10 Networking with Physical Bridges Overview Physical bridges are cable connections between 4100-series network nodes. They are the means by which each node in a system communicates with the other, and with the master controller. In most cases, the cable that makes up the physical bridge connects to two physical bridge cards one card per network node. The physical bridge card is basically a 4100 network interface card with three communication ports: the usual left and right network ports, plus a bridging port. The bridging port (combined with the modem media module) communicates with the remote network node s bridge card over dedicated, leased telephone lines using a special Simplex-developed communications protocol that enables full-duplex communication between physical bridge cards. In a typical configuration, one physical bridge card represents all the nodes in the main loop and sends information over the bridge to the remote physical bridge card and network. In order for the remote physical bridge card to accept information intended for another node in its remote loop, the physical bridge card becomes a proxy: it assumes the identity of that specified node. The information is finally sent from the remote physical bridge card to the specified node. Continued on next page 8

11 Networking with Physical Bridges Networked Systems Networked systems support two prevalent architectures (or wiring configurations): hub (or ring), or star. A networked system can also use a combination of the two. Hub and Star Configurations The hub configuration consists of a main loop with nodes connected in a radial manner. The star configuration consists of several nodes connected directly to one common node. Physical bridge cards are used for the star configuration. Physical bridges reduce the amount of wire that would otherwise be needed to connect all nodes in a loop, and therefore cut down on system response time. A combination of the two styles is illustrated in Figure 1.

Hub/Ring Configuration Continued on next page 9

12 Networking with Physical Bridges Connecting Loops Network loops can be joined via physical bridge cards. There may be no more than two Style 7 network loops (two hub configurations) connected in tandem. For every two loops that are interconnected (using one physical bridge), there can be a maximum of three physical bridges used in a star configuration. See Figure 2.

20 DIP Switch and Jumper Settings Overview The DIP switch and jumper settings for the physical bridge card and the modem media module vary, depending on whether Style 4 or Style 7 wiring is used. DIP Switch Settings / Physical Bridge Card: SW2-1 - Operation Disable ON = Normal Operation OFF = Disables bridge, forcing bridge to act as a local repeater. (This function allows the technician to validate topology information on the local loop.) SW2-2 and SW2-3 - Token-Holding Time These switches indicate how many messages a bridge can send during one token time. A bridge should get more turns if it represents more nodes. Possible values are: ON, ON = 1 time unit (2 remote nodes or less) ON, OFF = 4 time units (3 to 5 remote nodes) OFF, ON = 8 time units (6 to 12 remote nodes) OFF, OFF = 16 time units (more than 12 remote nodes) Note: These switches must be set the same way on both sides of the bridge. SW2-4 and Reserved Note: Make certain that these switches are in the ON position. SW2-6 - Style Selection This switch indicates whether the remote bridge connection is Style 4 or Style 7. Possible values are: ON = Style 4 OFF = Style 7 SW2-8 - Send / Receive Select This switch indicates whether the bridge is to be an originator (sender) or an answerer (receiver). Possible values are: ON = Originator (Sender) OFF = Answerer (Receiver) Configure the main network loop bridge node as the Originator and all of the remote bridge nodes as Answerers.

35 Installing Daughter Cards Overview In a Style 4 configuration, the physical bridge card has to be connected to the motherboard. The same goes for the Style 7 configuration, with the additional requirement of having the Style 7 module connected to its own motherboard. The Style 7 configuration also calls for ribbon cable connections between the physical bridge and media mounting adapter card. This section describes Style 4 and Style 7 daughter card installation, respectively. Installing the Physical Bridge Card (Styles 4 and 7) The physical bridge daughter card, shown in Figure 19 below, inserts into the connector located in the center of the motherboard. The connector is keyed so that the daughter card fits only one way. Before installing the card, examine the slot in the motherboard and the fingers on the daughter card and note where the key is located. FigureTag FD Figure 19. Physical Bridge Daughter Card Installation Continued on next page 33

36 Installing Daughter Cards Installing the Style 7 Module Make sure two Class B Motherboards (supplied) are side by side in the first available panel locations, and that the physical bridge card is connected to the first motherboard (see Installing the Physical Bridge Card (Styles 4 and 7), above). At this point, the Style 7 module must be connected to the second motherboard and wired appropriately. Refer to Figure 20 as you read the following instructions. 1. Connect the Style 7 module in the same way you connected the physical bridge card. 2. Once the adapter is in place, use a Ribbon Cable (supplied) to connect P1 (the 10-pin service port) on the physical bridge card to P2 on the Style 7 module. 3. Use a Ribbon Cable (supplied) to connect P2 on the physical bridge card to P1 on the Style 7 module. FigureTag FD " 4" NIC PHYSICAL BRIDGE CARD STYLE 7 MODULE Figure 20.

37 Wiring Guidelines Overview Review the following guidelines before connecting physical bridge cards that are remote from each other. General Guidelines Make sure these guidelines are accounted for before wiring: All wires must be 18 AWG, or as the local code dictates. Conductors must test free of all grounds. All wiring must be done using copper conductors only, unless noted otherwise. If shielded wire is used, - the metallic continuity of the shield must be maintained throughout the entire cable length. - the entire length of the cable must have a resistance greater than 1 Megohm to earth ground. Underground wiring must be free of all water. In areas of high lightning activity, or in areas that have large power surges, the Transient Suppressor should be used on monitor points. Wires must not be run through elevator shafts. Wires that run in plenum must be in conduit. Splicing is permitted. All spliced connections must either be soldered (resin-core solder), crimped in metal sleeves, or encapsulated with an epoxy resin. When soldering or crimped metal sleeves are used, the junction must be insulated with a high-grade electrical tape that is as sound as the original insulating jacket. Shield continuity must be maintained throughout. A system ground must be provided for earth detection and lightning protection devices. This connection must comply with approved earth detection per NFPA780. Only system wiring can be run together in the same conduit. Transient Suppressor is required for each modem-to-telephone line connection. To Modem Media Module Transient Suppressor Assembly ( ) added to RJ-31x as shown. If connecting to a terminal block, cut off one end of the cable. Strip back the cable to connect the two center wires, normally red and green, to the red and green wires in the block.

38 Wiring Guidelines Power-Limited Guidelines Make sure these guidelines are accounted for before wiring for power-limited systems: Non-power limited field wiring (AC power, batteries, City connection) must be installed and routed in the shaded areas shown in Figure 22. Power-limited field wiring must be installed and routed in the non-shaded areas shown in Figure 22, with the exception of City wiring. Excess slack should be kept to a minimum inside the back box enclosure. The wiring should be neatly dressed and bundled together using the wire ties provided with the equipment. Anchor power-limited wiring to tie points, as shown in Figure 22. CONDUIT ENTRANCE FOR POWER-LIMITED WIRING CONDUIT ENTRANCE FOR NON-POWER LIMITED WIRING NON-POWER LIMITED WIRING POWER-LIMITED WIRING TIE POINT (LOCATION MAY VARY) Figure 22. Power-Limited Wiring Tie the wiring located between bays to the internal wiring troughs, if applicable. When powering remote units or switching power through relay contacts, power for these circuits must be provided by a power-limited power supply that listed for fireprotective signaling use. An EOL relay must be used to supervise the auxiliary power circuit. Continued on next page 36

39 Wiring Guidelines Modem Guidelines Review the following guidelines before wiring a network with modem media boards. Modem media wiring for NICs applies to non-4100u/4100es systems only. Phone Line Classification consists of the following: - Private leased line for analog data communications - No dialtone - Full duplex operation - No conditioning required - No signaling required - Two-wire line interface - RJ-11 modular jack If a four-wire circuit is required, the line must include a data station termination (DST) device to provide the two-wire interface required by the 4120 network modem. The DST device should be located as close to the FACP as possible to minimize dry line signal losses. The modem is capable of full duplex V.32bis analog data communications. The transmit signal level is 10 dbm. Telecommunications device: Xecom Model XE1414 or XE1414C V.32bis Two-Wire Analog Modem Modem FCC Registration Number: DWEUSA FA-E ( ); DWEUSA M5-E ( ) Modem Communication Distances The following distances apply to leased modem lines: Short haul twisted pair lines (dry lines): #26 AWG: 9,500 ft (2.85 km) #24 AWG: 15,000 ft (4.5 km) Long haul twisted pair lines (wet lines): Unlimited Continued on next page 37

40 Wiring Guidelines Physical Bridge Wiring Guidelines Refer to the following guidelines whenever field wiring the physical bridges. Network nodes must be wired right to left port, regardless of the media type selected. Style 7 protection is achieved by wiring the nodes in a loop fashion. A single fault (except an Earth fault) will cause the network to reconfigure for degraded Style 7 (Style 4) operation. A second fault (except an Earth fault) will result in the network dividing into two separate networks. Style 4 is achieved by wiring the nodes in a linear fashion. Style 4 networks are not fault-tolerant and a single fault (except an Earth fault) will result in the network dividing into two separate networks. Earth fault detection is performed on the left port only. When a network Earth fault occurs, the trouble is only reported on the node whose left port is connected to the span. All 18 AWG wiring used with Wired Media Cards must be twisted shielded pair. All 24 AWG (telephone cable) used with must be twisted pair. When shielded cable is used, the shield must be terminated to chassis Earth on the left port only. It is permissible to use mixed media in a network. For example, some spans may be wired media while others are optical fiber or telephone modem. Each physical bridge card has a jumper for selecting between network data rates of 57.6 kbps and 9.6 kbps. All cards in the network must be set for the 9.6 kbps data rate when modem media or physical bridging is used. Each NIC has a jumper for selecting between 8- and 9-bit network protocols. All cards in the network must be set for the 8-bit network protocol when modem media or physical bridging is used. All network wiring except the shield is supervised. When wiring leaves the building, Overvoltage Protectors are required. One overvoltage protector is installed where wiring leaves the building; another is installed where wiring enters the next building. Continued on next page 38
