Analog Devices is driving the digitalization of building automation networks with the launch of an Ethernet solution for small, power-constrained edge devices.

Analog Devices (ADI) announced today the launch of a complete 10BASE-T1L Ethernet solution designed for building automation networks.

Connected digital automation equipment enables comprehensive building management, from heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) functions to indoor comfort.

The new ADIN2111 adds Long Reach Ethernet connectivity to controllers, sensors, and actuators, enabling more efficient and sustainable building management.

Ideal for small, power-constrained edge devices, the ADIN2111 reduces power consumption by up to 50% and PCB space by up to 75% compared to discrete implementations.

The ADIN2111 is designed to reduce retrofit costs by daisy-chaining data across line and ring networks using the existing single-pair cabling infrastructure within a building.

Enhanced diagnostic capabilities reduce commissioning, installation, and system downtime by quickly and effectively leveraging real-time information about link quality and fault location to resolve issues quickly and effectively.

IEEE 8Compliant with the 02.3cg standard, this solution implements Ethernet connectivity over cabling lengths of 1.7 km or more and supports soft real-time protocols such as Modbus/TCP, BACnet/IP and KNX, as well as ring redundancy.
