About the Crestron DIN-BLOCK
Cresnet is the 4-wire bus that links Crestron lighting modules, wall box dimmers, shade controllers, thermostats, keypads, touch panels and many other devices, and it allows a mix of home run and daisy-chain wiring. The DIN-BLOCK connects up to 12 separate Cresnet cables in parallel, using detachable screw terminal blocks that make termination and troubleshooting easier.
Cresnet carries 24 VDC to power connected devices as well as data. The ports on the DIN-BLOCK are split into two separate power groups, which makes it easier to manage power distribution across a whole Cresnet network. A separate power supply can be dedicated to each group, or a single supply can be connected. Diagnostic LEDs show network power and data.
It is a passive device, so no programming is required. The block is 6M wide and snaps onto a standard DIN rail in a wall mount enclosure, or it can be mounted on a wall panel. Its detachable screw terminals run along the top and bottom and are accessible from the front, which makes installation and servicing easier.

Questions about the Crestron DIN-BLOCK
What is the Crestron DIN-BLOCK?
It is a DIN rail mounted Cresnet distribution block with 12 ports. It provides a termination point for Cresnet wiring at a head end or distribution point, connecting up to 12 separate Cresnet cables in parallel, and it fits alongside Crestron DIN Rail lighting and automation control modules.
Does the DIN-BLOCK need programming?
No. It is a passive device and no programming is required. It connects up to 12 Cresnet cables in parallel, and its diagnostic LEDs show whether Cresnet network power and data are present.
How does the split power bus on the DIN-BLOCK work?
Cresnet carries 24 VDC for powering connected devices as well as data. The DIN-BLOCK arranges its Cresnet ports into two separate power groups, so a separate power supply can be dedicated to each group, or a single supply can be connected. This makes it easier to manage power across a complete Cresnet network.
What wiring does the block accept?
It terminates Cresnet, the flexible 4-wire bus, on detachable screw terminal blocks. Cresnet allows combinations of home run and daisy-chain wiring, and the block connects up to 12 separate cables in parallel. The terminals sit along the top and bottom and are accessible from the front.
How is the block mounted?
It is 6M wide and snaps onto a standard DIN rail for installation in a wall mount enclosure, or it can be mounted on a wall panel. This allows modular installation alongside Crestron DIN Rail lighting and automation modules and other third-party DIN rail devices.
How much is the Crestron DIN-BLOCK?
Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the DIN-BLOCK 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 DIN-BLOCK?
Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the DIN-BLOCK 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 DIN-BLOCK come with a warranty?
Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the DIN-BLOCK 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 DIN-BLOCK 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 DIN-BLOCK 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.
