GATEWAY CASAMBI

Engineering Wireless Lighting Networks

Casambi technology takes a fundamentally different approach from centralized control architectures. Instead of relying on centralized infrastructure, it distributes intelligence across the nodes in the network, creating a resilient and self-organizing system.

Casambi gateways complement this architecture by bridging the mesh network with external environments such as:

• IP networks and cloud platforms;

• building management systems (BMS);

• hybrid wired and wireless lighting infrastructures.

This allows engineers to retain the flexibility of wireless control while integrating it into larger system architectures.

From Local Control to System Integration

While Casambi networks can operate locally and be controlled through a smartphone or tablet, advanced projects often require centralized access, remote monitoring and diagnostics, and interaction with other building systems.

Through Ethernet or cloud connectivity, gateway solutions extend control beyond the local network, enabling remote control of lighting scenes, device-status monitoring, and integration with external automation logic.

This capability is particularly valuable in multi-site or large-scale projects, where direct access to each network is not always practical.

Supporting Hybrid Lighting Architectures

Modern lighting systems rarely rely on a single protocol. In many projects, wireless Casambi networks coexist with DALI, 0–10V, or other control technologies.

Casambi gateways facilitate integration between these technologies, enabling communication and coordination across different subsystems. For example, through an appropriate gateway, a building management system can trigger lighting scenes within a Casambi network or retrieve data from connected sensors and devices.

This role makes the gateway a key component in hybrid architectures, helping preserve flexibility and scalability while maintaining system consistency.

Designed for Scalable and Distributed Systems

Casambi systems can scale from single-room installations to large buildings through self-organizing mesh networks and multi-network architectures.

Gateway-enabled architectures build on this scalability by supporting:

• Connection of multiple networks

• Remote access across distributed locations

• Integration into centralized control systems

In this way, engineers can design distributed lighting systems that remain easy to manage and adaptable over time.
