High Speed NCM (HS-NCM)
HS-NCM Overview
Supports 200 nodes
No limitations when using a DVC to page over the
network
Two node addresses per HS-NCM
Compatible only with Onyx series panels (8th and
9th edition)
8th edition products can only be used in retrofit
applications
HS-NCM
Overview
NFN on IP based VDSL Network (Very High Data Rate
Subscriber Line)
• Does not use ARCnet protocol
The HS-NCM is NOT compatible with the standard
NCM Noti-Fire-Net Network.
Supports NUP (Notifier Universal Protocol)
Can be configured as a network repeater by setting
address to 0
Installs in same single module bay as NCM
HS-NCM
Overview
Each HS-NCM has:
• Two NUP Ports
ONYX FACP, NCA-2, DVC, Veri-Fire Tools and/or Gateway
• Two USB Connections
One Host Standard A and One On-The-Go Mini AB
Veri-Fire Tools
• External Power Connection (Remote
Repeater)
• Ethernet Port for Future Diagnostics

HS-NCM-W Wire Requirements
MUST be Twisted Pair
Prefer a Data Grade Cable (Belden)
Non-Shielded Wire for High Speed Communications
200 Nodes at 3,000’
• Belden 5320UJ 18/2 FPL
• Belden 5320UM 18/2 FPLR
• Genesis 4050 18/2 FPL
• Genesis 4631 18/2 FPLP
• Genesis 4433 14/2 FPLR
• Genesis 4633 14/2 FPLP
HS-NCM-W Wire Requirements
200 Nodes at 2,000’
• Genesis 4431 18/2 FPLR
200 Nodes at 1,000’
• Genesis 5500 18/2 FPLR
• Genesis 5502 16/2 FPLR
• Belden 5220UM 16/2 FPLR
200 Nodes at <1,000’
• Genesis 5504 14/2 FPLP
This cable did not pass the test for 200 nodes at distances
even less than 1,000’ and therefore should not be used as
a network segment cable
HS-NCM-MF (Multi-Mode
Fiber)
Data Rate of 100Mb
Supports Fiber Optic Cable
• 62.5/125 10dB Limit
• 50.0/125 6.5 dB Limit
NFPA Style 4 (Class B) or
Style 7 (Class A)
Data is regenerated at each
node
Fiber Connectors: LC Style
HS-NCM-SF (Single-Mode
Fiber)
Data Rate of 100Mb
Supports Fiber Optic Cable
• 9/125 30dB Limit
NFPA Style 4 (Class B) or
Style 7 (Class A)
Data is regenerated at each
node
Fiber Connectors: LC Style
HS-NCM-SF (Single-Mode
Fiber)
NO CONVERTERS REQUIRED !!!
Previous singlemode fiber segment required two NCM-F, two
14507714-001 singlemode converters and mounting kit.
