FAQs
What is the maximum number of devices that can be connected to Hub BP Jeweller?
Hub BP Jeweller supports up to 100 wireless Ajax devices, allowing comprehensive coverage for both residential and commercial properties.
How long does the hub operate on battery power?
With an internal non-rechargeable battery (7.2V/95Ah), the hub operates for approximately 23 months in standard mode. In Battery power saver mode, operation extends to 46 months. External zinc-air batteries can provide even longer operation times, with some models lasting up to 69 months.
Does Hub BP Jeweller support photo verification?
Yes, the hub supports photo verification through MotionCam and MotionCam Outdoor detectors. When triggered, these detectors capture a series of images transmitted via the Wings protocol, with the first photo delivered in 9 seconds.
What happens if one SIM card loses connection?
Hub BP Jeweller features dual SIM card slots with automatic failover. If one network operator becomes unavailable, the hub automatically switches to the other SIM card and notifies users and the monitoring station of the change.
Can I use external antennas with this hub?
Yes, Hub BP Jeweller includes SMA female connectors for external antennas on all three communication channels: cellular (LTE), Jeweller, and Wings. This is particularly useful for installations in areas with weak signal strength or where the hub is located inside metal structures.
What is the Battery power saver mode?
Battery power saver mode is an advanced feature that extends battery life by adjusting polling intervals and disabling certain functions. Device polling occurs every 5 minutes, server polling every 6 hours, and LED backlight is disabled, significantly reducing power consumption.
How is the hub protected against jamming attempts?
When a jamming attempt is detected, the system automatically switches to an idle radio frequency and sends notifications to both the monitoring station and system users, ensuring security is maintained even during interference attempts.
Can Hub BP Jeweller connect to video surveillance systems?
Yes, the hub is compatible with Ajax cameras and NVRs, as well as third-party cameras supporting RTSP protocol or SDK integration. It can support up to 492 standalone Ajax cameras or up to 224 cameras via Ajax NVRs.
What certifications does Hub BP Jeweller hold?
Hub BP Jeweller is certified to Grade 2 standards including EN 50131, PD 6662:2017, and NIST (AES-128), making it suitable for professional security installations and insurance-grade requirements.
How do I reset the hub to factory settings?
To reset Hub BP Jeweller: turn on the hub, remove all users and installers, hold the power button for 30 seconds until the LED indicator starts blinking red, then remove the hub from your account.
What types of batteries are recommended for Hub BP Jeweller?
Ajax recommends zinc-air alkaline batteries for extended battery life. Before connecting, remove the stickers or open the air shutoff valves and leave the battery with access to air for 2 hours. Popular models include Cegasa eZ8 12/600 (18 months standard / 69 months power saver) and Masterbattery MC-ZA1200-7.5 (19 months standard / 42 months power saver).
