Quick Guide for Enabling IP Devices in Elevators

ContentProvidedBy-NVTNVT Phybridge 1701+ extender solutions can grow modularly from 1 to 4. Therefore, if the number exceeds four units, it must be treated as a new solution with the difference in remaining equipment. Below are four scenarios for transmitting IP signals through traveling cables in vertical transport. The solutions below provide the ability to connect IP signals from the elevator cabin to the machine room. Before starting a project, the following questions must be answered to identify and support the best solution:

  1. What is the distance of the traveling cable?
  2. What is the potential power consumption of the IP devices in the elevator cabin (this is to determine if power can be delivered from the switch in the machine room or if the device(s) must be locally powered)?
  3. What types of cables are available within the traveling cable?
  4. What is the total number of devices to be placed in each cabin?
  5. What is the total number of elevators communicating with the machine room?
  6. Are you connecting to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch in the machine room?

Once these six questions are answered, the design phase is very simple. Four applications can be used, and the cable type must be known. These four applications can be connected in Star or Bus configuration.
