PoE Technology for Extended Connectivity

The Gate Hub features UACC-Extender-2Wire-PoE technology, offering:

  • PoE input support for power-efficient operation.
  • Long-distance Ethernet data transmission over existing twisted pair cables.
  • PoE++ adapter compatibility, allowing AC power transmission to the Gate Hub.

This means no new cabling is needed, making installation faster and more cost-effective.

Recommended Gate Selection & Auto-Timer Feature

For the best experience, choose a gate with a built-in auto-timer feature. This feature automatically opens the gate when the Gate Hub relay is triggered and closes it after a preset period.

  • When the auto-close timer is deactivated, the gate must be closed manually.
  • When the auto-close timer is activated, the gate closes automatically after the specified time.

Ensure Safety with Entrapment Protection Devices

To comply with UL 325 safety standards and ensure proper License Plate Unlock functionality, the UL 325 terminals on the third-party gate operator control board must be connected to entrapment protection devices. Without correct installation, License Plate Unlock will not work. Learn more
