Extreme Range Outdoor Bluetooth SIG Compliant Mesh Controller
The controller is the first Bluetooth NLC certified long-range device, engineered for optimal performance over long distances (>1000 ft) to create a more robust mesh network. The device is also DALI D4i-certified and Zhaga Book 18 compliant to maximize plug-and-play interoperability across lighting systems.
Indoor Bluetooth NLC ZBD Sensor-Controller
Bluetooth NLC-certified, this sensor controller supports multiple standards for interoperability (DALI D4i-certified, Zhaga Book 20 compliant) in a form factor designed for luminaire level lighting control (LLLC). It offers occupancy detection, daylight harvesting, and grouping for flexibility in interior application layouts.
Dual Tech ceiling mounted wireless mesh sensor
An industry-first, this dual tech occupancy sensor is also Bluetooth NLC certified for wireless mesh applications.
