Elk Products Inc ELK-M1DBHR Data Bus Hub Retrofit Module

Product Description

The ELK PRODUCTS INC ELK-M1DBHR is a data bus hub retrofit module designed for use with compatible security and automation control panel systems. This module expands or restructures the data bus topology of an existing installation, allowing technicians to add hub-style wiring to a system that was originally configured without one. The retrofit form factor means the ELK-M1DBHR can be added to a panel already in the field without requiring a full control panel replacement. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for installation by licensed security or low-voltage technicians.

The ELK-M1DBHR is suited for residential and light commercial security and automation applications where an existing control panel requires a data bus hub upgrade. It fits into panel expansion scenarios where additional keypads, modules, or devices need to be distributed across a structured wiring layout rather than a daisy-chain run. Technicians performing system retrofits or upgrades will find this module appropriate for reorganizing bus wiring without disrupting the core control panel.

Key Features

• Retrofit design allows installation into existing control panel systems without full panel replacement
• Provides hub-style data bus topology for cleaner, more reliable device distribution
• Sold as a single unit for targeted, as-needed installation
• Compact accessory form factor fits within standard control panel enclosures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style retrofit accessory for compatible data bus-based security and automation control panel systems. Refer to ELK PRODUCTS INC documentation to confirm compatibility with your specific panel model before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or security systems technician familiar with data bus wiring practices. Power down the control panel completely before connecting or disconnecting any bus modules or wiring. Follow all applicable low-voltage wiring codes and the manufacturer installation guide for proper bus termination and device addressing. Do not exceed the maximum device count or cable run length specified in the panel documentation.
