Addressable Node Expander - Multi Ring

The ANX2-MR allows the E3 Series and S3 Series Networks to expand to two rings. Each ring contains up to 61 nodes, not including the ANX2-MR. By bridging the two networks together, each of the E3 and S3 network node counts are increased to 122 nodes. The multi-ring network expansion can activate outputs on any node on the bridged networks including the Control-by-Event functions originating from a connected network (See Figure 1-Shared Ring Capability). Audio paging and voice messages are also transferred over the two networks through the ANX2-MR.
