The Serial Modem Interface can be used to link to a vast array of devices within the Insteon ecosystem

Control switches, keypads, sensors, remotes, plugs, outlets, and more!

What does that mean? It just works

Scenarios

See some of the ways you can use the Serial Modem Interface
Access from anywhere

You’re at work and forgot to turn off the coffee maker. Open the controller app and switch it off instantly, saving energy and money

Voice Control

Waling into your home with your hands full, you can say, “Alexa, turn on the kitchen lights.” The lights come on without you needing to fumble for a switch.

Motion + Night = Light

Create detailed automations like only having an Insteon Motion Sensor turn on the stairway lights when it detects motion from bedtime to sunrise

Instant Alerts

While on vacation, you receive an alert that your water leak sensor detected moisture under the sink. You can immediately call a neighbor to check on it before serious damage occurs.

Essential info

Part of a Larger, Smarter Family

The Serial Modem Interface allows third-party software control over a whole host of Insteon devices - from sensors to remotes, from switches to keypads, from plugs to switched outlets, Insteon has your Connected Home needs covered.

Level-Up Your Connected Home Control

When using the third-party controller software or app, you get the flexibility and control to easily add new devices, link devices together in scenes, and set schedules. For even more convenience, use a smart assistant like Amazon Alexa or Google Home to control your Insteon devices with your voice.*

It’s OK to Dip Your Toe In

Unlike other traditional “smart” devices that are focused on controlling one device or maybe one room, Insteon is a whole-home solution. You can start small with manually linking a few devices then “go big” by outfitting your entire home with the Insteon ecosystem with the Serial Modem Interface with third-party controller software. Our solutions can easily scale right alongside you as your Connected Home needs grow.

It Just Works

Other connected home switches use Wi-Fi or other radio-only signals. Insteon utilizes a patented dual-band mesh technology that communicates over both existing power lines and a wireless radio for unparalleled reliability and range.

Peace of Mind

Rest assured, you can receive instant notifications on your smart phone when a sensor has detected water, motion, or a door/gate has been opened.

Got me working again

My PLM died so I ordered a replacement from Insteon.
The product works great and got all of my home automation working again.
This is the second time I have had to replace the PLM in 5 years but the room it is in is about 84 degrees so that may be why.
Still a great product and fast shipping

Works great and does what I need.

I appreciate that Insteon is selling its products again. I am hoping they will restore the full former product line.

First time PLM replacement

It’s been well over 10-years since we first installed the Insteon PLM for our ISY994i.

A few blackouts in a row (we’re on an island) seemed to indicate that our PLM was nearing end-of-life (needed to restore the PLM each time)

And so we replaced it .. ISY with the PLM is working great now through any sort of power outage 🌴

Insteon is back!

Plugged in the new PLM, and it started working right away with my ISY. There really isn't any other product out there that works like the Insteon. We've had many devices for 10+? years, and still going strong. We control our audio, lights, security, sauna, etc from this product line. Cheers to the new leadership.

Another great product from Insteon!

We recently replaced some older Insteon On/Off wall switches with Insteon dimmers and were amazed at how well they worked with LED bulbs. We had an accent lamp where a wall switch just wan’t practical, so we tried the plug-in dimmer. Again, it worked flawlessly with the LED bulb. Thank you for your continued support and improvements of Insteon devices.
