 ES Net network application
The ES Network (ES Net) is a high bandwidth (100 Mbps) IP based fire alarm network that supports high speed fire alarm
control unit software downloads and uploads and execution of service level computer port commands over the fire alarm
network from any panel location, without the need for a Building Network Interface Card (BNIC). In most cases, the need to
connect to the building network with the Building Network Interface Card is no longer required on ES Network systems.
Contact your local Simplex product supplier for additional information on ES Network products and applications.
