Product overview

Product Description
The C2N-MNETGW is a 2-way RF gateway/transceiver designed to enable communications and management for a compete infiNET wireless network of dimmers, thermostats, and other devices. The C2N-MNETGW links the infiNET network to the Cresnet wired network to enable communications with a 2-Series control system.

infiNET™
Crestron's groundbreaking infiNET wireless technology provides reliable 2-way communications throughout a home or office structure without the need for physical control wiring. Employing a 2.4 GHz mesh network topology, every infiNET device functions as an RF repeater, increasing effective range and reinforcing the complete network by providing multiple redundant signal paths within the mesh network. Adding more infiNET devices or repeaters to the network effectively increases the range, strength, and reliability of the network.

Up to 30 infiNET dimmers, switches, and other devices can be linked to a control system via a single C2N-MNETGW gateway. Additional gateways may be installed to support additional devices, with up to 16 gateways possible in a complete system (RF conditions allowing).

Easy Setup
Setting up a complete infiNET network is simple, utilizing dynamic discovery to locate and acquire each RF device automatically. Every device assigned to a common gateway automatically behaves as a repeater for any other devices within range (approximately 150 feet indoors), and additional repeaters may be added if necessary. At all times, the C2N-MNETGW monitors each device on the network, ignoring any other 2.4 GHz signals, and reconfiguring the entire network automatically in response to new sources of interference and other changes in RF conditions.
