    Perfect for Large Multi-Building Campuses

    The Simplex ES Net IP-based fire and life safety network optimizes system design and installation flexibility while increasing network capacity, speed, and performance. ES Net supports ring, star, bus, and bridged ring network topologies. As you can combine multiple topologies, you can create fault-tolerant networks while mixing and matching media (Ethernet, DSL, and fiber) between nodes to optimize cost and span long distances. High speed and advanced design allow ES Net to carry fire alarm system data and audio traffic with plenty of bandwidth to spare. You can use that extra capacity to transport data from your other systems, such as access control security, and building automation, reducing network wiring, installation and equipment costs. ES Net is supervised and fault tolerant, with a peer-to-peer design that allows it to continue operating even if multiple nodes fail. ES Net also keeps fire alarm data separate from other traffic, ensuring it has top priority and always gets through.
    Perfect for Large Multi-Building Campuses

    Features

    • High speed, high capacity:The TCP/IP-based, 100 Mbps network supports up to seven network loops and 687 nodes.
    • Faster, easier system upgrades:A technician connected to a single ES Net node can upload software updates to all 99 nodes on a network loop in minutes.
    • Easy migration for existing Simplex installations: ES Net and Simplex 4120 networks can be integrated using a TrueSite Workstation, allowing both types of networks to be monitored on the same console.
    • Multiple topology support:A wide range of supported configurations means greater design and installation flexibility. ES Net also allows you to mix and match media.
    • Advanced diagnostics:Powerful network diagnostic tools and reports help reduce system troubleshooting time and technician effort.
    • Better fault tolerance and resiliency:ES Net is designed to be reliable and resilient, automatically reconfiguring communication when necessary.
