eQ-3 AG Homematic IP Multi IO Box HmIP-MIOB - Universal Control Unit

The Homematic IP Multi IO Box HmIP-MIOB from eQ-3 AG is a versatile universal control unit designed for smart home automation. It seamlessly integrates into the Homematic IP system, offering 8 digital inputs and 2 relay outputs for flexible control of various devices and sensors. Ideal for both DIN rail and wall mounting, this compact unit enables reliable monitoring and switching of electrical loads, enhancing your smart home setup.

Advantages

With its 8 potential-free digital inputs, the Multi IO Box can connect to switches, push buttons, or sensors, while the 2 relay outputs (configurable as normally open or normally closed) allow switching of loads up to 1 A at 24 V DC or 30 V AC. The device communicates via Homematic IP radio protocol (868 MHz) with AES encryption, ensuring secure and stable operation. Its low standby power consumption (<0.5 W) makes it energy-efficient.

Suitable for

• Smart home automation projects requiring integration of external sensors or actuators
• Controlling lighting, blinds, or heating systems via relay outputs
• Monitoring door/window contacts, motion detectors, or other potential-free switches
• Industrial or residential applications where DIN rail mounting is preferred
