In addition to these important characteristics, a new set of innovative services has been introduced to improve cost efficiency, service capabilities and system operation.

The cabinet has room for installation of totally 20 circuit boards, one AMC-IP processor board, one APC program & clock board and up to 18 feature boards. The exchange also includes a mains power supply and a cooling fan.

Several exchanges can be interconnected on AlphaNet over IP, as well as the traditional methods, both locally and worldwide. All communication and services are available throughout the entire network.

The AlphaCom E-series includes extended integration of different kinds of communication and alarm systems, access control, CCTV, public address, public telephones and a variety of features and solutions that can be added when desired. It is easy to interface to 3rd party systems to create special applications.

The new technology allows remote programming, logging and maintenance via AlphaPro, Syslog and standard web browsers.

Installation

The cabinet is intended for mounting in a 19” rack. It has room for installation of totally 20 circuit boards, one AMC-IP processor board, one APC program & clock board and up to 18 feature boards. The exchange also includes a mains power supply.

• Up to 4 units may be mounted in one 19” rack if sufficient ventilation is provided. It is recommended to mount a 24 VDC cooling fan module on top of each exchange unit.
• The two-pair star wired intercom cables are connected to connection boards on the cabinet DIN rail or in a separate distribution field.
• Each subscriber line card provides 6 freely programmable Remote Control Outputs (RCO’s).
• Two RJ45 Ethernet terminals on the IP filter board are used for IP LAN and WAN communication.
• The serial ports with RS232 and RS422/485 interface are used for interface to equipment using these protocols.
• 6 program distribution sources can be connected to the APC board via an optional program connection board. Up to 32 extra programs may be added using AGA boards, 16 programs per board.
• The optional program connection board has input for 6 Remote Control Inputs (RCI) which can initiate programmed actions.
• The exchange is powered from the mains. The power supply APWR runs on 90-270 VAC.

The built-in power supply serves approximately 80 standard stations when all stations are activated (All Call or Alarm Call). If All- or Alarm Call is not to be activated, the exchange may be fully equipped with 102 stations.
