Description
IP Router
The IP Router N146/02 is a DIN rail mounted device.
The device implements the KNXnet/IP standard and
connects KNX/EIB lines via data networks using the
Internet Protocol (IP). Also this device offers concurrent
access to the bus line from any PC or other data
processing equipment.
The physical connection to the KNX/EIB is established
via a bus connector terminal block. For connection to the
data network (IP via 10BaseT) the device contains an
RJ45 socket.
By using a LAN modem an KNX/EIB installation can be
remotely accessed even if there is no direct data
network connection between a PC and an IP Router.
LAN modems are available on the market for standard
telephone, ISDN or DSL connections.
The IP Router requires additional operating power for its
operation. The IP Router N146/02 can source this
operating power via the network connection from “Power
over Ethernet†according to IEEE 802.3af. Alternatively,
the operating power can be provided via a second
terminal block (white-yellow terminals) by a safety extra
low voltage (SELV) power supply AC/DC 24 V or by a
bus power supply (unchoked power, DC 29V). When a
SELV power supply is connected the operating power is
sourced from it.
The IP Router has these characteristics:
-
Simple connection to hierarchically superimposed
systems via Internet Protocol (IP)
-
Direct access to the KNX/EIB installation from any
access point to the IP network (KNXnet/IP Tunneling)
-
Fast communication between KNX/EIB lines, areas
and systems (KNXnet/IP Routing)
-
Communication between buildings and facilities
-
Filtering and routing of telegrams depending on
