The Hybrid Low-Voltage Retrofit

Upgrade to smart PoE infrastructure without replacing your existing wiring. Our non-invasive retrofit integrates a smart PoE nervous system into your current building—minimizing disruption, construction time, and cost.

One Building. Two Specialized Systems.

High-voltage infrastructure continues to power high-demand equipment, while a new PoE network supports lighting, sensors, and intelligent room controls.

How It Works: The Brain Behind the Room

See how Edge AI, the Room Control Unit, and low-voltage controls work together to automate each room—without replacing the existing high-voltage system.

Step 1: True Occupancy Detection

Vision and infrared sensors use 100% local Edge AI to accurately detect whether a room is occupied—without sending data to the cloud.

Step 2: The PoE Room Control Unit

The concealed Room Control Unit receives sensor data and acts as the room’s intelligent hub, making real-time control decisions locally.

Step 3: Low Voltage Controls High Voltage

The RCU sends low-voltage commands to relay modules, automatically adjusting HVAC and lighting connected to the existing high-voltage system.

The Retrofit Difference: Traditional vs. PoE

Traditional 110V Retrofit

Our PoE Retrofit

Labor Requires licensed electricians, typically costing $150–$200 per hour. Uses qualified low-voltage installers for a more cost-efficient deployment.
Permitting Often requires time-consuming electrical permits and inspections. Class 2 low-voltage work may reduce permitting requirements, depending on local regulations.
Disruption Requires opening walls and ceilings, creating dust, noise, and extensive repairs. Uses existing pathways, ceiling spaces, and baseboards with minimal structural disruption.
Downtime May require closing entire floors for weeks or even months. Completed room by room, allowing unaffected areas to remain operational.
Seamless Ecosystem Integration

Built to Work With Your Existing Systems

  • PMS Integration

    Connect With Your Hotel PMS

    Compatible with leading property management systems such as Oracle OPERA, StayNTouch, and Cloudbeds. When a guest checks in, the RCU can automatically activate the room’s welcome settings.

  • Voice Control

    Connect With Leading Voice Assistants

    Integrates with Amazon Alexa for Hospitality and Google Home to provide convenient voice control within the room.

  • Open Protocols

    Ready for Future Expansion

    Support for standard Bluetooth Mesh and MQTT protocols provides greater flexibility for future devices, integrations, and system upgrades.
