The EVOLVE-NET-MM is a dual-fiber multimode SFP network controller for Kidde EVOLVE Series fire alarm panels, running 100Base-FX at 1310nm for building-to-building networking where multimode fiber is already in place or preferred over single-mode.
Built for the commercial fire installer
EVOLVE panels support peer-to-peer networking over mixed media Ć¢ā¬ā Ethernet, twisted-pair copper, or fiber Ć¢ā¬ā and the SFP form factor means the network controller is a field-swappable module rather than a fixed onboard interface. Multimode fiber is the common choice on jobs with shorter building-to-building runs or where existing multimode infrastructure is already pulled, since it avoids the cost premium of single-mode transceivers.
Key features
- Dual-fiber multimode, 100Base-FX at 1310nm
