Crestron C2ENET-1/-2 

2-Series Ethernet Interface Expansion Cards 

The 2-Series Ethernet Interface Expansion Cards, C2ENET-1 and C2ENET-2, are 
10/100 BaseT half/full duplex Ethernet cards designed for use in the Z-bus slot of 
Crestron’s AV2, PAC2, PRO2, and RACK2 2-Series control systems. The  
C2ENET-1 is a single-port WAN/LAN card, while the C2ENET-2 is a dual-port 
WAN/LAN card that, once installed, activates a control system's built-in firewall, 
router and network address translator (NAT). Either card allows for remote 
diagnostics and upgrades, access to Crestron’s network analyzer, and the ability to 
activate any device connected to a local control system via the Internet/Intranet.  

Throughout this guide, all references to C2ENET-1/-2 apply to both versions except 
where noted. 

As part of Crestron e-Control

®

, the C2ENET-1/-2 allows Internet communications to 

a control system. Web pages created in VisionTools
