The module must be integrated with compatible Challenger panels and LAN devices, with low-voltage wiring and network configuration completed in accordance with the system design.
Applications
- Extending Challenger alarm and access-control LANs over IP networks
- Connecting remote arming stations to Challenger control panels
- Connecting data gathering panels over existing Ethernet infrastructure
- Connecting intelligent door and lift controllers across IP networks
- Reducing the need for dedicated long-distance RS-485 cabling
Standards & Compliance
- Applicable to intruder-alarm transmission system installations designed in accordance with AS/NZS 2201.5:2008; product-specific standards certification is not stated
- Installation wiring should be completed in accordance with applicable requirements of AS/NZS 3000:2018 where relevant
Environmental Benefits
- Uses existing IP network infrastructure, potentially reducing the quantity of dedicated twisted-pair cabling required
- Supports system expansion and remote device connection without replacing the main Challenger panel
- Long-term electronic interface use can reduce replacement of otherwise serviceable alarm-system infrastructure
