i-Vu® XT Router
XT-RB
Network & Integration Device
The i-Vu® XT Router routes BACnet messages between the i-Vu building automation system backbone (BACnet/IP), and a subnetwork of i-Vu controllers (BACnet MS/TP and/ or BACnet ARCnet). It connects directly to the Ethernet LAN and provides the i-Vu web server with access to the entire i-Vu system.
The i-Vu XT Router also extends an i-Vu system, allowing individual BACnet MS/TP networks (with up to 60 controllers each), and BACnet ARCnet networks (with up to 99 controllers each), to be connected together via the i-Vu building automation system backbone.

BACnet Features
- Features end-to-end encrypted BACnet Secure Connect (BACnet/SC) routing between BACnet/SC hubs and the i-Vu system via BACnet/SC, an encrypted datalink layer specifically designed to meet the requirements, policies, and constraints of minimally-managed to professionally managed IP infrastructures
- Supports concurrent BACnet networks (BACnet/SC and non-BACnet/SC), allowing facilities to migrate to the BACnet/SC environment over time
- Includes two additional BACnet ports to support two simultaneous BACnet MS/TP networks (up to 60 controllers each) to simultaneously route and share data across a wide range of building subsystems
- Can serve as a BACnet Broadcast Management Device (BBMD) routing any BACnet broadcast messages directly to other BBMD devices on the BACnet network
- Supports BACnet Foreign Device Registration (FDR)
Hardware Features
- IPv6 and IPv4 networks are supported | 1000 BaseT speed
- Stateless auto-configuration of addresses (SLAAC), static IPv6 addressing, and DHCP IP addressing are supported
- Password protected Ethernet service port at 100 Mbps for system start-up and troubleshooting
- Web sever local access for properties such as network and alarm configuration, notification classes, etc.
- Capacitor-backed real-time clock keeps time in the event of power failure or network interruption for up to 3 days
System Benefits
- Connects seamlessly to the i-Vu building automation system
- Multiple serial communication ports to simultaneously route and share data across a wide range of building subsystems
