YWire has created the fastest, most future friendly and most cost effective networked control platform ever seen in our industry. At the heart of the Five Series™ controllers resides our Broadband over Powerline (BPL) technology that delivers network speeds of up to 200 Mbps. In contrast to narrow band technologies, BPL is capable of utilizing techniques found in broadband wireless transmission like OFDM, FEC and frequency hopping to create the most robust common carrier solution available. In an industry accustomed to device level speeds of around 78 kbps the Five Series™ is a quantum leap forward.
In a physical sense, the patent pending Five Series™ will fundamentally change commercial lighting control from an installed cost perspective. Our ability to communicate over a building's existing electrical infrastructure means that installation of the system is as simple as replacing one light switch with another. Easy installation coupled with distributed intelligence results in labor and material savings that could reach 50% to 80% when compared with traditional centralized solutions.
The Five Series™ re-uses existing infrastructures while delivering a technically superior energy conservation solution.
