Network System Hardware Features
IFP-2000 panels can be networked to create a virtual system that is larger than 636
addressable points. It is possible to have up to eight IFP-2000/RPS-2000 panels networked
providing a maximum addressable point capacity of 5,088 points (636 x 8 = 5,088).
5.1.1
Networked Sites
A networked site is a logical group of IFP-2000 and/or RPS-2000 panels that behave as
though the logical group is one large control panel. Each building is referred to as a “site”. All
panels in a site operate as a single panel. The control functions like reset, silence or alarm
activation operate across the entire site. There can be one or more logical sites within a
networked system. Taken to the extreme, the maximum number of sites within a network
system is limited to 8 with each site comprised of only one panel. Alternatively, the maximum
number of panels within a site is limited to 8 panels which is also the maximum panel capacity
of a networked system.
5.1.2
Wiring Options to Connect Networked Panels
1. Direct Connect - Panels can be connected cost effectively via shielded twisted pair copper
wire within conduit when the panels are located no more than 20 feet apart and in the same
room.
2. Repeater Connection - Panels separated by more than 20 feet or are located in multiple
buildings, must use the P/N IFP-RPT network repeater hardware to provide up to 3000
feet of separation with twisted pair copper wire or up to 8dB loss of signal separation for
fiber optic cable.
All methods of panel connectivity can be used within the same networked system. The
network architecture provides true peer to peer capability allowing network survivability for
all hardware that remains operational in the event of partial system failure.
5.2
Model RPS-2000
The model RPS-2000 provides the same power and point capacity of an IFP-2000 panel, but
does not include any user interface. It is used in networked systems where added power and/or
point capacity is required but where additional user interface is not needed.
