Universal Wireless Gateway - ER, SG, and infiNET EX® Wireless Networks, International Version
Universal Wireless Gateway - ER, SG, and infiNET EX® Wireless Networks, International Version
Note: Compatible with 3-Series® control systems or newer.
The CENI-GW1 is a universal wireless gateway that communicates with Crestron® SG (Sub GHz), ER (Extended Range), and infiNET EX® wireless devices. A single CENI-GW1 creates SG, ER, and infiNET EX® wireless networks to facilitate 2-way communication between a Crestron® control system and a network of Crestron wireless remotes, keypads, lighting dimmers, motorized shades, thermostats, door locks, and other wireless devices.
Note: Compatible with 3-Series® control systems or newer.
Universal Wireless Gateway
The universal wireless gateway features 2‑way wireless communication between the gateway and wireless devices. The CENI-GW1 can manage SG wireless, infiNET EX® wireless, and ER (Extended Range RF) devices simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate gateways.1
Easy Setup
The CENI-GW1 makes it easy to set up a network of wireless devices by eliminating the need for separate gateways, antennas, and LAN connections. Additionally, Crestron wireless devices are discovered and acquired in one simple step.
Power over Ethernet for Simple Installation
Using PoE technology, a single cable run is used for both power and data for the CENI-GW1.
Power an entire network of Crestron PoE devices using a Crestron PoE switch (CEN‑SW‑POE‑5 or CEN‑SWPOE‑16) or a single device using a PoE Injector (PWE‑4803RU). All PoE injectors and switches are sold separately.
As an alternative to PoE, use a 24VDC power pack (PW‑2407WU, sold separately) to power the CENI-GW1.
Integrator Friendly Enclosure
Mount the CENI-GW1 almost anywhere using the Integrator Friendly Enclosure (IFE). The IFE can be mounted to any flat surface, snapped onto a standard DIN rail, or stacked on other IFE compliant devices. Rack mount and pole mount kits are also available.
Key Features
