The FC-26 is a PoE-powered control gateway, capable of plug and play deployment over a customer Ethernet LAN for remote control of customer controlled devices via bidirectional RS-232 and IR control connections. Multiple control clients can be IP-connected to the FC-26 control gateway for concurrent control of two RS-232 and four IR controllable devices, such as AV scalers, video displays, audio amplifiers, and DVD players. 2 RS-232 Bidirectional Control Ports - Control a device via bidirectional serial control protocols. 4 IR Emitter Control Ports - Control a device via IR control protocols. 1 Ethernet Control Port - Remote protocol-based control port. Built-in Web Pages - Remote browser-based control and support. 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. PoE Support - Per IEEE 802.3af standard. Easy Installation - Single Ethernet cable wires for communication and PoE powering, and plug & play IP auto-setup deployment for simple and cost-reducing installation.
