Networking & Connectivity for Security, Automation & DC Microgrids

The Networking & Connectivity collection brings together PoE switches, Active POE-Jack® in-wall nodes, Cat6e/Cat6A cabling and G.hn / IP-over-coax adapters so security and automation pros can build reliable networks even when new cabling isn’t practical. From full 48-port PoE++ cores and compact edge switches to powerline and Ethernet-over-coax bridges, this is the one place to design a modern, PoE-first infrastructure for Canadian projects.

What You’ll Find in Networking & Connectivity

• GRID PoE & PoE++ switches: Core, aggregation and edge switches with high PoE budgets for cameras, Wi-Fi, access control and Active POE-Jack® in-wall switches in DC microgrid designs.
• Active POE-Jack® convergent edge: In-wall PoE nodes, touch panels and HDMI extenders that collapse home-run cabling and move intelligence to the wall plate.
• Structured cabling: PoE-optimized Cat6e/Cat6A bulk cable plus slim Cat6A patch leads and colour-coded harness options for high-density racks.
• Comtrend G.hn networking: Powerline Ethernet and Ethernet-over-coax adapters that push Gigabit-class backhaul over existing electrical or coax runs where pulling new cable is difficult or disruptive.
• PoE injectors, splitters & USB adapters: Add PoE to non-PoE switches, convert PoE to 5V or 12V DC, or power tablets and USB-powered devices directly over Ethernet drops.
• Patch panels, keystones & tools: LED port-trace jacks, patch panels, fiber optics, cable combs and hand tools that keep pro installs tidy and serviceable.

Why Pros Use This Collection

• PoE-first infrastructure: Standardize on PoE and PoE++ for cameras, Wi-Fi, intercom, lighting and controls, with clear paths to DC microgrid designs.
• Work with the building you have: Use G.hn powerline and Ethernet-over-coax to extend IP backhaul to garages, suites and remote buildings without opening walls.
• Designed for security & automation: Throughput and reliability suited to surveillance, access control, AV-over-IP, point-of-sale and building automation traffic.
• Repeatable, documented SKUs: Build standard switch, cabling and adapter recipes so every deployment looks and behaves the same across sites.

Canadian Distribution Advantages

• Local inventory: Networking hardware and cabling stocked in Canada for predictable lead times and project scheduling.
• Pro-focused support: Design guidance, topology suggestions and post-install troubleshooting support for security, electrical and IT contractors.
• Straightforward purchasing: CAD pricing on stocked items, reduced cross-border friction and streamlined RMAs for professional buyers.

Whether you’re extending IP video to a detached shop, lighting up MDUs over coax, or building a full PoE/DC microgrid backbone for a commercial site, the Networking & Connectivity collection gives you the switches, edge devices, cabling and adapters you need to deliver fast, stable links and keep projects on schedule.
