Description
Hardwired Gateway Expander, extends the range of a Version 2 Gateway and helps interface up to 63 Networx locks with PC network with hardwired Ethernet RJ45
The ALL-IME2-EXP is a Gateway Expander device used within the Trilogy Networx wireless system. The Trilogy Networx Expander extends the coverage area of a Generation 2 Series AL-IME2 Gateway to Trilogy Networx Locks within a PC network, allowing greater distances for the placement of up to a maximum rated capacity of 63 Networx locks per Version 2 Gateway.
Used in place of additional Gateways, each AL-IME2-EXP Expander can extend the Gen.2 Gateway’s coverage area by approximately 100 feet. (See range specs, at right.) Typically introduced into the network when a Gateway does not provide sufficient signal strength to a particular area, it is designed to extend coverage and thus facilitate communications with a wireless lock or a group of wireless locks. The AL-IME2-EXP Expander must be used with a Generation 2 AL-IME2 Series Gateway, but can be intermixed in an existing system that includes older œnon-version 2� Gateways. However, at least one Version 2 Gateway must be powered and online before an AL-IME2-EXP Expander will function within the network.
AL-IME2-EXP Expanders are more cost-effective and easier to wire than conventional gateways. They also provide a simplified ˜Plug and Play’ setup, where the Networx system automatically identifies all newly powered Expanders and quickly self-determines the best wireless signal pathways. Up to 7 Expanders can be added to support one Generation 2 Series Gateway. Each Gen. 2 Gateway and a maximum of seven (7) Expanders can be addressed as one group. There are a total of 99 addressable groups supported (addressable by two rotary switches)
Note: Version 2 Gateway Expanders CAN be mixed into an existing system that includes older œnon-version 2� gateways as long as one
Version 2 Gateway is connected to the system.
