About the Crestron CAEN-2X1
At 2 modules high by 1 wide, the CAEN-2X1 is one of six CAEN sizes. Every model is built from 16-gauge galvanised steel and is pre-drilled for mounting CLX-DIN-AP3 and PAC2M control systems, CLX Series modules and CLT Series terminal blocks. The CAEN range also houses DIN-AP4 and DIN-AP4-R control systems, and mounting DIN 4-Series automation processors or Cresnet hubs requires a CAEN-UMP1X2-DIN-PWS.
Inside, the backbox has grounding blocks and low-voltage partitions, with provisions for wire termination and electrical knockouts, and a vented front cover is included. As with other Crestron lighting and automation systems, cooling is entirely by convection, which keeps it silent and reliable. The enclosure is intended for 120 and 230 volt systems in residential and commercial applications.
CAEN enclosures work in centralised or distributed designs, and one PAC2M control system in a central enclosure can serve many satellite extension enclosures around a home or commercial building. The enclosures can also carry structured voice and data wiring, security or RF signal distribution where the applicable codes allow, and extra mounting and termination accessories are offered separately.

How is the enclosure constructed?
It is built from 16-gauge galvanised steel, with grounding blocks, low-voltage partitions and provisions for wire termination and electrical knockouts. A vented front cover is included, and the system is convection cooled for silent and reliable operation.
What else can CAEN enclosures be used for?
Beyond lighting and control, a CAEN enclosure can carry structured voice and data wiring, security or RF signal distribution, where the applicable codes allow. The range also suits distributed designs, in which one PAC2M control system in a central enclosure serves many satellite extension enclosures.
How much is the Crestron CAEN-2X1?
Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the CAEN-2X1 directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.
Can 1Install supply, install and programme the CAEN-2X1?
Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the CAEN-2X1 on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.
Does the CAEN-2X1 come with a warranty?
Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the CAEN-2X1 develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.
Is the CAEN-2X1 in stock?
We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.
Can I buy the CAEN-2X1 without installation?
Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
