AI 16 Input/8 Output - (AI 16-8)

Downstream Input/Output Board   (16 Supervised Inputs & 8 Outputs)

Extend your Access Control system with the Azure BLU-IO168’s 16 high-precision sensor inputs and 8 relay outputs. The large number of inputs and outputs enables the full control of additional doors, monitoring extensive sensor networks, and elevator control. Plug-in expansion module adds 8 more relay outputs. The BLU-IO168 communicates with proprietary or OSDP protocols, both fully encrypted. Relative to the quantity of hardware interfaces, the BLU-IO168 consumes minimal power and is even offered with PoE+ options.
