The maximum length of the Cat 5e cable subnetwork data bus used to connect an ECLYPSE con-
troller to an ECx-display as a stub is 6.5 ft. (2m). The maximum total length of the Cat 5e cable sub-
network data bus remains 600 ft. (180 m). When other Cat 5e subnetwork devices are used, use an
ECx-Subnet Adapter to connect to those devices.

For BLE enabled Distech Controls devices:
Bluetooth low energy enabled devices such as the Allure UNITOUCH and the EC-Multi-Sensor-BLE
are only compatible with Distech Controls ECLYPSE Series Controllers.
A controller can support a maximum of two (2) Allure UNITOUCH sensors, and a maximum of four (4)
EC-Multi-Sensor-BLE devices.
The maximum total length of the Cat 5e cable subnetwork data bus remains 328 ft. (100 m). When
other Cat 5e subnetwork devices are used, an ECx-Subnet Adapter may be required to connect to
those devices.
See Subnetwork Module Compatibility and Supported Quantity Charts for the quantity of room devices
supported by each controller model.
