Network Connectivity Modules are used to monitor, control, and manage power supplies and connected devices through LifeSafety Power NetLink® and Multi-Site Manager (MSM Enterprise). These modules enable Managed Power features for connected modules and devices.
The NetLink Connect NLC Network Connectivity Module is an RS485 enabled device that communicates and controls power status over a local or wide area network. The NLC is the primary module in the LifeSafetyPower NetLink® technology suite enabling Managed Power Solutions for FlexPower systems. Each NLC can manage 31 NXB modules through a secure OSDP connection and 32 managed modules through an isolated RS485 connection.
The NetLink Connect NXB Network Connectivity Expansion Module allows multiple enclosures to be monitored by a single NLC module through a secure OSDP connection. The NXB must be used with an NLC and will not operate on its own. OSDP connections only support communication between NLC and NXB. Each NXB can monitor up to 32 managed modules through an isolated RS485 connection
