Actor
Comfort Pro S can be connected to a door intercom system of the “DoorLine”. This intercom system is
connected to one of Comfort Pro S’s a/b ports via the “DoorLine” module (see Intercom System (for a/b)
starting on page 51).
The actor port also makes it possible to connect a separate door-opener. To do this you will need a twin-wire
connection cable.
LAN Ports
The LAN ports (LAN1, LAN2 and LAN3) support 10 MBit/s and 100 MBit/s transfer rates in half duplex or full
duplex operating mode. You can integrate Comfort Pro S into your company’s network (LAN, Local Area
Network) via the LAN ports (Ethernet ports, here provided as RJ45 sockets). This enables you to use
Comfort Pro S for VoIP telephony, to operate the Web console or to use the Comfort Pro S as an IP router for
connection to the Internet, among other things.
Transfer rates and operating modes are switched automatically (“Auto-Sensing function”). Connections
requiring a crossover Ethernet connection cable are also automatically switched. You can therefore also use a
uncrossed Ethernet connection cable to connect to a hub or switch. For VoIP application, a switch device is
required.
An Ethernet connection cable (twisted pair cable in accordance with 10BaseT or 100BaseTX) may be up to
100 m long. Safe operation with 100 MBit/s transfers requires the use of category 5 cables and connecting
sockets. Use a shielded Ethernet cable (STP cable, Shielded Twisted Pair cable).
There is an internal Ethernet switch with several ports on the Comfort Pro S’s main board. The switch is
connected to LAN1, LAN2, LAN3 and slot 2. The CPU provides two separate Ethernet interfaces/ports
internally. One of these interfaces/ports is connected to the LAN ports, the other to the WAN port.
