Ajax Hub 2 Plus White
Ajax Hub 2 Plus White – hub with four communication channels and photo verification
Ajax Hub 2 Plus is the central unit of an Ajax security system and acts as the hub connecting detectors, cameras, sirens and automation devices. Support for Ethernet, Wi-Fi and two micro-SIM cards for 2G, 3G and 4G LTE provides four independent communication channels. This delivers high operational reliability and helps ensure that alarms and events reach users and the alarm receiving centre.
Hub 2 Plus supports up to 200 wireless Ajax devices and up to 100 IP cameras or recording devices. In addition to Jeweller radio for alarms and commands, the Wings radio protocol transfers images from Ajax detectors with a camera, providing photo verification directly in the app.
Benefits
- Four communication channels: Ethernet, Wi-Fi and two micro-SIM cards supporting 2G/3G/4G LTE
- Capacity for up to 200 Ajax devices and up to 200 users
- Photo verification through the Wings protocol with series of 1–5 images
- Jeweller radio range up to 2,000 metres in open space
- Built-in rechargeable 3 Ah Li-ion battery providing up to 15 hours of operation during a power failure
- Alarm receiving centre transmission through SIA (DC-09), SurGard (Contact ID) and ADEMCO 685
High capacity for homes and businesses
Hub 2 Plus is designed for both private properties and professional installations with demanding security and availability requirements.
The system supports:
- Up to 200 wireless Ajax devices
- Up to 200 users
- Up to 25 security groups (areas)
- Up to 50 rooms
- Up to 64 automation scenarios
- Up to 100 IP cameras or recording devices
Within the total device capacity, up to 10 sirens or keypads with a built-in siren and up to 5 range extenders can be connected.
Four connection paths for maximum reliability
Hub 2 Plus can communicate through several independent connections simultaneously.
Connection options:
- Ethernet through RJ45 (8P8C), up to 100 Mbit/s
- Wi-Fi using an 802.11 b/g/n module
- Two micro-SIM slots supporting 2G, 3G and 4G LTE
If one connection fails, the system switches to the next available communication path.
Photo verification during an alarm
Hub 2 Plus supports Ajax detectors with a built-in camera. Images are transferred through Wings, a separate radio protocol from Jeweller, ensuring that image traffic does not compete with alarm communication.
This provides:
- Series of 1 to 5 images
- Resolution up to 640 × 480 pixels
- Delivery time up to 9 seconds
- Wings range up to 1,700 metres in open space
This makes it possible to determine quickly whether an alarm is genuine or false.
Surveillance-camera integration
In addition to Ajax camera detectors, Hub 2 Plus can display video from a wide range of IP cameras and recording systems directly in the Ajax app.
Ajax provides ready-made integrations for:
- EZVIZ
- Hikvision
- Safire
- Dahua
- Uniview
- Cameras and recorders supporting RTSP
The hub supports up to 100 cameras or recording devices.
Smart scenarios and automation
Built-in automation functions allow the Ajax system to be used for more than traditional intruder alarms. Up to 64 scenarios can be configured.
Examples include:
- Switching lighting on according to a schedule
- Activating lighting during an alarm
- Closing water valves when a leak is detected
- Opening garage doors
- Controlling relays and smart devices
- Activating functions using Ajax Button or SpaceControl
Automation allows security and property control to be combined in the same system.
Simple administration
Hub 2 Plus is administered through Ajax applications for both installers and users.
Applications:
- Ajax Security System for iOS and Android
- Ajax PRO for iOS and Android
- Ajax PRO Desktop for Windows
- Ajax PRO Desktop for macOS
Long range with Jeweller
Ajax uses encrypted Jeweller radio technology for communication between the hub and connected products. Communication is two-way and uses frequency hopping to resist interference, together with block encryption and a dynamic key.
- Range up to 2,000 metres in open space
- Polling interval adjustable from 12 to 300 seconds
- Support for up to 5 ReX or ReX 2 range extenders
- Potential coverage across several buildings and larger property areas
This makes Hub 2 Plus suitable for houses, offices, warehouses, farms and business sites.
Battery backup during a power failure
If the mains supply fails, the system continues to operate using the built-in backup battery.
- Built-in rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery, 3.7 V and 3 Ah
- Up to 15 hours of operation without mains power
The system continues monitoring the property during a power interruption.
Important to know
- The enclosure rating is IP20. The hub is intended for indoor installation in a dry environment.
- The approved operating temperature is −10 °C to +40 °C, with humidity up to 75%.
- Mobile connectivity requires micro-SIM cards purchased separately from a network operator.

PC & HiFi Örebro recommends
We recommend Hub 2 Plus when building an Ajax system that needs room to grow, for a large site divided into several areas, or when photo verification and redundant communication with an alarm receiving centre are required. Its main strength is the combination of four communication channels and high device capacity. For a smaller apartment or holiday home without photo verification and without a need for more than 100 devices, a simpler Ajax hub is more cost-effective. The IP20 enclosure means the hub must always be installed indoors in a dry environment.
