Bosch Security Systems | 2007-02 | 9922 141 70691 enDCN Wireless | Installation and User Instructions | System Design and Planning en | 121 Wireless network design1.1 IntroductionThe DCN Wireless has three parts: the wireless network, the DCN and the optical network. This chapter tells how to design the wireless network.1.2 LimitsLimit 1: Control capacityThe maximum number of devices in the wireless network that the central control unit can control is 150.Limit 2: Coverage areaFor a good operation of the wireless part, all wireless discussion units need to be in range of the wireless access point. The wireless access point has a typical maximum coverage area of 30 m by 30 m. To determine the exact coverage area the coverage test kit can be used.Limit 3: FrequencyThe wireless network must operate in a different frequency band than adjacent wireless computer networks (refer to section 1.3).1.3 Frequency band1.3.1 802.11g specificationThe wireless network is based on the 802.11g specification for WiFi technology. Devices that comply to the 802.11g specification operate in frequency bands between 2.4000 and 2.4835 GHz.1.3.2 Wireless computer networksWireless computer networks are also based on the 802.11g specification for WiFi technology. In the wireless computer networks, 13 overlapping channels are available (refer to figure 1.1).1.3.3 CarriersIn the wireless network of DCN Wireless, three non-overlapping wireless carriers are available (refer to figure 1.2).1.3.4 InterferenceThe wireless network of DCN Wireless can cause interference on wireless computer networks. You must make sure the DCN wireless carrier does not overlap the WLAN channel.1.3.5 ExampleRefer to figure 1.3. In the example, the WLAN channel is 3. WLAN channel 3 overlaps DCN wireless carriers 0 and 1. Therefore, use DCN wireless carrier 2.NoteYou can change the power value of the wireless access point (refer to section 11.6.4).NoteAlthough the system operates on frequencies which are license free world wide, you must be aware of country specific limitations and follow them.

Bosch Security Systems | 2007-02 | 9922 141 70691 enDCN Wireless | Installation and User Instructions | System Design and Planning en | 142DCN design2.1 IntroductionThe DCN Wireless has three parts: the wireless network, the DCN and the optical network. This chapter tells how to design the DCN.2.2 Calculation toolThe calculation tool makes the planning and design of the DCN easier. You can find the calculation tool on the CD-ROM that is supplied with your system.2.3 Concepts2.3.1 IntroductionThis section gives necessary data to understand the limitations in section 2.4.2.3.2 Trunk and tap-off socketsThe DCN uses two types of socket:•DCN trunk socketsUse the DCN trunk sockets to make a loop-through in the trunk of the DCN.•DCN tap-off socketsUse the DCN tap-off sockets to make more branches in the DCN. A DCN tap-off socket always regenerates the digital DCN signal.2.3.3 CablesMany devices used in the DCN have a 2 m cable. If necessary the extension cable (LBB4116) can extend the device cables.2.4 LimitsMake sure that these limits are not exceeded when you design the DCN:Limit 1: Control capacityThe maximum number of active devices that the central control unit can control is 95:• Max. 93x DCN-IDESK• Max. 2x DCN-DDI:• 1x with intercom handset• 1x with ambient microphoneThe number of passive devices is without limit (refer to section 2.5).Limit 2: Power capacity• The maximum power that one DCN socket of the central control unit can supply is 65 W. • The total power that the DCN sockets of the central control unit can supply is 130 W.• The maximum power that one DCN socket of the extension power supply can supply is 85 W • The total power that the DCN sockets of the extension power supply can supply is 255 W.Refer to section 2.6.Limit 3: Loop-throughsThe maximum number of loop-throughs in succession is 50. If there are more than 50 loop-throughs, the signal must be regenerated with a trunk splitter (LBB4114/00).Limit 4: Tap-off connectionsThe maximum number of tap-off connections in succession between the central control unit and the last tap-off in a branch is four. If there are more than four tap-off connections in succession, the system does not operate correctly.

Bosch Security Systems | 2007-02 | 9922 141 70691 enDCN Wireless | Installation and User Instructions | System Design and Planning en | 172.6.4 Overload indicationEach DCN socket of the central control unit and extension power supply has a red LED that comes on to show that there is a power overload. An overload occurs when:• The necessary power for the devices is greater than that is supplied.• A short-circuit occurs.When an overload occurs, the sockets are deactivated and the connected devices do not operate. The socket checks every 8 seconds (DCN-WCCU) or 30 seconds (DCN-EPS) for power overloads.2.6.5 Extension cablesExtension cables (LBB4116) have a direct effect on the available power. The longer an extension cable, the less power is available to drive the connected devices. You must chose the length of the extension cables carefully (refer to section 2.7.5).2.7 Cable lengths2.7.1 Maximum lengthThe cable length between the central control unit and the furthest device from the central control unit must not be more than 250 m. The cable length includes the device cable and extension cables.2.7.2 To first regenerative tap-offThe total cable length between the central control unit and the first regenerative tap-off socket must not be more than 100 m. This includes the device cables and extension cables.2.7.3 Between regenerative tap-offsThe total cable length between two regenerative tap-off sockets must not be more than 100 m. This includes the device cables and extension cables.2.7.4 Open-ended DCN cables‘Open-ended’ DCN cables are DCN cables of which the socket is not connected to a device in the DCN. ‘Open-ended’ cables can cause an incorrect operation of the system. You can ‘close’ the extension cable with a termination plug (refer to the DCN Next Generation Installation and User Instructions). When the ‘open-ended’ cable is connected to a termination plug, the system operates correctly.2.7.5 Power correction2.7.5.1 IntroductionThe necessary power from a DCN socket of the central control unit and the extension power supply is affected by:• The type and number of connected devices. • The lengths of the connected extension cables.The power correction graph (refer to figure 2.3) corrects the power level to compensate for the extension cables. 2.7.5.2 CalculationTo find the correction for each DCN socket of the central control unit and the extension power supply with the graph, you must first calculate:• The total power consumption of the devices that are connected to the socket. Refer to section 2.7.5.3.• The length of the longest extension cable sequence. Refer to section 2.7.5.4.
Bosch Security Systems | 2007-02 | 9922 141 70691 enDCN Wireless | Installation and User Instructions | System Design and Planning en | 182.7.5.3 Total power consumptionDo as follows:1 Find the power consumption of each device from the consumption table (refer to table 2.2).2 Add together the power used by all the devices. The result is the total power consumption of the devices that are connected to the socket.2.7.5.4 Length of the longest extension cable sequenceDo as follows:1 Add together the lengths of all extension cables in the longest sequence. For example, an extension cable of 20 m is connected directly to a DCN socket of the central control unit. To the extension cable, a trunk splitter is connected. To each tap-off socket of the trunk splitter, an extension cable is connected. One extension cable has a length of 10 m, the other extension cable has a length of 40 m. The length of the longest extension cable sequence is, in this example: 20 + 40 = 60 m.2.7.5.5 GraphThe power correction graph (refer to figure 2.3) corrects the power level to compensate for the extension cables. Do as follows:1 Find the total power consumption (refer to section 2.7.5.3) on the vertical axis (Y) of the power correction graph. For example, 40 W.2 Find the length of the longest extension cable sequence (refer to section 2.7.5.4) on the horizontal axis (X) of the power correction graph. For example, 60 m.3 The intersection of both values gives the necessary power from the socket. For example, 53 W.figure 2.3: Power correction graph60555045757080856540Y: Power (Watt)35302520151020 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180X: Extension cable (m)DCN-WCCU+ DCN-EPS200 220 240 250506111621273238434954606570768161218243036424854606672788461320263340465360667380715223037455260677582817253442516068778591827364655647383102030405060708011213243546576122436486072841326405366801530456075173451688518365573

This chapter tells how to design the optical network.3.2 Calculation toolThe calculation tool makes the planning and design of the optical network easier. You can find the calculation tool on the CD-ROM that is supplied with your system.3.3 LimitsMake sure that these limits are not exceeded when you make the optical network:Limit 1: Control capacityThe maximum number of nodes in the optical network is 63 (refer to section 3.4). Limit 2: Number of devicesThe maximum number of devices that you can connect to the optical network of the central control unit is 16. The maximum number of DCN-WAP Wireless Access Points in the optical network is 1.Limit 3: Power capacityThe maximum power that the optical network sockets of the central control unit can supply is 65 W (refer to section 3.5).Limit 4: CablesRefer to section 3.6:• The maximum length of a POF cable is 50 m.• The maximum cable length (POF and GOF) of the optical network is dependent on the number of nodes in the optical network.• The minimum bend radius of a 90 degree bend in a POF cable is 110 mm.• The minimum coiling radius of a POF cable is 110 mm.3.4 Control capacityEach device in the optical network has a number of nodes (refer to table 3.1). The maximum number of nodes in the optical network is 63.3.5 Power capacity3.5.1 IntroductionEach device uses power and most devices do not have an independent power supply.3.5.2 Power consumptionThe table shows the power each device in the optical network uses.table 3.1: NodesDevice NodesDCN-CCU 2DCN-WAP 1LBB4402/00 1LBB4404/00 1LBB4410/00 1LBB4414/10 0INT-TX04 1INT-TX08 2INT-TX16 4INT-TX32 8PRS-4DEX4 1table 3.2: Power consumptionDevice WattDCN-WAP 4LBB4402/00 7. 6LBB4404/00 10.5 LBB4410/00 3.9LBB4414/10 4.6PRS-4DEX4 6.0NoteThe Integrus transmitters do not use power from the system.
Bosch Security Systems | 2007-02 | 9922 141 70691 enDCN Wireless | Installation and User Instructions | System Design and Planning en | 233.5.3 Power supplyThe device that supplies power to the optical network is the central control unit, refer to figure 3.1. The power that the central control unit supplies includes the power that the DCN uses.If more power is necessary, you must install external power supplies in the optical network. The devices below can connect to external power supplies:• LBB4410/00 Network Splitter (refer to the DCN Next Generation Installation and User Instructions).• LBB4414/10 Fiber Interface (refer to the DCN Next Generation Installation and User Instruction).3.5.4 Overload indicationEach optical network socket of the central control unit has a red LED that comes on to show that there is a power overload. An overload occurs when the necessary power for the devices is greater than that supplied. The sockets are deactivated and the devices connected to the central control unit do not operate. The socket checks every 8 seconds for power overloads.3.6 Cabling3.6.1 IntroductionMany devices in the optical network have two optical network sockets that are interchangeable. You can use the two optical network sockets to make a redundant ring.3.6.2 DefinitionsThe optical network uses two types of cable:•POFPlastic Optical Fiber.•GOFGlass Optical Fiber.figure 3.1: Optical network power supplyOK FaultFaultRS 232Network12Audio In 1 Audio Out 1 Audio In 2 Audio Out 2MainsPort 2115:100-120V 50-60Hz T2.5A 250V230:220-240V 50-60Hz T2A H 250VRS 232 Port 1Trunk12230P<65WDCN-WCCUDCN-WCCUDCN-WCCUP<65WP<130WOK FaultFaultRS 232Network12Audio In 1 Audio Out 1 Audio In 2 Audio Out 2MainsPort 2115:100-120V 50-60Hz T2.5A 250V230:220-240V 50-60Hz T2A H 250VRS 232 Port 1Trunk12230OK FaultFaultRS 232Network12Audio In 1 Audio Out 1 Audio In 2 Audio Out 2MainsPort 2115:100-120V 50-60Hz T2.5A 250V230:220-240V 50-60Hz T2A H 250VRS 232 Port 1Trunk12230NoteIf only one of the optical network sockets has a power overload, the two overload LEDs come on.NoteThe two optical network connectors are the same.
Bosch Security Systems | 2007-02 | 9922 141 70691 enDCN Wireless | Installation and User Instructions | System Design and Planning en | 243.6.3 Optical fiber lengthBecause of optical attenuation, the maximum length of optical network cables (LBB4416) is 50 m. You can use GOF and fiber interfaces to increase the distance between devices to a maximum of 1500 m.3.6.4 Cable couplersYou can use the LBB4419/00 Cable Couplers to connect optical network cables to each other. A cable coupler causes optical attenuation. Each cable coupler decreases the maximum distance between two devices in the optical network (normally 50 meters) with 20 meters.3.6.5 Maximum cable lengthThe maximum cable length (LBB4416 and GOF) of the optical network is dependent on:• The number of nodes• The number of LBB4414/10 Fiber InterfacesDo as follows:1 Find the number of nodes of each device from the node value table (refer to table 3.1). Add together the nodes of all devices.2 With the value of step 1, use the graph (refer to figure 3.2) to find the maximum cable length without LBB4414/10 Fiber Interfaces.3 Count the number of LBB4414/10 Fiber Interfaces. Each fiber interface decreases the maximum cable length from step 2 with 18 m.NoteIf the distance between two devices is less than 100 m, use a network splitter between devices to remove the use of fiber interfaces. Use only the trunk sockets of the network splitter in this case.figure 3.2: Cable correction graph9505010152025Nodes30 35 40 45 50 55 60 63105011501250135014501550165017501850195020502150Max. cable length (m)

If the cable between the central control unit (DCN-WCCU) and the wireless access point (DCN-WAP) breaks, the central control unit cannot transmit data to the wireless access point. A solution for this problem is to use redundant cable (refer to figure 3.7 for an example).The example of the system without redundant cable (refer to figure 3.6) has no connection between the cobranet interface (LBB4404/00) and the central control unit (DCN-WCCU). The example of the system with redundant cable has a connection between the Cobranet Interface and the central control unit. This connection makes a ring. If a cable breaks, the optical network continues to operate. The maximum total power of all devices in the redundant optical network is 65 W. If the optical network is defective near the central control unit, the other socket can supply power to all of the optical network.figure 3.5: Basic optical networkfigure 3.6: Extended optical networkDCN-WCCUDCN-WAPDCN-WCCUDCN-WAPLBB4404/00INT-TXPRS-4DEX4figure 3.7: Redundant optical networkDCN-WCCUDCN-WAPLBB4404/00INT-TXPRS-4DEX4
