LynTec Extends Native BACnet Protocol Support to LCP Lighting Control Panels and Simplifies Setup

LynTec, a leading manufacturer of innovative electrical power control solutions for professional audio, video, and lighting (AVL) systems, today announced its new LCP Lighting Control Panel Series and RPC Power Control now feature simplified native support for the Building Automation and Control network (BACnet) communication protocol. Featuring the internationally recognized Square D G3 Powerlink™ controllable circuit breaker platform, LynTec solutions can be integrated more quickly and easily into a building automation system employing this open communication standard, saving extensive time and labor on the installation.

"In 2015 we introduced BACnet interoperability into our popular and award-winning RPC breaker panels. This paved the way for building owners who wanted to use our reliable power control solutions for their lighting systems to incorporate them into their existing building automation systems and reduce operating costs," said Mark Bishop, president of LynTec. "As we've continued to deliver new power control products tailored to the increasing needs of the lighting market, we wanted to make it nearly effortless for commercial architectural lighting designers and integrators to set up our lighting control panels into building automation systems. Now they can fully integrate them in a matter of hours — rather than days — and without hiring third-party specialists."

VuWall Introduces PAK, a Scalable and Cost-Effective Video Wall-Over-IP Solution

VuWall, a technology leader in video wall control systems and unified visualization solutions, is launching PAK™, an innovative solution for deploying and managing modular video walls in AV-over-IP environments. PAK is a networked, multidecode node that can operate as a stand-alone device or be stitched with other nodes to build an IP-based video wall that is infinitely scalable. It simplifies video wall project deployments by reducing the number of connections and eliminating a single point of failure, reducing project risk, and offering improved reliability.

"If we peek behind many of today's video walls, we'd expect to see an incredible amount of expensive hardware and lengthy cable runs snaking from an overcrowded rack that takes many labor hours to deploy," said Mark Schmidt, chief technology officer of VuWall. "Unlike traditional video wall systems, it's extremely easy to build video walls with PAK. Whether large or small, all that's required are PAK appliances. To increase the size of a video wall, simply add a PAK. The only spare component needed to keep in stock is the PAK, reducing inventory costs and project complexity."
