DSC TL-150 — residential Ethernet/IP alarm communicator for PowerSeries control panels.
This is a security and intrusion product, not a fire-alarm device. The TL150 connects to the KEYBUS of a DSC PowerSeries panel and carries alarm traffic across an existing LAN to a Sur-Gard receiver, letting a subscriber drop the dedicated phone line. Because the path is always on, signals arrive almost immediately rather than the 20–30 seconds a dialer needs, and the panel supervises both the KEYBUS and the network connection.
- Input voltage: 12 VDC from the panel KEYBUS
- Current draw: 65 mA
- 128-bit AES encryption; 10/100BaseT with DHCP support
- Panels: PC1616, PC1832, PC1864, PC580/585, PC1555MX/1565, PC5010, PC5020
- Receivers: Sur-Gard System II, and System III with SG-DRL3-IP line card
Listings quoting 120 VDC for this unit are wrong; DSC specifies 12 VDC off the KEYBUS. Check your panel against the list above — this module serves PowerSeries security panels and will not work on a fire alarm control panel.
