RP-C Communication Ports
The RP-C contains a combination of Ethernet, USB, SmartX Sensor, and Connected Room Solution communication ports.
This combination includes the following ports:
Two 10/100 Ethernet ports
One USB host port
One USB device port
One Sensor bus port
One Room bus port
When both Ethernet ports are enabled, they function as an onboard Ethernet switch. Disabling the second Ethernet port disables the switching function. The switching function enables flexible network topologies. For more information, see SmartX IP Controller Network Topologies . The second port also provides a connection point for a laptop running the eCommission SmartX Controllers mobile application.
The two USB ports are reserved for future use.
The Sensor bus port is designed for connection of SmartX Sensors. For more information, see SmartX IP Controller Sensor Bus .
The Room bus port is for future support of devices for connected room solutions that include equipment for control of electric lights, and window blinds. For more information, see RP-C Room Bus .
