Network Design
4-12 Site Planning and Preparation
Equipment required for this installation is the following:
• 8 beds, each with a hardwired bedside patient monitor
• 2 telemetry monitors on one telemetry mainframe
• 1 Information Center with 8 patient (Option #A08) and full alarm and wave review
capability
• 1 System Communications Controller
With 2 telemetry monitors, any 2 of the 8 patients can be transferred to telemetry monitoring
with no loss of patient monitoring and data storage. This Patient Care Network can be
expanded to 12 beds by adding the 4 patient upgrade Option #C44 to the Information Center.
Additional telemetry monitoring capability can be obtained by adding telemetry monitors and
mainframes to the SCC.
