What to Consider When Embracing LLLC Wireless Solutions
BetterBricks, a commercial building initiative of the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance, recently published a 10-page guide to educate building owners, lighting designers, and the broader lighting supply chain about what to consider if going wireless with a system such as Luminaire Level Lighting Controls (LLLC) in a business setting.
Some of the questions to ask include:
- Does this system require a gateway for desired capabilities?
- What is the rated battery life for the wireless devices and does the system offer low-battery alerts?
- What is your team’s preference for maintaining a system based on wireless protocols (e.g., remote control, app-based device, push ‘n connect)?
- What cybersecurity credentials or certificates do you require?
- What requirements are in place for other platforms connected to the building management system?
