The CEN-GWEXER is a 2-way RF wireless transceiver designed for use
with Crestron
®
infiNET EX
®
and “ER” (Extended Range RF) wireless
devices. A single CEN-GWEXER gateway enables an entire wireless
network of Crestron remotes, keypads, lighting dimmers, motorized
shades, thermostats, door locks, and other devices to communicate with a
Crestron control system.
infiNET EX
®
Technology
Ultra-reliable infiNET EX wireless technology provides steadfast 2-way
RF communications throughout a residential or commercial structure
without the need for physical control wiring. Employing a 2.4 GHz mesh
network topology, nearly every infiNET EX device on the network acts as an
“expander,” relaying wireless commands between the gateway and all the
other “EX” devices on the network to ensure that every command reaches
its intended destination without disruption. Each infiNET EX device that is
added to the network effectively increases the range and stability of the
entire network by providing multiple redundant signal paths. The wireless
range between any two EX devices is typically up to 150 ft (46 m) indoors.
[1]
“ER” Extended Range RF Technology
Crestron Extended Range (ER) wireless technology enables compatibility
with certain Crestron wireless touch screens and handheld remotes
including the TSR-302, TST-600, TST-602, and TST-902.
[2]
Crestron “ER”
operates in the same 2.4 GHZ spectrum as infiNET EX, and is specifically
optimized for use with wireless touch screen devices to ensure robust and
dependable bidirectional RF communications. The CEN-GWEXER
continuously monitors each ER device on the network, diligently keeping
track when a device goes to sleep, shuts down, or wanders out of range,
and restores communications seamlessly when the device reappears on
the network. The typical wireless range for ER devices is 100 to 200 feet
indoors, or up to 1000 feet outdoors. For even greater coverage, ER
supports roaming amongst up to eight gateways.
[3]
Easy Setup
The CEN-GWEXER can manage both infiNET EX and ER wireless devices
simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate gateways, antennas, and
LAN connections. Setting up a network of infiNET EX and/or ER devices is
simple, utilizing dynamic discovery to locate and acquire each wireless
device automatically. If no ER devices are acquired, the CEN-GWEXER can
support up to 100 infiNET EX devices (inclusive of up to six Crestron MLX-3
handheld remotes
[2]
). Each ER device that is added to the network negates
ten EX devices, with a maximum of ten ER devices allowed. For a more
detailed breakdown, please refer to “Supported Devices” in the
specifications section of this spec sheet.

Single-Wire Hookup
The CEN-GWEXER gateway communicates with a control system over
Ethernet and gets its operating power over the same Ethernet connection
using PoE technology. PoE (Power over Ethernet) simply requires the
presence of an 802.3af or 802.3at PoE power source.
Crestron offers the PWE-4803RU PoE Injector, which connects inline
with the Ethernet cable, allowing for installation at any convenient
location between the gateway and the network switch. The PWE-4803RU
is capable of powering a single gateway, and is available separately or
packaged with the gateway as model CEN-GWEXER-PWE
or CENI-GWEXER-PWE.

What is the weight of the Crestron CENI-GWEXER-PWE?

The Crestron CENI-GWEXER-PWE has a weight of 253 g.

What is the difference between a router and a modem?

A modem provides the internet connection via the internet provider. A router then distributes the Internet signal to the devices connected to the router.

What does the download speed on the internet depend on?

The download speed on the internet depends on the type of connection you have. If you have a 25 Mb/s connection this means that theoretically you should be able to download 25 MB per second.

Is WIFI radiation harmful?

WIFI is a radio frequency signal in the form of non-ionising radiation. This radiation cannot damage cells and tissues and is therefore not harmful to human health.
