Ethernet Communication Interface ECI
The ECI, Ethernet Communication Interface, connects the xComfort wireless network to the Ethernet (LAN). The ECI can be easy configured to support the required application.
The main use of the ECI are:
- Control and connect xComfort RF devices using LAN. This application is typically interesting for a system integration for 3rd party applications to use Ethernet to interconnect with the xComfort RF devices. But also used to extend the xComfort network when the xComfort SHC is used.
- Routing of connections between xComfort RF devices over Ethernet (min. 2 ECI are necessary). This is used where wireless communication is difficult, for example through floors or walls that contain metal or longer distance needs to covered.
