PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
> FEBnet Node locations will be different for every application. A basic block diagram of the system is
shown below.
> Important points to follow when deciding the location of each FEBnet Node:
• Always mount each FEBnet Node close to the center of the emergency ballast cluster.
• Each FEBnet Node should be connected to the FEBnet Hub with less than 3000 feet of cable.
• FEBnet Nodes should be directly connected to no more than two other FEBnet Nodes.
• Be aware of placing the FEBnet Node in or around metal objects. This can greatly decrease range.
• Each port on the FEBnet Hub will support no more than 256 FEBnet Nodes.
• See below for examples of correct and incorrect hub/node installations.
