Comtrol RocketLinx ACS7106 PoE Switch for Access Control

The new RocketLinx ACS7106 offers access control integrators and systems builders the full benefits of a PoE Plus Ethernet switch for connecting card readers, electric strikes/locks, keypads and camera equipment. The RocketLinx ACS7106 is easily installed in outdoor or indoor industrial settings (extended operating temperature from -40° to 55°C) and is ideally suited for access control integration with four 10/100BASE-TX PoE Plus ports for providing power and data to remote PDs (powered devices) and two 10/100/1000BASE-TX Gigabit uplink ports, assuring maximum throughput for high-bandwidth applications. Easy plug-and-play installation eliminates costs and cabling complexity typical with rack mounted or individual PoE midspans.

With voltage boost technology that allows direct 12-24VDC input power for easy integration with alarm, security and access control power systems, the ACS7106 also features a compact, rugged aluminum housing and small form factor for panel and cabinet deployment, 100W PoE total power budget for driving high power devices, and a relay alarm supporting 24VDC at 1A for notification of Ethernet link and PoE power events. PoE Plus (802.3at support) ensures the most power-intensive devices such as IP cameras with heaters and PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom) controls are supported.
