OUR SOLUTIONS

Making Smart Simple

All smart buildings have three interconnected levels in common. They capture data, they communicate the data, they optimise based on the data.

Level One

Converged Networks

High speed networks lays the ground work for the performance, monitoring and communication needs of all interconnected systems and devices in a smart building. The single network concept replaces the traditional ‘siloed’ multi-network approach of previous construction projects. A range of converged networks reduces install and operational costs by up to 65%; enables high speed, feature rich communication networks, buildings and spaces; and future proofs them for new technologies.

Level Two

Connected Components

We are living in a connected world with an ever increasing number of connected devices. Advances in technology and the Internet of Things (IoE) are transforming buildings – enabling better communication between devices, individuals and the building. For example, facility managers can access a range of devices, such as CCTV, lighting, HVAC, security and access control, all in the one place. Similarly, previously siloed devices can interact and control each other.

Level Three

Advanced Analytics

Centralised control systems gather data from a multitude of devices throughout a building to learn about the usage and needs of the occupants and to make better decisions to improve building energy consumption and occupant wellness. For example, interconnected HVAC systems can be monitored and adjusted using advanced analytics to improve air quality and energy efficiency on a micro-scale, leading to enhanced ‘green’ ratings for buildings and healthier occupants.
