HWF2A-COM - Honeywell Commercial Fire Dual-Path Ethernet/Cellular AT&T LTE Alarm Communicator (for Universal Contact ID Control Panels)
Honeywell HWF2A-COM Product Description:
The Honeywell HWF2A-COM is a commercial fire, single, or dual-path LTE/IP alarm communicator that offers Contact ID reporting to any FACP (fire alarm control panel) with a built-in dialer. The HWF2A-COM connects directly to the primary or secondary communication ports of a fire panel's digital alarm communicator transmitter (DACT). It also connects to any customer provided Ethernet 10/100 base network connection (LAN or WAN), DSL or cable modem. The HWF2A-COM sends single or dual-path alarm signals over internet IP and the cellular AT&T LTE towers to the GeoArm central monitoring station.
Three selectable reporting paths include: LTE cellular only, IP only, or IP primary with LTE cellular backup while providing appropriate supervision intervals based on NFPA 72 requirements. All signals from the HWF2A-COM communicator are delivered to the AlarmNet® network control center which routes highly encrypted, cybersecured Ethernet data packets via a customer-provided Internet connection or AT&T LTE cellular network to the GeoArm central station. The AlarmNet® network control center is fully redundant and monitored 24/7.
Installation and programming are easy through the AlarmNet 360® website, using the handheld 7720P Programming tool, or using the control panel's programming mode (for panels that support this option).

Temperature and Humidity Ranges
This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0-49°C/32-120°F and at a relative humidity 93%± 2% RH (non-condensing at 32°C ± 2°C(90°F ±3°F). However, the useful life of the system's standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with a normal room temperature of 15-27°C/60-80°F.
