2. IP/Ethernet network design
StruxureWare Building Expert (in web browser)
Allows to configure and monitor your deployment.
Stand-alone deployment, everything goes through the monitor
LAN
Monitor
(A monitor is needed if more then 1 MPM in the network and if a network functionality is required)

BACnet points collected by the monitor
Passive nodes
Cost effective solution for small-to-medium buildings

3. IP/Ethernet network design (cont’d)
Schneider Electric or third-party BACnet Building Management System (BMS)
Integration to BACnet system
No need for a monitor if all nodes are connected through IP

8. CANbus network design
120 Ohms resistors must be placed at both termination points of the CANbus chain link.
CANbus transfer rate is proportional to total chain-link length.
125 Kbps: Up to 500 m
250 kbps: Up to 250 m (default setting)
500 kbps: Up to 100 m
Must be the same speed configuration for all MPMs

9. ZigBee concepts
ZigBee coordinator is a device that sets up the network, is aware of all the nodes within its network. Every ZigBee network must contain a network coordinator.
ZigBee router can act as an intermediate router, passing on data from other devices.
