Overview

  • Bridges RF-only INSTEON devices with power line-only INSTEON devices
  • Uses 915MHz band for fast, reliable communication

Essential Info

INSTEON is a powerful, home-control networking technology that will enhance the comfort, safety, convenience and value of your home. The INSTEON Access Point (& Wireless Phase Coupler) is dual-band (RF + power line) device which is the most important part of the INSTEON network. When used in pairs, Access Points will couple the electrical phases across common two-phase wiring systems, allowing INSTEON commands to freely travel to all locations in your home.

Dual-band INSTEON products allow RF-only INSTEON devices to send (and receive) commands to (and from) power line-only INSTEON devices as well as repeat the commands to other RF-only devices. While at least one (1) dual-band INSTEON product is required when using an RF-only INSTEON device, at least two (2) dual-band INSTEON products are recommended to ensure reliable communication across common two-phase home wiring systems. For larger applications, it is recommended to install at least one dual-band INSTEON product for each 750 - 1,000 square feet.

The Access Point functionality is built into all dual-band INSTEON products.

What's Included

  • INSTEON Access Point (& Wireless Phase Coupler)
  • More Info


    The INSTEON Access Point (& Wireless Phase Coupler) creates your dual-mesh INSTEON network by simultaneously transmitting and receiving INSTEON commands across both radio frequency and your home's existing wiring. When used as a pair, the Access Points also couple the two different electrical phases of your home. Each Access Point also repeats INSTEON commands, adding to the network's robust reliability. Please Note: Access Points repeat INSTEON signals and not X10.

    Control All of Your Lights From Your Couch
    Using a INSTEON RemoteLinc Wireless Remote Control (sold separately), the first wireless remote to send INSTEON commands to your lighting and appliances to control them remotely, you'll be able to turn all INSTEON-compatible devices in your home on and off at the press of a button. The Access Point bridges the RemoteLinc's RF signals to your home's power line, delivering power and scene commands to INSTEON-compatible devices throughout the house.

    White status LED
    The LED is used initially to help set up your network. After the initial setup, the white LED will flicker as it sends or receives INSTEON signals, making it easy to see when there is traffic traveling through your INSTEON network.

    Technical Note for use in Commercial or Large Residential Building
    INSTEON has only officially been tested in a 2-phase residential environment, but has been known to work in many 3-phase systems, where 3 Access Points are used (one on each phase). However, due to the potential complexity of its troubleshooting, Smarthome Technical Support is unable to support INSTEON in 3-phase environments.

    CODY -- amarillo, TX   11/13/2011
    I had no problems with this component. It seems to work very well when the batteries are charged fully on the remote link....
    RICK -- saint louis, MO   11/10/2011
    Works as advertised. The installation instructions need to be clearer regarding the blinking green/red lights and determining if/when you have it installed properly.
    KIRK -- tularosa, NM   11/3/2011
    This needs to be included with a switch.
    RUSSELL -- vilonia, AR   10/20/2011
    Item works as described.
    MARK -- spencer, MA   10/7/2011
    Helped me solve phase problem in house for my Insteon devices. Plugged into outlet near my central controller then the second one down in an area where getting "dead spot" and now no issues. Took only seconds. Well worth the investment.
    IAN -- emeryville, CA   9/29/2011
    It works 99% of the time, though i am not happy with the Mobilync app. it should be easier for setting up scenes (which i can't figure out how to do) and sometime it doesn't work unless i close the app then reopen.
    ROBERT -- green cove springs, FL   9/18/2011
    Want a totally reliable installation? Here ya go.
    DANIEL -- pineville, LA   9/1/2011
    I think it works well, but I can't really tell. I still have one Insteon switch that seems to miss signals, but I haven't done enough testing to see why. I may just have to move the phase coupler.
    DAVID -- hope, RI   8/27/2011
    1st unit failed. Customer service was great sent me out another and it works well.
    ROBERT -- san francisco, CA   8/11/2011
    Insteon is BY FAR the best product of it's type I've ever used. It just works!

    PAUL -- kingsland, TX   6/13/2011
    Awesome way to couple phases
    JONATHAN -- wayne, NJ   5/28/2011
    fixed My problem, One of my ico switches was not recognized but after installing this it worked!
    LAWRENCE -- apo ap, AP   5/24/2011
    I ordered a third unit in the event the signal two my other two wouldn't make it out of my steel-reinforced concrete garage. I didn't need it! Will keep it as back-up or use it upstairs for future wireless switch project (probably won't require it for that either. Great line of products and super service.
    TED -- shingle springs, CA   5/13/2011
    Just plug it in and forget it what could be simpler, works fine but installation instructions not exactly accurate
    ROGER -- la crescenta, CA   4/17/2011
    Arrived right away for the electrician who was already here.
