The Kidde MMXVR is a standard-output multi-mode fiber optic transceiver that plugs directly into Kidde fiber module boards, giving networked FX Series fire alarm panels a reliable fiber communication path without dedicated networking hardware at each end. Drop it into a 3-FIBMB2, 3-FIBMB, or NOCF board and the panel is on the fiber loop.
Built for the commercial installer
Multi-mode fiber runs handle the medium-distance backbone between fire alarm panels in campus, high-rise, and multi-building layouts where copper isn't practical. The MMXVR handles the optical conversion on the panel side, plugging into the same fiber module boards used across the Kidde intelligent fire alarm ecosystem. ST connectors match the industry-standard termination found on most fire alarm fiber infrastructure.
Key features
- Plug-in module: seats directly into 3-FIBMB2, 3-FIBMB, or NOCF fiber module boards with no additional wiring
- Multi-mode fiber: suited for medium-distance panel-to-panel communication in campus and high-rise layouts
- ST connectors: industry-standard straight-tip termination, compatible with most existing fire alarm fiber infrastructure
- Standard output: covers typical multi-mode distances for fire alarm network backbones
- Hot-swappable form factor: minimizes downtime during maintenance or replacement
System requirements
Requires a Kidde fiber module board (3-FIBMB2, 3-FIBMB, or NOCF) installed in a compatible Kidde FX Series intelligent fire alarm panel. Multi-mode fiber optic cabling with ST terminations required between panel locations.
