CEN-IO-COM-102 Wired Ethernet Module with 2 COM Ports

The Crestron® CEN-IO-COM-102 is a compact and cost-effective wired I/O module designed to easily expand the available RS-232 ports within a commercial or residential system. A small form factor allows the CEN-IO-COM-102 to be placed just about anywhere, with the option to attach it to a flat surface or DIN rail using the included mounting bracket. The two onboard, bidirectional RS-232 COM ports enable direct integration with all kinds of third-party equipment.

The CEN-IO-COM-102 communicates to the local network using the available LAN connection, allowing the connected equipment to be remotely controlled and monitored from a computer or tablet. Power is conveniently supplied to the CEN-IO-COM-102 via PoE (Power over Ethernet) or a Crestron control system, eliminating the need for a local power supply or extra wiring.

Security Protocols:
The CEN-IO-COM-102 supports the following security protocols to help protect against service interruptions and malicious intrusions:

TLS 1.2 for web server and control system connections
Local Authentication for console, web server, and control system connections
SSL for console connections
Power over Ethernet
Using PoE technology, the CEN-IO-COM-102 gets its operating power directly through the LAN wiring. PoE eliminates the need for a local power supply or any dedicated power wiring. A PoE injector (PWE-4803RU) simply connects in line with the LAN cable at any convenient location. Crestron PoE switches (CEN-SW-POE-5 or CEN-SWPOE-16) may also be used to provide a total networking solution with built-in PoE. All PoE injectors and switches are sold separately.

Integrator Friendly Enclosure
The CEN-IO-COM-102 features the Crestron IFE form factor, a compact "Integrator Friendly Enclosure" design that fits almost anywhere and enables a variety of installation options. Its shape allows multiple CEN-IO and other IFE compliant devices to be stacked together. Using the included mounting bracket, it can be fastened to any flat surface or snapped onto a standard DIN rail. Rack mount and pole mount kits are also available.[1]
