Gamewell-FCI RPT-E3-UTP ARCNET Network Repeater Module

The Gamewell-FCI RPT-E3-UTP is an intelligent ARCNET network repeater module designed to extend and enhance communication within E3 Series® and S3 Series fire alarm control panels. Utilizing unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) wiring, it facilitates reliable data transmission between remote subassemblies and the central control system, ensuring robust network performance in complex installations. 

Key Features

• ARCNET Communication: Employs 625K baud ARCNET protocol to maintain high-speed, reliable data exchange across the fire alarm network.

• UTP Connectivity: Connects using unshielded twisted-pair wiring, simplifying installation and reducing material costs.

• Flexible Configuration: Supports both Class B (Style 4) and Class A (Style 7) wiring configurations, accommodating various system design requirements.

• Modular Design: Compatible with multiple cabinet configurations, including E3 Series and S3 Series systems, allowing for scalable network expansion.

• LED Indicators: Features onboard LEDs for status indication, aiding in diagnostics and maintenance.

• Regulatory Compliance: Meets UL 864 10th Edition, UL 2572, FM Approved, CSFM, and City of Chicago Class 1, 2, and High-Rise standards.

This module is essential for extending the reach of fire alarm networks, particularly in large or complex facilities where standard communication distances are insufficient. Its integration ensures seamless operation and coordination across all connected devices within the fire safety system.
