COMMUNICATION CONNECTIONS
COMMUNICATION
Each Accelaterm may communicate with the Host Computer
or Server via an Ethernet connection. Or each Accelaterm
may communicate through a high speed full-duplex (4-wire)
EIA/TIA-485 Network connected to the Accelaterm commu-
nicating to the host computer / server via Ethernet.
By adding the Ethernet Plug-in Module,
(CICP18ACCNETBD), a connection to the Host Sever or its
Bridge can be made using CAT5/6 UTP cable. This offers
excellent data rates as well as high isolation for protection
from the damaging effects of lightning.
Installing the isolated CICP2800RS485BD board allows di-
rect connection with other Access Control Panels upstream
and downstream on a 4-wire Repeater String. This allows for
high data rates and industry-leading isolation from very high-
energy transients, adding ground-loop isolation to already
proven built-in surge protection technology.
By setting the Bridge/STD Configuration jumper (J1) to
Bridge, and installing both the Ethernet Module and the
CICP2800RS485BD board, an Accelaterm control panel
forms a fast and reliable data bridge between the Ethernet and
the EIA-EIA/TIA-485 Repeater Network.
