When installing a HS-NCM (High-Speed Network Communications Module) on high-speed networks and workstations, adhere to the following to
avoid permanent damage:
•
Do not attempt to upgrade HS-NCM to software v30.x (or higher) on a network that utilizes v20 HS-NCMs using v20.4 (or lower) software. This
will result in permanent damage to all v20 HS-NCMs on the network
•
Attempting to individually upgrade any v20 HS-NCM with software V30.x (or higher) will result in permanent damage
•
When using v30 HS-NCM, VeriFire Tools v8.20 (or higher) is required for all HS-NCM software upgrades
•
When using an Ethernet cable (RJ45) to bridge a VDSL network with a BoradR-Reach network use VeriFire Tools version 10.80 (or higher)
•
When a HS-NCM-W-2, HS-NCM-WMF-2 or HS-NCM-WSF-2 is used in a network use VeriFire Tools version 10.80 (or higher)

The High-Speed Network Communications Module (HS-NCM) provides a means for connecting specific Notifier fire alarm control products to High-
Speed NOTI•FIRE•NET™. There are six types of HS-NCMs available: HS-NCM-W/W-2 for connecting nodes with twisted-pair wire; HS-NCM-MF
and HS-NCM-SF are used for connecting nodes with fiber-optic cable; HS-NCM-WMF/WMF-2 and HS-NCM-WSF/WSF-2 are used for connecting
nodes with fiber-optic cables to nodes with twisted-pair wire; HS-NCM-MFSF for connecting nodes with multi-mode fiber cable to nodes with single-
mode fiber cable. The following equipment may be used with the HS-NCM:
* Power for the HS-NCM for use with 10th Edition panels is provided via the NUP connection on the FACP itself or an external UL/ULC listed power
supply.
† Power for the HS-NCM for use with UL 8th Edition panels must be provided by a 24 VDC UL/ULC listed power supply.
*
The following revisions
of the UL 10th edition panels require a 24 VDC UL/ULC listed power source to power the HS-NCM and cannot be pow-
ered via the panel's NUP port
* The revision and assembly name can be found on the fire panel's circuit board.
† NUP Port connections are still required for communication between the HS-NCM and the fire panel. TX, RX, and GND connections must be used for
NUP connections.
‡ If TB1 is utilized to power the HS-NCM, a UL Listed, Regulated, Power Limited 24VDC power source is required

- Page 2 NOTE: All wiring connections are supervised and power limited. One HS-NCM can provide network communication for up to two nodes (including fire alarm control panels and network annunciators). Per UL 864 10th Edition, the HS-NCM uses Active Multiplex Type 3 Communication. The HS-NCM can also be configured as a high-speed repeater for applications requiring distances beyond the specified limits between two nodes.

- Page 15 6.4 Mixing Wire & Fiber on One Network In some networks, it may be necessary to mix twisted-pair wire and fiber-optic cable. Use a HS-NCM-WMF/WMF-2 or HS-NCM-WSF/WSF-2 as an interface between wire and fiber. Fiber ports are not polarity sensitive. However, port-to-port wiring for the HS-NCM wire connections are polarity sensitive. When converting from a wire to fiber network, it may be necessary to change the port designation for the wire connection on the HS-NCM-WMF/WSF/WMF-2/WSF-2.
