463C CDMA Cellular Communicator

Description

The 463C CDMA Cellular Communicator provides a fully supervised alarm communication path over the CDMA network. The 

463C is installed in the panel J6 Interface Card connection or a 461 Interface Adaptor card and powered by the panel so no 

additional enclosure, power supply or battery back-up is needed.

What is Included

The 463C includes the following:

• One Model 463C

• One Model 381-2 18-inch Coax cable with SMA connector

• One Model 300 4-Wire LX-Bus harness

• One Model 383 Rubber Duck Antenna

Compatibility

The 463C is compatible with the XR100/XR500 Series panels using software Version 211 or higher.

Installation Safety

Ground Yourself Before Handling the Panel! To discharge static, touch any grounded metal, such as the enclosure, before 

touching the panel.

Remove All Power From the Panel! 

Remove all AC and

 Battery power from the panel before installing or

 connecting any modules, cards, or wires to the panel.

Installing the 463C

Align the 463C card 50 pin connector with the J6 connector and 

press the card onto the connector while applying even pressure to 

both sides of the board. See Figure 1.

Connecting the Antenna

1.  Position one of the supplied washers onto the SMA connector 

and push the threaded end through an enclosure knockout.

2.  Position the second washer onto the threaded end  extending 

through the knockout and secure the nut.

3.  Attach the included 383C Antenna to the SMA connector.

 

See Figure 1.

  As an alternative, the antenna coax can be connected directly 

to the 463C SMA connector when the coax enters the enclosure 

via conduit.

LX-Bus™ Expansion Capability

The 463C card also provides a 4-wire LX-Bus™ for the addition of 

any combination of 100 protection zones and 100 relay outputs. Insert the harness 

connector into the 4-pin LX-Bus header on the bottom of the 463C Interface Card.

Note: 

Do not use shielded wire when using the LX-Bus. Do not connect the wires 

from the 463C to panel terminals or the panel J22 header.
