Control4’s family of automation controllers are the foundation of the Control4 Smart Home. They are purpose built to enable the smart-home experiences that are most important to your customers, including entertainment, peace of mind, convenience, and comfort. Control4 automation controllers offer a high level of performance, reliability, and functionality enabling you to deliver rich, stable smart-home solutions for your customers, from a single room to an entire automated home and anything in between.
The CA-10 Automation Controller is built for big jobs, delivering 4x the processing power and memory of the EA-5 to provide great performance even when controlling thousands of devices. The CA-10 is also fault tolerant, engineered with multiple fail-safes to keep the system running even if a power supply, network port, solid-state drive (SSD), or fan fails. Fail-over notifications are also available through programming events so the system can automatically notify our support team.
The CA-1 Automation Controller is designed to help you unlock new opportunities with more customers at a great starting price. It is perfect for smart home experiences built around lighting, HVAC, IP cameras, door locks, shades, and other IoT devices—for customers interested in automation outside of the AV space. It includes a high-performance ZigBee radio and can be powered over PoE, so it’s a great tool to expand ZigBee networks in larger Control4 installations.
The Control4 EA line of controllers is engineered to deliver entertainment experiences built around a television, home theatre, or a whole home of music and video. But even when entertainment is the primary driver for a Control4 system, today’s automated home is much more than music and video; it also includes all kinds of smart technology, from lighting to HVAC, IP cameras to shades. The EA line of controllers has the processing power and I/O you need to deliver experiences that are truly exceptional.
