CAST Addressable System

Cost-effective addressable fire detection using standard fire cable

Overview

The CAST (Conventional Addressable System Technology) system provides the benefits of addressable fire detection at a fraction of the cost. Using standard fire-resistant cable instead of specialist data cables, CAST is ideal for retrofit installations and budget-conscious projects. Each detector has a unique address, enabling precise location identification while simplifying installation and reducing material costs.
