Decoders
Decoders are a cost-effective alternative to traditional in-field controllers.
Installed underground and featuring simple, low-cost wiring, decoders are
an aesthetically pleasing and economical option for reliable, in-field control.
Installation requires up to 80 percent less wire than conventional controller
systems. Electronic components are completely encapsulated to protect
against the elements. And system expansion is easy: simply splice into the
communication line to add additional decoders.
