Austin, TX – Several years ago industry experts predicted sustainability and energy efficiency would redefine the landscape of new commercial building lighting installations. Now due to COVID 19’s impact on real estate market conditions commercial buildings need to offer digital age amenities to attract tenants and their employees. To thrive in the new future of commercial real estate facility owners and developers need a cost-effective way to incorporate connected lighting and automation with advanced technology amenities to new and existing buildings.
Enter Denton Digital Building Intelligence.
The Power Over Ethernet experts at PoE Texas have created a comprehensive connected lighting and automation controls platform based on Power Over Ethernet technology for enterprise facilities called Denton Digital Building Intelligence or Denton DBI. Far more than a lighting control system Denton DBI utilizes Power Over Ethernet to create a full facility automation platform on an Internet Protocol (IP) network.
What is Power Over Ethernet?
In high level terms Power over Ethernet or PoE is a technology developed in the early 2000’s that combines inherently safe DC power with IP network communication. For many years security, phone, and WiFi systems operated on PoE networks. It has a proven track record as a reliable and secure technology.
In 2018 new PoE standards increased the power it combines with data to allow it to power lights, blinds, door locks, and a myriad of other IoT devices. Now everything above the desktop can operate on a PoE network.
The Fully Connected Lighting and Automation Control Platform.
Denton Digital Building Intelligence (DBI) is far more than a PoE lighting system. Denton DBI is a full building automation platform that:
- Leverages a PoE network to manage new or existing 120-277 volt AC circuits and phase dimming light fixtures to meet ANY energy code both now and in the future including ASHRAE and Title 24 and their derivative requirements
- Converts PoE for non-PoE devices including access control, sensors, cameras, tablets, digital signage, and, yes, LED lighting
- Integrates with the latest IoT devices whether they be PoE, Enocean, Zigbee, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi
- Communicates and bridges DMX universes for advanced theater quality lighting controls
- Provides an open standards-based interface through a RESTFUL API to network applications – the same standard used by all web page applications
- Offers retrofittable two wire low voltage automation so you can keep the wiring in the walls while still getting the most advanced automation control
- Operates on a secure managed digital backbone using Power Over Ethernet that can integrate the next twenty years of technology
Why Choose PoE for Connected Lighting and Automation?
PoE Texas’ Denton DBI delivers the highest value Connected Lighting and Automation system for intelligent buildings today, and in the future. When compared to an equally featured system Denton Digital Building Intelligence will save on average 30% on Capital Expenditures, reduce Operating Expenses by 15-45%, and have a less than 36 month Return on Investment. How? The savings comes from eliminating redundant infrastructure such as power cabling, sensors with their own wiring, and unnecessary conduit; faster install times; and advanced controls methods to reduce energy consumption.
More importantly, though, because Denton DBI is built on an IP network, it also forms a powerful platform on which to integrate new advanced technology. Whether you need asset tracking, space utilization, or return-to-work solutions, the technology path all converges onto IP networks. Futureproofing through PoE connected infrastructure means you can incorporate the next generation of amenities using the same system you have today.
