Self-Installable Interface for UPB-Controlled Devices. Model UMCDB9-W is a plug-in module that enables computer-based configuration and control of household lighting, appliances and other devices over the powerline. The module communicates using the highly-reliable Universal Powerline Bus (UPB) technology. UPB devices such as Model UMCDB9-W are easily integrated to provide a flexible, low-cost alternative to hardwired or RF home automation strategies.

Features:

• Model UMCDB9-W receives and transmits UPB digital commands and converts these signals to a serial RS-232C interface format.
• Installation is simple: the module is plugged into a standard 120VAC outlet and the serial port of the computer or server is connected to the module using a standard DB-9 cable. With appropriate software, the computer can then be used to configure and/or control UPB devices in the home.
• A pass-through (non-contolled) power outlet is provided on the face of the module.
• The UMCDB9-W is USB compatible when used with an RS-232-to-USB adapter.
