Tools You May Need
Step 1 — Choose a Location to Install
Reliability of Clear Connect wireless communication requires that the wireless processor be centrally-located and within a maximum distance of the specific wireless devices in the system. A maximum of 16 total wired and wireless processors can be on one system. Wireless processors must be mounted 5 ft (1.5 m) away from wireless interference sources like microwaves, Wireless Access Points (WAPs), etc. PoE wiring must be kept internal to the building. Do not run PoE wiring outdoors or install the processor in metallic enclosures.
Distances for Wireless Devices
Clear Connect Type A Devices (seeTouch keypads, Maestro dimmers, Pico wireless controls, Sivoia QS wireless shades, etc.)
- Each device must be within 30 ft (9 m) of a repeater or wireless processor.
- Repeaters can be spanned up to 60 ft (18 m) apart from other repeaters to create the network.
Clear Connect Type X Devices
- All devices associated with the wireless processor must be within a 75 ft (23 m) radius of the processor.
- There must be a minimum of two devices within 25 ft (7.6 m) of the wireless processor.
- Each Clear Connect Type X device should have two or more non-battery powered Type X devices within 25 ft (7.6 m) of another compatible Clear Connect Type X device. Using more than two devices is ideal for creating an ultra high-performance mesh network.

Step 4a — Installation using the Recess-Mount Adapter
Step 4b — Installation using the Junction Box Mount Adapter
Step 4c — Installation using the Shelf-Mount Adapter (P/N: L-SMNT-WH, sold separately)
- Hold the adapter to the wall in the desired location
- Using a pencil, mark the location of the screw holes
- If using drywall, prep for anchors
- Partially drive two (2) screws at least 1/4 in (6.3 mm) into the wall or the drywall anchors
- Feed right-angle connector of the 6 ft (1.8 m) Ethernet cable through the adapter BEFORE tightening screws
- Tighten screws
- Plug in Ethernet cable and attach processor to PoE-enabled network switch or PoE injector
- Attach processor to adapter
