Ajax ReX 2 Smart Home Signal Extender Wired & Wireless

The Ajax ReX 2 is a professional signal extender designed to significantly expand the coverage area of an Ajax security system. By supporting both wired Ethernet and wireless radio connectivity, this device ensures reliable communication between security sensors and the hub, effectively overcoming physical obstacles such as thick walls, multi-story layouts, or large industrial complexes. It acts as an intelligent control panel, managing connected devices autonomously to maintain system integrity even if the primary connection is interrupted.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the Ajax ReX 2 is its ability to extend radio network coverage up to 35 square kilometers when multiple extenders are used. It features advanced photo verification capabilities, allowing it to work seamlessly with motion detectors that capture animated images upon alarm triggers. The device is built for maximum reliability, utilizing four antennas and dual proprietary radio protocols for secure, encrypted data transmission. Furthermore, its dual-path connectivity via Ethernet and radio ensures that the security system remains operational even in challenging environments where radio signals might be blocked by steel or concrete structures.

Suitable for

• Large private estates and multi-story homes
• Business centers and office complexes
• Warehouse facilities and production plants
• Buildings with underground parking or metal hangars

The Ajax ReX 2 may not be suitable for systems that do not utilize compatible Ajax hubs, such as Hub 2, Hub 2 Plus, or Hub Hybrid. Additionally, it is not intended for use in environments where the required network infrastructure for Ethernet connectivity cannot be established if wireless signal penetration is completely impossible.

• Connectivity: Wired (Ethernet) and Wireless (RF)
• Maximum transmission distance: 1700 meters
• Power supply: 110-240V AC, 50/60 Hz
• Backup battery: Up to 38 hours of operation
• Alarm transmission speed: 0.3 seconds
• Dimensions: 163 x 163 x 36 mm
• Supported features: Photo verification, encrypted data transmission

How to use

Installation is designed to be efficient and user-friendly. To add the ReX 2 to your existing Ajax system, simply scan the QR code provided on the device using the official Ajax mobile application. Once scanned, assign the extender to a specific room within the app interface. Configuration is handled in real-time through the software, allowing for adjustments without the need for physical site visits. The device can be connected to the hub via radio or Ethernet cable, depending on your facility's specific requirements.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your current control panel is compatible with the ReX 2 model.
• Verify the layout of your premises to determine if Ethernet cabling is required for optimal coverage.
• Check the signal strength in the intended installation area using the Ajax app tools.
• Confirm that your security system firmware is updated to support the latest features.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, position the ReX 2 in a central location between the hub and the furthest sensors. If installing in a building with significant metal or concrete interference, prioritize the Ethernet connection to ensure the most stable communication link.
