The ANN-LC (Lite-Connect) is a solution that allows building owners reduce the number of phone lines by consolidating the central station communications to a single MS-9050UD fire alarm control panel. Using fiber-optic technology, the panels are connected together and the MS-9050UD sends point or zone information to the Central Station for the entire system. In addition, a building to building connection with fiber-optic cable avoids potential ground fault issues and damage caused by lightning strikes.

• Fiber optic panel to panel connections to avoid potential ground faults or lightning strike issues
• Main MS-9050UD connects to up to 16 remote panels (MS-9050UD and MS-9200UDLS)
• Maximum attenuation of cabling between any two ANN-LC cards is 5 dB
• Each main MS-9050UD and remote panel requires its own ANN-LC module
• ANN-LC connects to the Secondary ANN-BUSon both of the fire panels and requires minimal programming for ease of installation

The SK-F485C is a module used in pairs to convert the Silent Knight IntelliKnight SBUS from wire to fiber and back again. The SK-F485C provides a solution to the high risk of lightning damage due to earth ground differentials between buildings.

Features

• Fiber solution allows one fire alarm control panel to protect multi-building applications eliminating the monitoring costs of multiple phone lines
• Eliminates the risk of lightning damage caused by running copper wire between buildings
• SK-F485C does not take up an SBUS address and allows for long distance location of SBUS accessories
• Multi-mode fiber distance up to 1 mile depending on db fiber rating
• UL listed
