MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) is an integration module board designed to connect third-party wired devices to an Ajax system. The board can be installed into Case D (430). It features 18 zones for connecting NC, NO, EOL, 2EOL, and 3EOL devices. The integration module is available in two versions: either in default casing or as a board without casing. The former is called MultiTransmitter Fibra.
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) has a connector for attaching the tamper board to the module when installed into Case to protect it from dismantling. It is equipped with two tampers on the front and rear sides of the board, though they are not currently used in this version of the integration module. The device is powered from the 100–240 V~ mains, and can also be powered from the 12 V⎓ backup battery. It can supply 10.5–15 V⎓ power to connected devices.
Check the device compatibility before adding to the system. Compatible hubs with firmware version OS Malevich 2.26 and later are required for MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) to operate.
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) works as part of an Ajax system, exchanging data with the hub using the secure Fibra wired protocol. The wired connection range is up to 2,000 meters when using a U/UTP cat.5 twisted pair.
This is a device of the Superior product line. Only accredited Ajax Systems partners can sell, install, and administer Superior products.

Operating principle
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) is designed to integrate third-party wired devices into an Ajax system. The integration module receives information about alarms, malfunctions, and events from devices through a wired connection. After that, it sends the event to Hub Hybrid using the Fibra data transfer wired protocol. And Hub Hybrid sends messages to users and the security company CMS (central monitoring station).
The wired device connected to MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) can operate in one of the following sensor modes:
- Detect alarms
- Switch arming modes
- Control of blocking element
- Control of bolt lock
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) is used to integrate alarm and auxiliary request alert buttons, indoor and outdoor motion detectors. As well as detectors that track opening, vibration, glass breaking, fire, gas and water leakage, etc.
Also, you can set up KeyArm Zone that allows switching system arming modes with a third-party device connected to MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing). KeyArm allows you to arm/disarm the system, individual groups, or manage Night Mode.
The KeyArm feature is supported by all hubs (except Hub model) with OS Malevich 2.17 and later.
The device type is specified in the settings of the zone to which the wired detector or device is connected. The selected type determines the text of alarm messages and events of the connected device, as well as event codes transmitted to the CMS.
Sensor modes Control of blocking element and Control of bolt lock is used to integrate third party blocking elements and bolt switch contacts to the Ajax system according to the inevitability principle (German: Zwangsläufigkeit).

Wired devices connection types
- NO (normally open).
- NC (normally closed).
- EOL (connection with one resistor).
- 2EOL (connection with two resistors).
- 3EOL (connection with three resistors).
In the Ajax app, you can select the normal state (normally open or normally closed) for each of the terminal pairs: alarm, tamper, and malfunction terminals. This allows connecting any potential-free (“dry”) contact detector of any configuration to MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing).
Fibra communication protocol
The integration module uses Fibra technology to transmit alarms and events. This is a two-way wired data transfer protocol that provides fast and reliable communication between the hub and integration module. Using the bus connection method, Fibra delivers alarms and events instantly, even if 100 devices are connected to the system.
Fibra supports block encryption with dynamic key and verifies each communication session with devices to prevent sabotage and spoofing. The protocol provides for regular polling of devices by the hub at a specified frequency to control communication and display the state of system devices in Ajax apps.
Sending events to the Central Monitoring Station (CMS)
An Ajax system can transmit alarms to the PRO Desktop monitoring app as well as the Central Monitoring Station (CMS) using SurGard (Contact ID), SIA DC-09 (ADM-CID), ADEMCO 685, and other proprietary protocols.
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) can transmit the following events:
- Integration module tamper alarm/restoration.
- Connected devices alarm/restoration.
- Loss/recovery of communication between the integration module and hub.
- Disabling/enabling MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing).
- Disabling/enabling wired detectors and devices connected to the integration module.
- Unsuccessful attempt to arm the system (if system integrity check is enabled).
When an alarm is received, the monitoring station operator of the security company knows what happened and where the rapid response unit has to be sent. All Ajax devices are addressable, so events, the device type, its assigned name and room can be transmitted to PRO Desktop and the CMS. The list of transmitted parameters may differ depending on the type of the CMS and the selected communication protocol.
The ID and number of the loop (zone) of the integration module and connected devices can be found in their States in Ajax apps. To check the loop (zone) number, open the States of the integration module or the connected wired device. The device number corresponds to the loop (zone) number.
Device placement
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) must be installed into Case D (430). The integration module is designed for indoor installation only. It is advisable to choose an installation site where the integration module is hidden from prying eyes — for example, in the storage room. This helps to reduce the risk of sabotage of the integration module and devices connected to it.
Install Case with the integration module on a vertical surface. This will ensure proper tamper response if someone attempts to detach Case. Learn the battery documentation before installing — some batteries can be mounted only vertically (with terminals upward). Another installation position could cause fast battery degradation.
When choosing a location for the integration module, consider the parameters that affect its operation:
- Fibra signal strength.
- Cable length for connecting MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing).
- Cable length for connecting wired devices to the integration module.
Follow these recommendations when designing the system project for a facility. Only professionals should design and install the Ajax system. The list of authorized Ajax partners is available here.
Installing into Case
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) must be installed into Case D (430), which is sold separately. The board could be installed alongside other devices in Case D (430). Use Case configurator to determine the most optimal placement of your Fibra devices in the casing.
Case features mounts for the modules, wire channels, and a tamper that connects to the MultiTransmitter board.
Do not install MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing)
- Outdoors, as it can lead to the integration module failure.
- Inside premises where temperature and humidity levels exceed the permissible limits, as this can damage the integration module.
- In places with low or unstable Fibra signal strength, since this might cause a loss of connection with the hub.
Fibra signal strength
The Fibra signal strength is determined by the number of undelivered or corrupted data packages over a certain period of time. The icon 
in the Devices 
tab indicates the signal strength:
- Three bars: excellent signal strength.
- Two bars: good signal strength.
- One bar: low signal strength, stable operation is not guaranteed.
- Crossed out icon: no signal, stable operation is not guaranteed.
The following factors affect the signal strength:
- The number of devices connected to one Fibra line.
- Cable length and type.
- The correctness of the wire connections to the terminals.
Designing
It is crucial to design the system project properly to ensure the correct installation and configuration of the devices. The design must consider the number and types of devices at the facility, their exact locations and installation heights, the length of wired Fibra lines and cables from other devices, the type of cable used, and other parameters. Refer to the article to learn tips for designing the Fibra system project.
Topologies
Fibra is a data transfer protocol for the Ajax wired devices. At the physical level, Fibra resembles a bus connection: the detectors are connected to the control panel using a four-core cable. Currently, Ajax systems support three topologies — Beam (Radial wiring), Ring, and Tree. Learn more about topologies in this article.
Cable length and type
For MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing)
The maximum range of a wired connection using the Beam (Radial wiring) topology is 2,000 meters, and using the Ring topology — 500 meters.
Recommended cable types:
- U/UTP cat.5, 4 × 2 × 0.51 mm (24 AWG), copper conductor.
- Signal cable 4 × 0.22 mm², copper conductor.
If you use a different type of cable, the communication range for wired connections may vary. No other types of cables have been tested.
For wired devices of third-party manufacturers
The maximum cable length for connecting third-party devices to MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) is 400 meters.
Recommended cable types:
- Signal cable 4 × 0.22 mm², copper conductor.
- Signal cable 4 × 0.22 mm², conductor material is aluminum covered with copper.
If you use a different type of cable, the communication range for wired connections may vary. No other types of cables have been tested.
Verification using a calculator
To ensure that the project is designed correctly and the system functions as intended in practice, we have developed a Fibra power supply calculator. It helps to check the communication quality and cable length for wired Fibra devices when designing the system project.
Additional information
The maximum current that Hub Hybrid can supply in total for all Fibra lines is 600 mA. Please note that the total current consumption of the devices in the system depends on the type of cable, its length, the type of connected device, the quality of the connection of conductors, and other factors. Therefore, after selecting devices, we recommend verifying the project using the Fibra power supply calculator.
Up to 100 devices can be connected to Hub Hybrid at default settings. Each device connected to MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) also occupies one slot within the device limit of the hub.
MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) supports EOL resistors with resistance from 1 to 15 kOhm. The total resistance of all resistors is up to 30 kOhm. To increase anti-sabotage protection, use EOL resistors with different resistances in one detector. The recommended resistance ratio of EOL resistors: R1＝R, R2＝2·R, R3＝3·R.
The integration module has four 10.5-15 V⎓ power supply lines: one for the fire detectors and three — for other devices.
After an alarm, fire detectors require a power reset to restore the normal operation mode. Therefore, the fire detectors power supply should only be connected to a dedicated line. Also, avoid connecting other detectors and devices to power terminals of fire detectors as this may lead to false alarms or incorrect operation of the devices.
Preparing for installation
Cable arrangement
Before laying cables, check the electrical and fire safety regulations applicable in your region. Strictly follow these standards and regulations. Tips for cable arrangement are available in this article.
Cable routing
Before beginning the installation, we strongly advise reviewing the Device placement section thoroughly. Stick to the outlined system project without deviation. Violation of the basic MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing) installation rules and the recommendations of this manual may lead to incorrect operation, as well as loss of connection with the device.
Signal cables of Fibra devices must be laid at a distance of at least 50 cm from the power cables when lying parallel, and, if they intersect, it must be at a 90° angle. Observe the permissible bend radius of the cable. It is specified by the manufacturer in the cable specifications. Otherwise, you risk damaging or breaking the conductor. Tips for cable routing are available in this article.
Preparing cables for connection
First, remove the insulation layer and strip the cable with a special insulation stripper. The ends of the wires inserted into the device terminals must be tinned or crimped with a sleeve. It ensures a reliable connection and protects the conductor from oxidation. Tips for preparing the cables are available in this article.
Features of enclosures of third-party wired devices may exclude the use of insulated ferrules. To connect such devices, you can use a wire-end ferrule without insulation with a cross-section of 0.5 mm² or more.
Installation
Before installing MultiTransmitter Fibra (without casing), make sure that you have selected the optimal location and that it meets the requirements of this manual. To reduce the risk of sabotage, the cables must be hidden from view and located in a difficult place for intruders to access. Ideally, the cables should be mounted in walls, floors, or ceilings. Run the Fibra signal strength test before final installation.
When connecting to the terminals of the device, do not twist the wires together, but solder them. The ends of the wires that will be inserted into the terminals should be tinned or crimped with a special sleeve. This will ensure a reliable connection. Observe the safety procedures and the rules for electrical installation work when connecting the integration module and third-party devices.
