- Paradox RPT1PLUS-BBX Magellan Wireless Repeater Module (433MHz) Paradox RPT1PLUS-BBX Magellan Wireless Repeater Module (433MHz)
- Description
The Paradox RPT1PLUS-BBX (RPT1+) is a high-performance wireless repeater module designed to extend the signal coverage range of Paradox Magellan wireless systems and expansion modules. Operating on the 433 MHz RF frequency, it receives, boosts, and retransmits wireless signals from motion detectors, door contacts, remote controls, and keypads to ensure reliable communication across large residential properties, sprawling commercial buildings, or structures with heavy signal-blocking obstacles.
Engineered with dual-way transceiver technology, the RPT1PLUS-BBX supervises battery status, signal strength, and tamper conditions for all assigned wireless devices. It features an integrated 12 VDC power input terminal, 1 on-board programmable output (PGM), and 1 hardwired transmitter input. Supplied as a standalone module without a power supply, it connects to an external 16.5 VAC transformer and a 12 VDC backup battery to maintain continuous operation during power outages.
Key System Features & Functionality
-
RF Coverage Extension: Extends the range of Paradox 433 MHz wireless transmitters, keypads, and remotes, overcoming range limitations and structural obstacles.
-
Bidirectional Transceiver Technology: Supervises and retransmits signals bidirectionally between wireless zone devices and the main control panel.
-
On-Board Input & Output: Features 1 hardwired zone input (transmits as a wireless zone) and 1 on-board programmable output (PGM relay).
-
Signal Strength Supervision: Built-in LED indicators display real-time RF signal strength and transmission activity to assist in optimal placement.
-
Power Management & Battery Backup: Requires an external power supply/transformer; features dedicated charging circuitry for a 12 VDC rechargeable backup battery.
-
Multi-Repeater Support: Supports up to 2 RPT1PLUS repeaters per Magellan control panel or RTX3 expansion receiver module for extended layout coverage.
