About the Crestron ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A

It is rated 20A at 100-277VAC, 50/60 Hz, with high inrush, zero cross switching. Switched load types are LED, fluorescent ballast, incandescent, magnetic and electronic low-voltage, neon/cold cathode and high-intensity discharge. This is the switch version of the ZUMMESH-JBOX series; the ZUMMESH-JBOX-16A-LV adds 0-10V dimming, and the ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A-PLUG is intended for plug loads.

Communication is Zūm Mesh 2-way RF at 2.4 GHz, IEEE 802.15.4 compliant, with a range of 50 ft (15 m) to the nearest mesh device, subject to site conditions. It pairs with Zūm keypads and occupancy, vacancy and daylight sensors, and its expansion port takes a ZUMMESH-NETBRIDGE for Zūm Net (sold separately) or a ZUMMESH-CCO contact closure output. Room setup and factory reset use the SETUP button, and the TEST button toggles the switched load.

Wiring is by 14 AWG Class 1 flying leads: black for line, white for neutral and red for the switched load. The controller mounts to the side of a 4 in. square junction box through a 1/2 in. conduit knockout, projects 93 mm from the box and meets the requirements of UL 2043. It measures 83 x 106 x 34 mm, uses 1 W at idle and operates from 0° to 40°C.

Questions about the Crestron ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A

What is the Crestron ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A-SW?

It is a Zūm wireless J-Box load controller with a high inrush switch, rated 20A at 100-277V. It mounts to a 4 in. square junction box, switches lighting loads using zero cross switching, and pairs with Zūm keypads and occupancy, vacancy and daylight sensors over Zūm Mesh.

Can the ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A-SW dim lights?

No. It is the switching model and has no 0-10V dimming leads, which are only fitted to the -LV models. For 0-10V dimming, the ZUMMESH-JBOX-16A-LV provides 16A dimming of LED drivers or 4-wire fluorescent ballasts. The ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A-PLUG is the 20A model for plug loads.

What loads can it switch?

Crestron lists LED, fluorescent ballast, incandescent, magnetic low-voltage, electronic low-voltage, neon/cold cathode and high-intensity discharge loads. The rating is 20A at 100-277VAC, 50/60 Hz, with high inrush, zero cross switching. Idle power consumption is 1 W.

What does the expansion port on the ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A-SW do?

It accepts an expansion accessory: a ZUMMESH-NETBRIDGE, sold separately, which provides Zūm Net wireless communications, or a ZUMMESH-CCO, which adds a low-voltage contact closure output for HVAC integration. Crestron lists a Zūm Net range of 50 ft (15 m) to a Zūm Net wireless gateway or the nearest Zūm Net mesh device.

How is it mounted?

It mounts to the side of a 4 in. square junction box through a 1/2 in. conduit knockout and projects 93 mm (3.66 in) from the box once fitted. The controller meets UL 2043 requirements, is 83 mm high, 106 mm wide and 34 mm deep, and operates from 0° to 40°C.

How much is the Crestron ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A?

Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A 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 ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A?

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A 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 ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A come with a warranty?

Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A 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 ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A 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 ZUMMESH-JBOX-20A 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.
