2 HS-NCM Installation Document — P/N 54014:B2 04/25/2014
2 The Network Communications Module for Wire (HS-NCM-W)
• Supports twisted-pair wire medium.
• NFPA Style 4 (Class B) operation or NFPA Style 7
(Class A) operation.
• Transformer coupling provides electrical isolation
between nodes.
• Pluggable terminal wiring with strain relief.
• Pluggable service connector (feeds signal directly
through) in the event that power must be removed from
a node (HS-NBB).
• Data is regenerated at each node.
• Two network ports to allow simultaneous connection
of up to two fire alarm control panels and a
programming computer.
• Enables software and database upload/download over
High-Speed Noti•Fire•Net.
