Security network interface for alarm systems

Authors suggested the development of a specialized network interface for network of detectors that are part of alarm system. Providing a high level of network security against intruder is achieved using a large number of security elements and their dynamic change in on-line mode network operation. The proposed system uses traditional detectors; each is connected to the network through node based on a microcontroller. This allows connection of traditional detectors into two-wired network with common bus type and to reduce the number of wired lines without loss of system informative channels. An additional advantage is in powering sensors by a server via informational network channel.

► Proposed a specialized interface for alarm system detectors network. ► It provides high level of network security using a large number of elements. ► The elements can dynamical change in on-line mode. ► It has low cost design and significantly reduces the amount of network cabling.
