Siemon, a leading global network infrastructure specialist, is pleased to announce a new educational webcast covering the role of Power over Ethernet (PoE) LED lighting and a unified network infrastructure within today’s digital buildings. The webcast titled Design and Cost Considerations for Digital Buildings will be presented by experts from Cisco’s Digital Building Partners Siemon and Innovative Lighting, as well as Hepta Control System, and broadcast by Cabling Installation & Maintenance on April 6, 2017 at 1 p.m. EDT.
The devices and fixtures inside digital buildings feature advanced, embedded sensors that gather critical information about a building space. Because they’re connected on a single IP network, these systems can be integrated to provide new levels of digital building intelligence and analytics for more informed decisions that help save operating expenses. The hour-long webcast will cover what truly makes an intelligent digital building and how it comes together with PoE LED lighting and a unified network infrastructure to drive new experiences and better business outcomes for maximum profitability.
“A key part of the digital building includes systems and devices powered by network switches using PoE, including PoE-powered LED lights,” said Bob Allan, Siemon’s global business development manager for intelligent buildings. “To provide superior support of these PoE-enabled systems, Siemon’s ConvergeIT Cabling Solutions for Intelligent Buildings combines Siemon’s proven quality with advanced cabling technology, such as Siemon’s copper shielded cables and connectivity. Siemon remains committed to the digital transformation of buildings to improve overall building control, management and security.”
The webcast will also discuss the latest trends, benefits and value proposition surrounding digital buildings, including best integration practices, PoE lighting advantages, and cost-effective zone cabling and coverage area planning. Presentations for this webcast include:
- Demystifying PoE Lighting and How it is Changing Everything, presented by Wendell Strong, PoE Lighting Solutions Manager, Innovative Lighting
- Systems Integration, Open Technologies and Building Analytics for a True Digital Building, presented by Jason Houck, Chief Information Officer, Hepta Control Systems
- Zone Cabling and Coverage Area Planning for PoE Lighting and the Digital Building, presented by Valerie Maguire, Global Sales Engineer, Siemon
