Crestron DIN-HUB DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub Crestron Green Light™ DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub: DIN-HUB Introduction The DIN-HUB is a DIN rail-mounted Cresnet® hub designed to facilitate the configuration of large Cresnet networks. DIN rail mounting enables modular installation alongside Crestron® DIN Rail lighting and automation control modules and other third party DIN rail mountable devices.
DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub Crestron DIN-HUB Three-Segment Cresnet Hub Cresnet is the communications backbone for Crestron lighting modules, wall box dimmers, shade controllers, thermostats, keypads, touchpanels, and many other devices. This flexible 4-wire bus normally supports approximately 20 Cresnet devices without requiring a hub. Larger systems are easily enabled by adding the DIN-HUB.

Crestron DIN-HUB DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub Setup Network Wiring When wiring the Cresnet® network, consider the following: • Use Crestron Certified Wire. NOTE: Cresnet-HP wire cannot be used. • Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment. • Provide sufficient power to the system. CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate how much power is needed for the system (www.crestron.
DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub Crestron DIN-HUB The DIN-HUB is designed for installation on a DIN rail. Refer to the following diagram when installing. Installing the DIN-HUB DIN-HUB TOP DIN RAIL (NOT SUPPLIED) DIN RAIL RELEASE 1. Place the top of the DIN-HUB’s rail mount over the top of the DIN rail. 2. Tilt the bottom of the DIN-HUB toward the DIN rail until it snaps into place.
Crestron DIN-HUB DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub Hardware Hookup Make the necessary connections as called out in the illustration that follows this paragraph. Refer to “Network Wiring” on page 9 before attaching the 4-position terminal block connector. Apply power after all connections have been made. When making connections to the DIN-HUB, use a Crestron power supply. Hardware Connections for the DIN-HUB NET PWR INPUT: 24 VDC JUMPERED FROM NET HOST PORT or EXTERNAL SUPPLY.
DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub Crestron DIN-HUB Power can be supplied from a DIN-PWS50 DIN Rail Power Supply or other Cresnet power supply connected to the NET HOST port. For more information, refer to the latest version of the DIN-PWS50 Operations & Installation Guide (Doc. 6667), which is available for download from the Crestron website (www.crestron.com/manuals). NOTE: The DIN-HUB can only be powered by the NET HOST port.

Verify that sufficient power is available. If necessary, connect the NET PWR INPUT port to an external power supply.
DIN Rail Cresnet® Distribution Hub Crestron DIN-HUB Cresnet units are to be daisy-chained on the run, the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be daisy-chained must be added together to determine the Cresnet power usage of the entire chain. If the unit is home-run from a Crestron system power supply network port, the Cresnet power usage of that unit is the Cresnet power usage of the entire run.
