Eaton xComfort for Control4

Overview

Eaton has expanded its xComfort Product Portfolio to another building block – the Ethernet Communication Interface (ECI).

Users can use this single xComfort wireless solution to connect within a building over an Ethernet network, which allows the easy expansion of individual components in residential and small commercial buildings.

The ECI is available in two versions: LAN with 5V power supply and PoE (Power over Ethernet).

While the LAN version needs an additional power supply, the PoE LAN requires no separate power supply, because the supply is via Ethernet.

The driver suite provides 2-way control and feedback of the entire xComfort range of dimmers, switches, blinds, keypads, thermostats and energy meters.

Please be aware that this solution is meant to be used only for LAN networks with restricted access and not via public internet networks.
