Control4 C4-EA3-V2

The Control4 C4‑EA3‑V2 combines home automation and entertainment into a single, elegant unit — perfect for homeowners who want to simplify wiring, reduce clutter, and unify control across devices. Instead of installing separate hubs for audio streaming, lighting control, climate management, and AV switching, the EA‑3 V2 integrates all functions: delivering high-resolution audio, managing lights and climate, controlling AV devices, locking doors — even linking blinds or smart sensors.

With three simultaneous audio outputs (HDMI, analog stereo, digital coax), it can stream music to multiple rooms from your local library or popular services — ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, or entertaining zones. The built-in music server plus support for AirPlay and major streaming platforms eliminates the need for extra streaming boxes. Installation is straightforward: PoE+ supplies both power and network through a single ethernet cable, and the compact, low-profile design fits behind a TV, projector, or inside a media cabinet.

For smart‑home setups, the EA‑3 V2 supports IP, infrared, serial, Zigbee and relay control — letting you automate lighting, blinds, door locks, climate, and more from a unified interface. Compared to using separate devices or third‑party hubs, the EA‑3 V2 offers tighter integration, reliable performance, and a clean, streamlined install. It’s especially valuable for new smart‑home builds or full-home retrofit projects where simplicity, reliability, and versatility matter.
