The C2N‑SPWS300 provides a convenient and compact centralized power and termination solution to support the myriad touch screens, keypads, and other peripherals that make up a Crestron® system.
Intelligent Power Distribution
The C2N‑SPWS300 is a 300 Watt regulated power supply designed for powering a large network of Cresnet® devices. Power is supplied through 8 individually managed outputs. Each output is rated for up to a maximum of 75 Watts, with a total system rating of 300 Watts. Electronic circuit breaker protection is provided on every output, which can be individually monitored and reset from the control system. The voltage level at each output can even be monitored along with the ambient temperature and fault status for the complete power supply system.
Sequential Switching
To minimize current inrush upon startup, the C2N‑SPWS300 implements sequential switching of its 8 outputs. The startup process may be activated automatically when AC power is applied, or when 24 VDC is sensed coming from the control system or another power supply.
Cresnet Distribution
Connected to the Cresnet port of any Crestron control system, the C2N‑SPWS300 provides a total Cresnet distribution solution. Carrying both data and power, the 16 Cresnet ports afford great flexibility for the termination of numerous Cresnet devices, with easy expansion using C2N‑HBLOCK termination blocks (sold separately). It is also ideally designed to enhance the built‑in Cresnet distribution capabilities of the Crestron control system.
Versatile Mounting Options
The C2N‑SPWS300 can be installed in a Crestron CAEN Automation Enclosure using the optional CAEN‑MK (sold separately), or it can be rack mounted using the optional C2N‑RMAK (sold separately). Alternately, the C2N‑SPWS300 can be placed on a shelf or mounted on any vertical surface using its built‑in mounting flanges.

Award-winning Estate Case Studies
You might not guess it from the size of their house or the sophistication of their home systems, but the owners of this magnificent Wayne, Pennsylvania residence have simple tastes. According to Harry Blanchard, Chief Systems Integrator for Elite Home Technologies (a division of Philadelphia’s HiFi House Group), who designed the home automation systems, they are passionate about just three things:They love children and wanted a home where their large family could thrive.They love art and wanted a place where they could house and show their beautiful and extensive art collection.They are dedicated to personal fitness and healthy living and wanted a place where they could work out daily and grow their own food.These guiding principles helped build a dream home that is truly an education in what is possible with today’s technology. Still, Blanchard says it took some convincing to install the advanced control technology needed to make their new home practical, energy-efficient, safe, and comfortable.

There’s a life-giving energy in sunlight. It’s an energy that’s tangible, something we can feel, and something the designers of this beautiful contemporary home in Westchester, New York wanted to capture.
