PowerShades has announced the availability of its Gen2 RF Gateway. With this new RF Gateway, users of PowerShades RF automated shades (including battery-powered, DC, and AC) can enjoy fast, efficient connectivity between their shades and the PowerShades Dashboard, as well as with a range of other operating systems and devices.
PowerShades Gen2 RF Gateway delivers significantly faster processing than its predecessor — in fact, at 550 MHz it is nearly seven times faster. This ensures improved responsiveness and reliable performance. It also offers more internal storage than Gen1, allowing for future integrations.
The new Gen2 RF Gateway utilizes Power-over-Ethernet for the most efficient power delivery through a single Ethernet cable. This not only reduces energy usage but also simplifies installation and reduces clutter.
PowerShades’ Gen2 RF Gateway also offers the option of USB-C Power, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of operating systems and devices. Plus, with its Dry Contact Input, the Gen2 RF Gateway enables versatile integration and enhances the flexibility of automation setup.
Indicators — both audio and visual (RGB LED) on the Gen2 RF Gateway — provide intuitive feedback. This new feature simplifies the process of recognizing system status and troubleshooting issues.
