Improved Range and Operational Reliability with Plaid Mesh

Plejd Extender 2xIN BAT Mesh BT (EXT-01) is a powerful device that extends the range of the Plejd mesh network by acting as a wireless bridge between devices.

It helps to ensure stable communication within the system, making it perfect for larger installations where the distance between units can be a challenge.

Thanks to it integrated battery backup (BAT-01) can time functions such as astro clock and other time-controlled settings continue to function even during a power outage.

This makes the EXT-01 an important component in smart lighting installations where reliability is crucial.

Wireless Control with Multiple Inputs

Plejd Extender can also function as a control module for other Plejd devices through its two separate inputs. This makes it possible to connect:

• Spring-loaded push buttons
• Traffic guards
• Rotary adapter (RTR)

These features make it easy to adapt lighting control as needed and create a flexible, smart lighting solution.

Easy and Versatile Installation

EXT-01 is designed to be easy to install and can be mounted in several ways:

• In the device box – Behind a push button or box lid.
• On the wall – For discreet placement.
• On DIN rail – Using the Mounting Clip (MNT-01, not included).

The compact design (46x46x18 mm) makes it easy to place in tight spaces, and it low standby power of only 0.2 W ensures energy-efficient operation.

Product Features and Benefits

• Extends the reach in Plaid mesh – Perfect for larger properties.
• Integrated battery backup (BAT-01) – Ensures time functions in the event of a power outage.
• Two inputs for wireless control – Connect push buttons, motion sensors or rotary adapters.
• Smooth installation – Can be mounted in a junction box, on a wall or on a DIN rail.
• Energy efficient – Standby power of only 0.2 W.
• Stable wireless communication – 2.4 GHz mesh and Bluetooth®.
• Radio range of about 10 meters indoors – Expands and stabilizes the network.

Installation and Use

Installation is simple and does not require any advanced configuration:

1. Place EXT-01 in a junction box, on a wall or on a DIN rail.
2. Connect the power supply (230V AC, 50 Hz, max 0.02 A).
3. Connect optional push buttons or other inputs (for example, motion sensor or rotary adapter).
4. Configure the device in the Plejd app and customize the functions as needed.

EXT-01 will then automatically start extend the range and communicate with other Plejd devices in the system.
