Reliable Routing and Network Visibility

Connect BACnet/IP systems to MS/TP field networks with transparent routing, built-in diagnostics, and flexible deployment options.

Smart Routing

Engineered for reliable traffic exchange between BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP in live BAS deployments.

  • Bi-directional routing between BACnet/IP and MS/TP
  • Supports BBMD (BACnet Broadcast Management Device)
  • Capacity for 128 BDT/FDT entries
  • Visualized real-time routing table

Comprehensive Diagnostics

Gives engineers practical tools to locate communication problems quickly without disrupting the running network.

  • Bi-color LED status indicators
  • Secure web configuration interface
  • One-click factory reset
  • Non-intrusive bus sniffing

Flexible Networking

Adapts to different BAS infrastructure conditions with Ethernet, addressing, and diagnostic tools ready for field deployment.

  • 10/100M auto-negotiation Ethernet
  • Auto-MDIX automatic line sequence
  • Dual mode DHCP / static IP
  • Built-in web diagnostic server

Real-Time Monitoring

Keeps communication behavior visible after handover so operations teams can react to changes with confidence.

  • Real-time traffic statistics
  • Device status visualization
  • Communication anomaly alerts
  • Historical data logging

Typical BACnet Router Use Cases

Seamlessly integrate MS/TP equipment into BACnet/IP head-end systems for new builds and retrofits.

BMS Head-End Integration

Connect BACnet/IP supervisory platforms to BACnet MS/TP equipment across HVAC, metering, and lighting systems.

MS/TP Network Expansion

Add clean routing between field bus segments and Ethernet backbones without redesigning the existing BAS architecture.

Service and Troubleshooting

Use web diagnostics, traffic visibility, and status indicators to support commissioning and long-term maintenance.

Real-Time Communication Monitoring

Monitor routing status, device connectivity, and communication statistics through the built-in web diagnostic interface.
