Somfy SDN Power over Ethernet (PoE) Gateway
The SDN PoE Gateway bridges Power over Ethernet motors and devices onto a Somfy Digital Network system, letting PoE-powered Sonesse motors share the same SDN commissioning and control ecosystem as RS485 motors.

Common questions
What does the SDN PoE Gateway (1860326) do?
It powers and controls Somfy 24V RS485 shade and drapery motors from one Power over Ethernet connection. A standard Cat 5e or Cat 6 UTP cable carries both power and data to the gateway, which then feeds the motors.
Which motors work with this gateway?
Somfy lists its low-voltage RS485 motors, including the Sonesse 30 RS485 DC and Sonesse 50 Ultra DC RS485. In this store that means the Sonesse 30 RS485 24V DC (1241144) and the Sonesse Ultra 50 504A8 RS485 24V DC Motor (1134022).
How many motors can one gateway run?
One gateway runs up to 4 low-voltage RS485 motors. Somfy limits aligned operation to 2 motors with the Sonesse 30 RS485 DC, and motors in a group move in cascade. Each motor holds up to 16 intermediate positions.
What PoE power does the gateway need?
The gateway takes 48V PoE and complies with IEEE 802.3bt and Cisco UPoE. Somfy rates it to deliver up to 51W to the motors, with 3W operating consumption and 0.5W on standby.
How far can the motors sit from the gateway?
Keep the total wiring from the gateway to all motors at 240 ft or less with SDN Low-Voltage Motor Cable. The store carries that cable in non-plenum (9020126) and plenum-rated (9020127) versions. A 4-pin Weidmueller adaptor cable comes with the gateway.
What warranty and listings does it carry?
Somfy backs the gateway with a 5-year warranty. It is listed to UL 2108 and UL 1310, and the network cable can follow either the ANSI/TIA/EIA 568 A or 568 B wiring standard.
