Introduction

The GW BMS 02 02R is an advanced BACnet Router designed to support modern and scalable Building Management Systems (BMS). It intelligently connects BACnet MS/TP, BACnet IP, and BACnet Ethernet network segments, enabling seamless communication across different physical network layers without protocol translation. This capability distinguishes it from basic protocol converters and makes it ideal for large and complex BACnet installations, improving overall network performance through efficient traffic routing and segmentation.

Engineered for ease of commissioning and reliable operation, the GW BMS 02 02R supports auto-discovery of downstream BACnet MS/TP devices and requires no configuration file, significantly reducing setup time. It allows BACnet IP supervisory systems to discover, monitor, and control connected field devices—such as VAV and other BACnet controllers—as part of a unified BACnet system. With web-based configuration, BBMD, and Foreign Device Registration (FDR) support, the GW BMS 02 02R provides essential tools for advanced BACnet network management across multiple subnets.
