{"product_id":"crestron-caen-2x1","title":"Crestron CAEN-2X1 – Automation Enclosure, 2-Module High x 1-Module Wide","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Crestron CAEN-2X1 is a wall-mount automation module enclosure sized for two module rows and one module column, providing a structured housing for CLX-series control modules, terminal blocks, and associated wiring in residential and light commercial Crestron installations. Constructed from 16-gauge galvanized steel, the enclosure separates high-voltage and low-voltage wiring into distinct compartments, meeting NEC requirements for combined installation. UL and C-UL Listed for North American installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CAEN-2X1 accommodates up to two rows of Crestron CLX-series lighting and shade control modules — including dimmers, switches, fan controllers, and motor controllers — along with their associated CAEN-BLOCK or CLT terminal blocks. Electrical knockouts on multiple sides allow flexible conduit or cable entry, and grounding block provisions are integrated into the backbox. A perforated grey steel vented front cover promotes convection cooling without active fans, keeping the enclosure passively cooled during normal operation. The backbox dimensions (23.50 in H x 14.38 in W x 4.00 in D) suit surface mounting inside mechanical rooms, closets, or behind panels in residential retrofit and new construction projects. For larger deployments requiring more module capacity, this enclosure is compatible with the CAEN-4X1 and CAEN-7X1 in the same product family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHolds 2 rows x 1 column of CLX-series automation modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate high-voltage and low-voltage compartments for NEC compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16-gauge galvanized steel backbox construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerforated vented front cover for passive convection cooling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple electrical knockouts for flexible conduit and cable entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated grounding block provisions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface or flush wall-mount installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUL Listed and C-UL Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResidential lighting and shade control module housing in equipment closets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight commercial CLX-series dimmer and switch module enclosures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetrofit installations replacing legacy load control panels with Crestron CLX modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew construction AV and automation rooms requiring organized module management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e CAEN-2X1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19.0 lb (8.62 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBackbox Height:\u003c\/strong\u003e 23.50 in (59.69 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBackbox Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.38 in (36.51 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBackbox Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.00 in (10.16 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16-gauge galvanized steel backbox; perforated grey steel vented front cover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Surface or flush wall-mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperating Temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHumidity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10%–90% RH non-condensing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e UL Listed, C-UL Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Which CLX modules are compatible with the CAEN-2X1?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The CAEN-2X1 supports the full CLX-series module lineup, including CLX-1DIM8, CLX-2DIM8, CLX-1FAN4, CLX-1MC4, and CLX-2DIMFLV8, along with their corresponding CLT terminal blocks and CAEN-BLOCK network termination accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can the CAEN-2X1 be combined with larger CAEN enclosures in the same installation?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. Multiple CAEN enclosures can be used throughout a residence or building as distributed control nodes. They do not stack physically, but they operate within the same Crestron control system via Cresnet or Ethernet wiring between enclosures and the main processor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is a power supply included with the CAEN-2X1?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: No. The CAEN-2X1 is an enclosure only.
