The IPG-8T Relay Contact transmitter monitors 8 separate switch contact input signals and sends the status of each switch input via an embedded device server to a matching relay output receiver placed anywhere on the network. Use this unit when you want to send contact switch or relay information over a LAN Local Area Network or on a wireless network transmission path back to a receiver. This contact relay over network system can be used to relay alarm contacts or remote control signals for industrial applications.

The IPG-8T continuously monitors the input switch contact condition of 8 channels A-D and sends a data stream via the network connection to the receiver IPG-8R unit. This unit uses a standard 8P8C network cable for connection onto any LAN or network system. The signals generated will go anywhere on a network using TCP/IP protocol.

The embedded device server uses 10/100Mbit Ethernet protocol, auto sensing, stable, field proven TCP/IP protocol, easy configuration through a web interface or by direct Ethernet cable connection, Password Protection capable and Bi-Color LED indicators for Link status, speed, and activity.

The IPG-8T transmitter can be used on a wireless link to return the contact information to another location to control the relay outputs. This unit will work with any network capable of carrying TCP/IP protocol.
