Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra is an enhanced wired siren for outdoor and indoor use. Equipped with an LED frame and a speaker that produces a sound volume of up to 107 dB.
Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra works as part of an Ajax system and exchanges data with a hub using Fibra wired technology. The communication range is up to 6,550 ft when the device is connected via twisted pair U/UTP cat.5. The siren has a built-in sealed battery that is charged from the Fibra line. Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra uses the battery to indicate and notify users of alarms and events.
If the Fibra line is damaged or an emergency power outage occurs, the backup battery will provide the siren with power to indicate and notify of alarms and events.
Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra is the device of the Fibra product line. Only accredited Ajax Systems partners can sell, install, and administer it.
Functional elements

Operating principle
Siren performs four tasks:
- Informs about alarms. The siren responds to system alarms and tamper triggering, enabling a speaker and an LED backlight to scare off intruders and attract attention.
- Indicates the security status. With an LED indication, the siren can notify that the site is armed. Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra informs users about delays when entering/leaving with a sound signal and backlight.
- Notifies of opening (Chime). When the site is disarmed, the siren informs you with a particular sound that the opening detectors are triggered. This feature is used, for example, in stores to notify employees that someone has entered the premises.
- Notifies of triggering until the site is disarmed. After the beep sounds, the LED indicator in the lower right corner of the siren starts flashing. With this feature, users and security company patrols passing by can see that the siren has been triggered.
Alarm volume and duration
After the alarm is activated, the siren sounds from 3 seconds to 3 minutes, emitting a sound volume of 85 to 107 dB. In Ajax apps, you can configure the alarm duration and volume, as well as determine which devices will trigger the siren.
Protection against sabotage
Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra is equipped with tamper buttons and raises the alarm when the main power (from the Fibra line) is lost. The tamper button is triggered when the siren enclosure is opened/broken, or somebody tries to remove the siren from SmartBracket.
In the event of sabotage, users and the security company know exactly which siren the intruders are trying to disable. The notifications contain the hub name (name of the guarded site), the incident time, the siren name, the alarm type, and the virtual room to which the siren is assigned.
Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra has a pre-installed battery. It provides the siren with the power to indicate and notify of alarms and events when the Fibra line is damaged or an emergency power outage occurs.
Fibra data transfer protocol
The siren uses Fibra technology to transmit alarms and events. This is a wired data transfer protocol that provides fast and reliable two-way communication between the hub and the connected devices. Using the bus connection method, Fibra delivers alarms and events instantly, even if 100 devices are connected to the system.
Fibra supports block encryption featuring a dynamic key and verifies each communication session with devices to prevent sabotage and spoofing. The protocol requires regular polling of devices by the hub with a predetermined frequency to monitor communication and display the status of the system devices in Ajax apps.
Sending events to the monitoring station
An Ajax system can transmit alarms to the PRO Desktop monitoring app, as well as to the central monitoring station (CMS) using SurGard (Contact ID), SIA (DC-09), ADEMCO 685, and other protocols.
Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra can transmit the following events:
- The lid is open/closed.
- The mounting panel is locked/unlocked.
- An alarm due to loss/recovery of the main power.
- Loss/recovery of connection between Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra and a hub.
- Turning the siren off/on.
- Discharging/charging the battery.
- Disconnecting/connecting the battery.
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. Addressability of Ajax devices allows you to transmit to PRO Desktop and to the CMS events, device type, its assigned name and location (room, group). The list of transmitted parameters may differ depending on the type of CMS and the selected communication protocol.
Device ID, loop (zone) number, as well as line number can be found in its states.
Selecting the installation site
When choosing where to install Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra, consider the parameters that affect the operation of the siren:
- Fibra signal strength.
- The length of the cable required to connect Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra.
- Audibility of the Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra sound signal.
- Visibility of the Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra LED indication.
Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra withstands heat, cold, and temperature fluctuations. The siren is protected from rain and snow and can be installed on the facade of the building without a canopy. The siren enclosure has the IP54 protection class.
The recommended installation height is 8.2 ft or more. This raises difficulties for intruders to gain access to the device in the event of a sabotage attempt. If the siren cannot be placed at this height, it can be installed lower.
Follow placement recommendations when designing an Ajax system for a site. The system should be designed and installed by professionals. The list of authorized Ajax Systems partners is available here.
Do not install the siren
- Near glass break detectors. The siren sound may trigger an alarm.
- In places where the audio signal of the siren can be jammed.
- In places where the LED indication of the siren will not be visible.
- In places with low or unstable Fibra signal strength.
Fibra signal strength
The Fibra signal strength is determined by the ratio of the number of undelivered or corrupted data packages to those expected over a certain period of time. The icon in the Devices tab in Ajax apps 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 in connecting wires to the terminals.
Designing
To correctly install and configure the devices, it is important to properly design the system. The design must take into account the number and types of devices at the site, their exact location and installation height, the length of Fibra wire lines, the type of cable used, and other parameters. Tips for designing wired Fibra systems are available in this article.
Topologies
Ajax systems support three topologies: Beam (Radial wiring), Tree, and Ring.
Beam connection method occupies one line output of the hub. In the event of a line break, only the segment that remains physically connected to the hub will function. All devices connected after the breakpoint will lose connection with the hub.
Ring connection method occupies two line outputs of the hub. If the ring breaks in one place, no device will be disabled. The ring reconfigures into two lines, which continue to operate normally. Users and security company will receive notification of a break.
Beam (Radial wiring) | Ring |
Occupies one line output of the hub. Up to 8 lines on the same hub. Up to 6,550 ft of wired communication for the same line. A termination resistor is installed at the end of the line. |
Occupies two line outputs of the hub. Up to 4 rings on the same hub. Up to 1,600 ft of wired communication for the same ring.No termination resistor is installed at the end of the line. |
Both device connection topologies can be used on the same hub. For example, you can use two Ring connections and four Beam topology connections.
Different types of devices can be connected to a single Fibra line. For example, you can connect opening detectors, motion detectors featuring photo verification, sirens, and keypads to the same line.
For the Beam (Radial wiringl) topology, be sure to install a 120 Ohm terminating resistor at the end of the line (included in the hub complete set). The terminating resistor is connected to the signal terminals of the last device on the line.
Line branching and the Tree topology are only allowed when using LineSplit Fibra.
Cable length and type
The maximum communication range for wired connection using the Beam (Radial wiringl) topology is 6,550 ft, and that using the Ring topology is 1,600 ft.
Recommended cable types:
- U/UTP cat.5 4 × 2 × 0.51, copper conductor.
- 4 × 0.22 signal cable, 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.
Verification using a calculator
To make sure that the project is calculated correctly and such a system will work in practice, we have developed Fibra power supply calculator. The calculator helps to check the quality of communication and cable length for wired Fibra devices with the selected configuration at the system design stage.
Preparing for installation
Cable arrangement
When preparing to lay cables, check the electrical and fire safety regulations in your region. Strictly follow these standards and regulations.
It is safest to route cables inside walls, floors, and ceilings; this way, they will be invisible and unavailable to intruders. It also ensures greater durability: the cable will be affected by fewer external factors that can impact the wear of the conductor and its insulating layer.
As a rule, system cables are laid at the construction or repair stage after the site has been wired.
If it is impossible to install cables inside the walls, route them so that the cable is sufficiently protected and hidden from prying eyes. For example, in a cable conduit or a protective corrugated pipe. It is recommended to hide them, e.g., behind the furniture.
Regardless of whether the cable is routed inside the wall or not, it is recommended to use protective pipes, cable conduits, or corrugated pipes to protect cables. The cables should be arranged carefully; no sagging, tangling, or twisting is allowed.
Consider the locations of possible signal interference. If the cable is routed near motors, generators, transformers, power lines, control relays, and other sources of electromagnetic interference, use twisted-pair cable in these areas.
Cable routing
When laying cables, take into account not only the general requirements and rules for electrical installation. Consider also installation height, method of fastening, how the cable is inserted into the enclosure, and other parameters of installation.
Before installing, read the Selecting the installation site section of this manual. Avoid deviations from the system project. Violation of the basic installation rules and the recommendations of this manual may lead to incorrect operation and loss of connection with Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra.
Check the cables for bends and physical damage before routing. Replace the damaged cables.
The signal cables for the system devices must be laid at a distance of at least 1.6 ft from the power cables when laid in parallel, and at the angle of 90° in case of their intersection.
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.
Preparing cables for connection
Remove the insulating layer of the cable and strip the cable with a special insulation stripper. The ends of the wires that will be inserted into the terminals of the device must be tinned or crimped with a sleeve. This ensures a reliable connection and protects the conductor from oxidation. Recommended cable lug sizes: 0.75 to 1 mm² (18 to 17 AWG).
Installation and connection
Connecting Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra to a hub
- Turn off line power in an Ajax PRO app. The function is available in the lines menu:
- Hub → Settings → Lines → Lines Power Supply.
- Plug the cable for the device connection into the hub casing. Connect the wires to the required hub line.
+24V —24 V⎓ power terminal.
A, B — signal terminals.
GND — ground. -
Remove the SmartBracket mounting panel from the device and cut out the perforated part to route cables from the bottom of the siren or through the wall. Optionally you can use drill to make 0.24 in holes on the top of SmartBracket.
- If the siren is not the last device in the line, prepare a second cable in advance. The ends of the wires of the first and second cables that will be inserted into the device terminals should be tinned and soldered together.
- Connect the wires to the terminals according to the figure below. Be sure to follow the polarity and connection order of the wires. Securely fasten the cable to the terminals. Secure the cable with ties.
+24V — power phase
А, B — signal terminals
GND — ground - If the siren is the last device in the line and the Beam connection topology is used, install a terminating resistor by connecting it to the signal terminals of the device. When Ring connection is used, a terminating resistor is not needed.
-
Temporarily attach the SmartBracket panel to a vertical surface. This is necessary to run the device tests. The recommended installation height is 6.5 feet or more.
- Install the device on the SmartBracket mounting panel.
- Turn on lines power in an Ajax PRO app (Hub → Settings → Lines → Lines Power Supply). When power is applied, the LED lighting will notify you that the device is turned on.
- Add Superior StreetSiren Plus Fibra to the hub.
- Run the Fibra signal strength test. The recommended signal strength is two or three bars. If the signal strength is one or zero bars, check the connection correctness and the cable integrity.
- Run the Volume test. If the siren is hard to hear, change the volume or move the device.
- If the siren passes the tests, fix the SmartBracket mounting panel with bundled screws using all fixing points (one of them is in the perforated part of the mount above the tamper).
Do not use double-sided adhesive tape to fix the siren, as the device can unstick from the surface at any time.
- Slide the device onto the SmartBracket mounting panel and lock it. This reduces the risk of device burglary or sabotage.
