LEDCET Control Suite is an intelligent, self-tuning, power over ethernet (PoE), networked lighting control (NLC) solution. Incorporating smart devices and software, LEDCET powers, controls and monitors lighting that conforms to individual needs, while simultaneously enhancing utilization and lowering overall energy consumption.
Specifically, the suite is comprised of five interconnected hardware components — a PoE switch, a driver, a multifunctional sensor, a wall switch and a server — in addition to manager software available in both web and mobile formats. By utilizing the latest PoE technology, LEDCET Control Suite provides both power and data connectivity to lighting control components.
Processes and analyzes all data locally with an intelligent, IoT-enabled controller and driver powered by a micro-processing unit. Harvests daylight and detects occupancy — whether static or in motion — with a sophisticated, multifunctional sensor that can provide intelligent, real-time screening to gather and analyze data for optimal and ideal lighting.
The Suite is easily deployed with any star topology network infrastructure, and its interoperability enables it to work with any network switch that supports PoE technology. Plus, LEDCET is also compatible with any third-party LED lighting fixture and can be implemented in either upcoming lighting installations or existing LED lighting fixtures in renovation or upgrade situations.
At the heart of the LEDCET Control Suite is the LEDCET server, which is directly connected with the PoE switch via a single CAT5e cable (or higher) using a dedicated RJ-45 input port to transmit power and data.
Once all LEDCET Control Suite devices are properly connected, the LEDCET and PEO LED Driver obtains IP addresses from DHCP under the designated VLAN, and the devices are verified and configured by the server. Then, the LEDCET will establish a secure connection with and supply power to the connected LED lighting fixture, as well as the Sensor and POE Switch. At the same time, each Driver powers its connected LED light fixture. At this point, all LEDCET Control Suite devices are now discovered, registered and displayed in the Manager application.
