Kramer 10-Port Serial, IR, GPI/O, and Relay PoE Control Gateway

The FC-28 is a PoE-powered control gateway, capable of plug and play deployment over customer Ethernet LAN for remote control of customer controlled devices via bidirectional RS-232, IR, GPI/O and relay control connections. Multiple control clients can be IP-connected to the FC-28 control gateway for concurrent control of two RS-232, four IR controllable devices, such as AV scalers, video displays, audio amplifiers, DVD players, sensors, screens, shades, door locks, and lighting.

Key Features
2 RS-232 bi-directional control ports – control a device via bi-directional serial control protocols
4 IR emitter control ports – control a device via IR control protocols
2 GPI/O control ports – controls a device via general purpose I/O ports, program-configured as digital input, digital output or analog input interface for controlling sensors, door-locks, audio volume and light dim level, or lighting control devices
2 relay control ports – control a device via relay contact closure, such as scrolling up and down screens, drapes, shades, and blinds
Simultaneous IP control communication – with up to 40 IP control clients
IR sensor port – learns commands from IR remotes
Mini USB port – for firmware upgrades and local technical services
1 ethernet control port – remote protocol-based control port
Built-in web pages – remote browser-based control and support
Easy installation – single Ethernet cable wires for communication and PoE powering, and Plug & Play IP auto-setup deployment for simple and cost-reducing installation
