INX
Description
The Gamewell-FCI, INX Intelligent Network Transponder
serves as the point of distribution for the system’s audio
and fire fighter telephone risers. It is a component of the
following systems.
• E3 Series^® Expandable Emergency Evacuation System
• E3 Series Combined Fire and Mass Notification System
• E3 Series Broadband Audio Evacuation System
The INX occupies a single node on the E3 Broadband net-
work and is connected by a single pair of unshielded,
twisted wires, fiber-optic cable or any combination of the
two. Each E3 Broadband node can be spaced on the net-
work up to a maximum distance of 3,000 feet (914.4 m) or up
to an 8 dB loss using a fiber-optic cable. Built-in isolation at
each node permits Style 4, Style 6, and Style 7 network
configurations.
The E3 Broadband Audio Evacuation System is a peer-to-
peer, self-regenerating, token ring network comprised of up
to 64 individual nodes. In addition, the Addressable Node
Expander (ANX) board expands the network to 122 nodes.
The E3 Broadband employs proven technology and
extends it to accomplish emergency voice evacuation, 2-
way fire fighter communications, and building control appli-
cations. It is unique in the industry since it requires only a
single pair of wires or fiber-optic cable connections
between nodes to convey all fire alarm, digital voice, fire
fighter communications, paging, and building control sig-
nals. This system provides a 16 message capacity with up
to a 3 minute duration per INX. Messages are easily field-
configurable with a laptop computer
A typical INX assembly consists of the following:
• an Intelligent Network Interface-Voice Gateway
(INI-VGX) module
• a PM-9/PM-9G power supply
• up to 4 AM-50 Series amplifiers including a minimum of
one backup amplifier
It is enclosed in a compact 19” enclosure capable of
accommodating up to 12 A/H size batteries. The modular
approach of the E3 Broadband greatly simplifies the design
and the installation and allows the complete flexibility in ret-
rofit or add-on situations. This system is ideal for a wide
range of complex system applications including high-rise or
campus installations.
