Description
The CA-A360-USB CAB RS-485 Converter is a critical component for extending communication capabilities in access control systems. It facilitates a “daisy-chain” configuration between the central server and the CT-V900-A controller, enabling communication over distances up to 1220 meters (4000 feet). This converter features Transmit, Receive, and Power LEDs to visually indicate operational status.
This device is essential when the server and CT-V900-A controller are separated by more than 8.5 meters (25 feet).
