Product Description

Built with performance, flexibility, and empowering in mind, Global Connect's design is based on open systems to work with any control software or hardware, delivering a simple cost-effective way to extend the reach of any control system. Global Connect is the next generation for IP connectivity and control. The Global Connect is comprised of three elements: the chassis, the number of slots per chassis, and installed modules. The Global Caché Global Connect, GC5 with PoE, 2 Serial, IR Port includes 3 emitter IR ports/sensor inputs and 2 RS232 serial ports with PoE connectivity.

Bi-directional Serial RS232:

  • Connects RS232 devices to the network and other serial devices
  • Each RS232 interface includes a male DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) DB9 connector

3 IR Emitters/ 1 IR Blaster Cable:

  • Includes three 3.5mm stereo jack ports acting as independent IR outputs or sensor inputs
  • Each IR emitter has a range of 1 inch (2.5 cm) and must be placed directly on top of the IR receiver of the controlled device
  • IR blaster transmits up to 35 feet (10 meters)
  • Includes built in IR learning

The Global Connect uses an online web tool to configure settings for each installed module. Download and run Global Caché's iHelp program to configure the Global Connect. The program will detect the individual IP addresses for each of the modules installed. Select the module you wish to adjust settings for and apply the relevant changes.

In The Box:

  • RS232 DB9 Connector
  • 3 Emitter IR Ports/Sensor Inputs
  • 5 Slot, 7.5-Inch Freestanding Chassis
  • Manual

Available for sale only in the U.S.
