Does the device have internet access? It appears it cannot access the server hosting the node. If it has internet access check that if you put that https: address into a browser that it is able to fetch the contents ok.

Is the browser there running on the node-red server or on a browser on a PC connected to the device running node-red?

So that doesn't answer the question as to whether the device running node-red is able to access that url. What device is node-red running on and what OS?

So can you access the internet from that device? If you can ssh into it then run  
`ping registry.npmjs.org`  
and check it gets responses.
