Cisco Digital Ceiling

Digital Ceiling complex: intelligent network solutions for lighting of production premises

The solution Cisco Digital Ceiling opens a possibility of convergence of the engineering systems, including lighting, heating, cooling, the different sensors and mechanisms increasing efficiency and creating unique consumer perception. Any temperature and any illumination level indoors, personal security and comfort — the main pluses of this solution. Reduction of costs will become its considerable advantage also. A net prize — creation not of simply "smart", but connected, safe and manageable buildings.

• Possibilities of partner community. Community already consists of 15 partners, and their number continues to grow. Representatives of the partner organization Cisco, independent software developers and leaders in such areas as lighting systems, automation of buildings and the auxiliary systems enter it. Integrating all of them, Cisco creates system structure for open and safe communication, the new exchange of information exchange.
• Access to the exchange of information exchange facilitates mutual unit-to-unit compatibility, sensors and actuators and also increases efficiency of data exchange under the CoAP protocol (the standardized internet protocol of things).
• "Smart" lighting: new network solutions from such leaders of the lighting industry as Cree, Phillips, etc.
• The optimized Cisco network includes the advanced switches supporting network systems of lighting and automation of buildings now. Besides, such functions as Perpetual Power over Ethernet (PoE), Fast Boot, Smart Install and program integration of sensors, the movement, illumination, temperature, humidity, etc. are implemented.

2016: Siemon joins community of partners of Cisco Digital Ceiling

The solutions Cisco Digital Ceiling promote integration of different services, used in the building that increases efficiency of its operation, reduces costs and gives unique opportunities to inhabitants and visitors of the building. In it direct link with the cable solutions Siemon ConvergeIT for intellectual buildings which provide creation of the general cable infrastructure for all types of low-current applications in the building is browsed. In combination with the ConvergeIT cable systems of the solution Cisco Digital Ceiling allow buildings to become not only "smart", but also safe, convenient in management and besides connected in a single network.

The solutions Cisco Digital Ceiling accelerate transition to digital technologies and develop the concept of Internet of Things (Internet of Things, IoT): in a whole different services of buildings, including lighting, management of temperature condition, applications of IP video, different IoT sensors and many other things integrate. And an integrated system becomes extremely the safe and intellectual network platform. In cable solutions of ConvergeIT of Siemon company for intellectual buildings the excellent quality inherent in Siemon company and advanced characteristics copper and fiber optical systems are combined. The uniform, integrated cable system supporting all necessary services of the building becomes result.

Crucial elements of the solutions Digital Ceiling are systems and devices using a power supply on Ethernet (Power over Ethernet, PoE). In addition, the list includes LED lighting on the basis of PoE technology. In combination with sensors it allows to reduce costs on the consumed energy on 85%. The ConvergeIT cable systems of Siemon company are suitable for implementation of the PoE applications, thanks to the fact that offer shielded copper cables and a switching equipment with the corresponding characteristics.
