Product information "CP4N"
The CP4N is a secure, high‑performance control processor
with a powerful 4-Series™ control engine. The CP4N is designed to integrate and
automate technology within any modern networked home, commercial building, or
government facility. An isolated control subnet port provides a Gigabit
Ethernet LAN dedicated to Crestron devices.
4-Series Control Engine
4-Series control systems come equipped with an upgraded multicore CPU,
delivering a sizable speed and performance increase compared to all Crestron 3‑Series®
control processors. The improved performance allows 4-Series control systems to
handle the increasing demands of an advanced automated system. Crestron
4-Series delivers a dynamic and secure control system platform capable of
managing a room full of disparate technologies.
Reliable networking and IP control afford seamless integration with other systems
and devices, with add-on control capability using Crestron touch screens,
wireless remotes, and mobile device apps, as well as remote management through
Crestron Fusion® software and the XiO Cloud® service.
Modular Programming Architecture
The CP4N provides a modular programming architecture that allows the CP4N to
run up to ten programs simultaneously. Programmers can develop and run
independent, device‑specific programs, enabling each program to be optimized
for a specific function and allowing for changes to be made to one program
without affecting the whole system.
Dedicated Control Subnet
The Crestron Control Subnet is a Gigabit Ethernet network dedicated to Crestron
devices. Via the Control Subnet port, an installer can connect a single touch
screen or wireless gateway or can add a Crestron PoE switch (CEN‑SW‑POE‑5 or CEN‑SWPOE‑16,
both sold separately) to handle multiple touch screens, gateways, AV
components, and other devices. Auto-configuration of the entire subnet is
performed by the CP4N, discovering each device and assigning IP addresses
without any extra effort from the installer.
NOTE: The Control Subnet port does not supply any PoE power to connected
devices
A separate LAN port provides a single-point connection to the local network,
requiring only one IP address for the entire control system. The LAN port
allows for interconnectivity between devices on the local subnet and other
devices, systems, servers, and WAN/internet connections outside the local
subnet. For sensitive applications that require heightened security, the entire
Control Subnet can be isolated completely from the local network.
Onboard Control Ports
Through a full complement of onboard control ports, the CP4N can be integrated
with a wide variety of audio, video, lighting, motorized shades, thermostats,
door locks, sensors, security systems, and other equipment.
- Gigabit Ethernet provides an interface for connecting to the building network and controlling Crestron AV switchers, audio processors, power controllers, and other IP controllable equipment.
- Cresnet® network connectivity provides support for Crestron lighting dimmers, motorized shades, sensors, thermostats, keypads, and more.
- Onboard RS‑232, IR/serial, relay, and Versiport I/O control ports enable direct integration with all types of third‑party equipment.
Expanded connectivity can be provided to the CP4N via
Crestron control
port expansion modules, Ethernet
to Cresnet bridges, wired
Ethernet I/O modules, wireless
network I/O modules, or infiNET
EX® network wireless gateways (all sold separately).
Crestron Fusion Room Monitoring and Scheduling
Crestron Fusion provides an integrated platform for creating smart buildings
that save energy and enhance worker productivity. As part of a complete managed
network in a corporate enterprise, college campus, convention center, or any
other facility, the CP4N works with Crestron Fusion to enable remote
scheduling, monitoring, and control of rooms and technology from a central help
desk or mobile app. It also enables organizations to reduce energy consumption
by tracking real-time usage and automating control of AV, lighting, shades, and
HVAC. For more information about Crestron Fusion, visit www.crestron.com/fusion.
XiO Cloud Provisioning and Management
4-Series control systems leverage the power and flexibility of XiO Cloud
services, enabling users to remotely provision, monitor, and manage Crestron
devices across an enterprise network. XiO Cloud can be used to configure and
load programs to the control system before it is received, making the control
system fully functional as soon as it is connected to the network. XiO Cloud is
built on the Microsoft® Azure® software platform and utilizes Microsoft's
industry leading Azure IoT Hub technology. XiO Cloud enables installers and IT
managers to deploy and manage thousands of devices in the time it previously
took to manage just one. Unlike other virtual machine based cloud solutions,
Azure services provide unlimited scalability to suit the ever growing needs of
an enterprise. For more information, visit www.crestron.com/xiocloud.
Enhanced Enterprise-Grade Security
The CP4N is an enterprise‑class control processor that can be deployed across
hundreds of spaces and set up easily using a web browser, Crestron Toolbox™
software, or XiO Cloud. It employs standard network security protocols,
including 802.1X network access control, Active Directory® service
authentication, SSH, TLS, and HTTPS to ensure reliability and compliance with
your organization’s IT policies.
The CP4N is configured to meet Crestron's enhanced security standards right out
of the box. The CP4N ships with authentication enabled and requires that an
administrator account be created before access is granted to device
configuration and control interfaces.
SNMP V3 Support
Built-in SNMP V3 support enables integration with third-party IT management
software, allowing network administrators to manage and control Crestron
systems on the network in an IT-friendly format.
BACnet Support
Native support for the BACnet communication protocol provides a direct
interface to third-party building management systems over Ethernet, simplifying
integration with HVAC, security, and other systems. Using BACnet, each system
runs independently but communicates together on one platform.1
Apple HomeKit Integration
The CP4N supports integration with an Apple® HomeKit® technology system. Once
the CP4N is paired with a HomeKit system via SIMPL programming,
a Crestron TSR-310 can
be used to control supported Apple devices. A pairing QR code is
affixed to the CP4N that makes it easy to pair the control system directly to
the Apple Home app.2
