Cresnet Hubs
Cresnet hubs are designed to expand the size of a Cresnet network system to over 25 client
devices or 1,500ft (457m) of wire runs. Each Cresnet hub provides multiple isolated Cresnet
segments that each support an additional 25 client devices and 1,500ft (457m)of wire runs.
Multiple Cresnet hubs can be added to a Cresnet network system to allow for up to 90 powered
client devices. Cresnet hubs are used primarily within star-network network topologies where a
single Cresnet server must power client devices across multiple rooms or locations in a facility.
Cresnet Hub
The CNXHUB is a six-segment Cresnet hub designed for configuring large Cresnet networks. A
Cresnet hub is ordinarily required for any Cresnet network that has more than 25 devices or
1,500ft (457m) of cable.

Diagnostic LEDs indicate the presence of network activity for connected devices.
l
Features six isolated Cresnet segments, each capable of supporting another 25 devices
with an additional aggregate run of 1,500ft (457m) of cable. More hubs can be added to
allow for a network of up to 90 devices.
l
Housed in a compact metal enclosure that can be placed on a shelf, attached under a
table, or mounted in a 19in. equipment rack. Its 1 RU half-width form factor allows it to fit
in a single rack-space alongside a second CNXHUB or other 1RU half-width Crestron
device.
