Clear-com HLI-FBS Fiber Interface Module
Clear-com HelixNet HLI-FBS fiber linking
interface is a dual port Ethernet switch interface module with 100MB SFP
connectors for the HMS-4X** main station. The HLI-FBS 100MB SFP connectors
can be populated with compatible single or multi-mode fiber transceivers.
Networking
HLI-FBS allows access to HelixNet’s internal
network for direct fiber connected HMS-4X** linking. LQ® Series linking and
user station network connection, system control and monitoring from the
browser-based Core Configuration Manager™ (CCM*) can be established with the
use of third-party 100MB network peripherals. HLI-FBS can be added to any
HMS-4X** main station with an available option slot.
*CCM requires
HLI-ET2
**HMS-4X is a legacy product as of 2022
