Inferrix Smart Sustainable Lighting
Robust wireless lighting control based on a highly scalable mesh network, simple to deploy and intelligent at the edge. Inferrix Smart Lighting delivers lower energy use, lower embedded carbon and a digital ceiling that is ready for every smart building service.
Lighting is everywhere in your building. Inferrix turns it into an always on wireless infrastructure that manages light levels, cuts energy, improves comfort and carries data for a wide range of IoT and wireless BMS services.
From cabled controls to a wireless digital ceiling
Traditional cabled lighting controls add complexity, embedded carbon and cost when layouts change. Inferrix Smart Lighting replaces this with a wireless mesh based architecture that is easier to deploy, easier to reconfigure and ready to host smart building services on top of your lighting grid.:contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
Smart, sustainable lighting
Fine grained control of on, off and dimming across indoor and outdoor luminaires. Wireless occupancy and lux sensors drive only the light you need, when you need it.:contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
- Task appropriate light levels
- Dimming profiles by time, zone and use
- Automatic setbacks in unoccupied areas
Lower carbon footprint
Wireless control removes a large portion of control cabling and associated embodied carbon, while ongoing efficiency savings cut operational emissions for the life of the building.:contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}
- Less copper and PVC in the building
- Rapid reconfiguration without rewiring
- Aligned with ESG and net zero goals
Always on wireless mesh
Every Inferrix controller becomes a router in a self healing mesh, creating a resilient wireless backbone that can host additional IoT sensors and actuators without needing client Wi Fi.:contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}
- Decentralised decision making at the edge
- Scalable to very large installations
- Secure, IPv6 ready and AES 128 encrypted
Lighting that becomes a platform
Inferrix Smart Lighting is more than sensor based on, off and dimming. It turns lighting into a digital ceiling that carries smart services across the building, with no recurring charge for the wireless mesh itself.:contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}
Hospitals and healthcare
In hospitals, a smart lighting mesh provides the wireless infrastructure for clinical and operational use cases on top of energy saving lighting control.:contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}
- Nurse call and presence
- Asset tracking for beds, trolleys and equipment
- Smart washrooms and waste monitoring
- Energy and wireless BMS for critical areas
Offices and campuses
In commercial buildings, the same mesh supports smart office features such as occupancy analytics, environmental monitoring, space utilisation and wireless BMS alongside lighting control.
- Occupancy and booking integration
- Workplace comfort and air quality monitoring
- Portfolio wide energy and performance dashboards
Warehouses, parking and industry
High bay, car park and industrial lighting are upgraded to intelligent, sensor driven systems that also support tracking, safety and environment use cases.
- Zone based high bay dimming and daylight harvesting
- Outdoor and parking lighting with presence based control
- Extended coverage for industrial IoT sensors
