1.1.1 About Workstation Ethernet Network Installations
The FocalPoint™ Workstation is a Proprietary Supervising Station that has a supervised client
server architecture that communicates over IP networks. The Ethernet network can be a shared
bandwidth system that operates over topologies such as an intranet, the Internet, or a frame relay
system.
If the Workstation or gateway is sharing on-premises communications equipment, the shared
equipment shall be “listed for the purpose”. “Listed for the purpose” has been formally interpreted
by NFPA (Formal Interpretation 72-99-1) for equipment on packet switched networks as being
listed to the requirements applicable to general purpose communications network equipment.
For ULC applications, the Internet cannot be used for either primary or ancillary functionality.
