Wireless range extender
This wireless repeater, or range extender, extends the communication range of the Abbra system by relaying data between the main control panel receiver and remote wireless transmitters. Up to 16 auxiliary repeaters can be positioned between the farthest group of receivers transmitters and the receiver. Each repeater extends the range of the Abbra by an additional 600 feet. For maximum security, the repeater uses a unique, factory programmed, randomly selected 24-bit digital alarm ID code during each transmission. This code is selected from 16 million possible code combinations and is therefore unique and virtually impossible to accidentally reproduce. Other important benefits of the repeater include the unique anti-collision transmission sequence, which ensures accurate reception of simultaneous signals from multiple transmitters. The fully supervised repeater issues a test report on an hourly basis, indicating faults such as power failure, low battery charge and tampering. Powered by 13-20 VDC or 11-16 VDC power supply, the repeater uses a 9-Volt nickel cadmium rechargeable battery as a backup in case of power failure. Note: This part will extend the range of the Abbra Wireless Alarm System. It is not compatible with NextView IP cameras. To extend the range of your cameras, we recommend a wireless network range extender, available at most computer or electronics retailers.
