SAUSALITO, CA — Coactive Networks, a provider of commercial and residential gateways for connecting devices, appliances, and control systems to the Internet, has announced that its Coactive Connector® product line will now simultaneously allow communications to home devices over both existing electrical wiring and unshielded twisted-pair wiring.
The connector already communicates with home devices such as appliances and lights by simply plugging them into an electrical outlet. The new enhancement makes it easier to include home systems such as hvac and security, which might be better suited to a wired connection.
