A DX sensor package consists of terminals, sensors and two RJ-45 ports.
Different DX sensor packages have a different number of terminals.
Every pair of terminals is a channel for connecting a sensor or actuator.
DX contact closure channels do NOT support any water detection
sensors, including Raritan's DPX water sensors --
DPX-WSF and
DPX-WSC series.
DX contact closure channels support the following types of sensors:
Door open/closed detection
Door lock detection
Smoke detection
Vibration detection
Important: DX may also not support third-party leakage detectors so
you must test them before using any third-party leakage detectors.
DX series works with Raritan's DPX3 sensor hub 'DPX3-ENVHUB4', but
not with the DPX sensor hub 'DPX-ENVHUB4'.
No sensor cables are shipped with DX sensor packages.
With a standard network patch cable (CAT5e or higher), you can:
Connect a DX sensor to a Raritan or Legrand product with the RJ-45
SENSOR port, such as Raritan's PX3 PDU or Legrand PDU.
Exception: For a Raritan PDU or EMX with an "RJ-12" SENSOR port,
an RJ-12 to RJ-45 adapter cable (part number: RJ12M-RJ45M) is
needed, which you can request from Raritan.
Daisy chain DX sensor packages.
Warning: Do NOT use a crossover cable for connection.
