Total capacity and total transmission range
POE
Fig. 53: Total capacity and total transmission range
Up to 64 "RF/IP Gateway" can be activated from a "Smart Access Point Pro". From these up to
16 "Electronic cylindrical lock" can be activated in an independent radio line in addition to the
"Smart Access Point Pro". This results in a theoretical total capacity of 1040 „Electronic
cylindrical lock“ in one system.Therefore, the total number of all devices in a system ("Electronic
cylindrical lock", "RF Repeater". etc.) must not exceed 600.
The maximum transmission range of 40 meters in a single radio line is often insufficient. In this
case the more remotely located devices are activated via "RF/IP Gateway" with independent
radio lines. The transmission range that can be implemented within a "ABB-AccessControl"
system is therefore only limited via th transmission range of the IP network.
– For the details of the transmission range that can be implemented within an IP network see
chapter 1.5 “Fundamentals of structured cabling“ on page 9.
Notice
■
If thick walls are located within the planned radio line, the attainable
transmission ranges are greatly reduced. In this case it would be practical to
split the radio line via several "RF/IP Gateway".
■
The same applies to connections on other floors where the radio signals
must pass through floor ceilings. Here it would be practical to plan a
separate "RF/IP Gateway" for every floor.
