Napco AL-IME2-POE 3rd Generation Poe Gateway

Product Description

The NAPCO SECURITY TECHNOLOGIES AL-IME2-POE is a third-generation Power over Ethernet gateway designed for access control and door hardware systems. It receives both data and electrical power through a single Ethernet cable using the PoE standard, eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the installation point. This design simplifies wiring runs and reduces installation time in commercial and residential access control deployments. Licensed security technicians and access control integrators are the primary installers of this device.

The AL-IME2-POE is suited for access control applications involving locksets and door hardware. It is typically installed at door or entry-point locations where a network connection is available and a dedicated power run is not practical. The PoE architecture makes it well-suited for structured cabling environments found in commercial buildings, office suites, and multi-tenant facilities.

Key Features

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed security or low-voltage technician familiar with access control systems and PoE network infrastructure. Power down or disconnect the PoE switch port before connecting or disconnecting the gateway to prevent electrical damage. Verify that the PoE switch or injector meets the power requirements of the device before completing the installation. Work should comply with applicable local codes and NEC requirements for low-voltage wiring.
