disclaims any and all warranties and liabilities for this misapplication.
In case of non-exclusive Ethernet network reliable alarm transmission and IT-security cannot
be ensured.
Panel network
Notice!
EN 54
To ensure that the network is set up in compliance with EN 54, use only components that
have been approved for use in central fire alarm networks.
External RSTP switches and media converters in Ethernet networks must be installed in panel
housings. The installation outside of a panel housing is not compliant with EN 54.
Notice!
TX cable length
All IP connections must be direct or via media converters approved by Bosch. The node to
node TX cable length must be less than 100 m.
Notice!
VdS 2540
To meet the requirements of VdS 2540 for data transmission paths use fiber optic cable for
Ethernet connections. For connections within a housing you can use TX Ethernet cables.
Notice!
For standard applications, use standard network settings.
Changes to standard network settings are permitted only for experienced users with
appropriate networking knowledge.
2 Introduction
This document is aimed at readers with experience in planning and installing EN 54 compliant
fire alarm systems. In addition, you need networking knowledge.
This document describes a variety of fire alarm network topologies. The topologies are
described independently of the fire panel type.
For building up panel networks corresponding to the introduced topologies and connecting
services, you need the networking pattern described in this document.
The document provides an overview of the basic conditions, limit values, and general
procedures for panel network planning and installation.
Detailed descriptions of the installation of the individual components can found in the
respective installation guides.
You find a description of the user interface of the panel controller in the user guide included
with the device.
The user interface of the FSP-5000-RPS programming software is described in the online help.
