Requirements for In-Wall Installations
To install the 5" or 7" Touch Screen, you need the following:
• Home Controller HC-200B, HC-300C, or HC-1000 V3 fully installed and
configured with a Control4® system.
• Control4 5" and 7" Touch Screen custom wall box installed. See "Wall Box Kit
Options" in this document.
• If using Ethernet with PoE power:
- An Ethernet network installed and available that includes a gateway/router/
switch.
- Control4 PoE Injector (model #AC-POE1-B) or another third-party PoE
Injector or switch (which are certified to UL/ANSI standards).
- Two (2) Ethernet CAT5 cables to support your PoE Injector: (1) one that runs
from the Ethernet gateway/router/switch to the PoE Injector/switch and (2)
one that runs from the PoE Injector/switch to the Ethernet Touch Screen wall
box.
• If using Ethernet with AC power:
- An Ethernet network installed and available that includes a gateway/router/
switch.
- Access to in-wall AC power (a neutral connection is required).
- One (1) Ethernet CAT5 cable that runs from the Ethernet gateway/router/
switch to the Touch Screen.
• If using wireless with AC power:
- Wireless network (WiFi 802.11 b/g) installed and available with a wireless
access point (WAP).
- Access to in-wall AC power (a neutral connection is required).
- A 14-gauge electrical wire long enough to pull between the Touch Screen
and the power source.
Placement, Network Connection, and Power
Options
Place the Touch Screen in a convenient location at eye level, typically near the
entrance of the room, approximately 57 to 61 inches from the floor (see Figure 1).

New Device
AC Power (unless using PoE)
This device uses an Ethernet or WiFi network connection, and can be powered
using PoE or AC power. Note: Do not attempt to use PoE and AC at the same time.
Option 1: Ethernet Connection with a PoE Injector or a
Third-Party Injector or Switch
PoE injects electrical current into the Ethernet cable using a PoE Injector (model
#AC-POE1-B) or a third-party PoE solution to provide the Touch Screen with power
and a network connection. The 5" and 7" Touch Screens work with the Control4
PoE Injector or a third-party PoE Injector. To set up your PoE and Ethernet
connection with a PoE Injector, see Figure 2.
Figure 2. Ethernet Model - Requires Ethernet Connection to PoE Injector
Place the PoE Injector near your gateway/router/switch. Pull the Ethernet cable
from that location to where you want to install the Touch Screen.
Option 2: Ethernet Connection with AC
No PoE Injector is needed for Ethernet with AC power; the Ethernet is connected
directly to the switch. This power connection requires both neutral and hot
connections (see Figure 3).

Option 3: WiFi Connection with AC
WiFi placement: Place the Touch Screen above a power source, for example, an
outlet. Ensure that you have WiFi in the home (see Figure 4).
