About AZW-5000
Alerton’s AZW-5000 is a wireless communications device designed to replace 
MS/TP and wall sensor cabling in instances where cabling is cost-prohibitive. It 
allows you to add a small (up to 15 controllers or devices) wireless subnetwork 
to a wired network.
A scenario where the AZW-5000 would be effective is a school that adds 
portable class rooms that need to be tied into the existing school Building 
Automation System (BAS). The cost of running cable underground to each 
portable is significant. AZW-5000 is an ideal solution to this problem allowing a 
wireless network to make the connection for a lower price than the labor and 
materials needed to bury a cable. 
It will also be useful when retrofitting wireless controllers into places where 
wiring or rewiring is prohibitively expensive - buildings with concrete walls, for 
example.
The AZW-5000 operates in one of three modes:.
• Coordinator - connects to the committed MS/TP network. Sends and 
receives system data to/from transceivers.
• Transceiver - connects to a unitary controller by an MS/TP cable. Also 
supports a wireless sensor by communicating data between the unitary 
controller and the wireless sensor. Sends and receives system data 
to/from the coordinator.
• Repeater - Connects only to power. Repeats transmissions in areas of 
weak reception. Note that the use of repeaters reduces the overall 
bandwidth of the network.
