What is KNX?
KNX is the worldwide open standard for smart buildings. Switches, sensors, dimmers, blinds, heating and cooling all talk over one green bus cable, so a keypad can control lights, shades and climate at the same time. Hundreds of manufacturers make KNX products and they all work together, so you are never tied to one brand.
Who programs the system?
KNX devices are set up with the ETS software. Smart Building Solutions can plan and program the whole system for you, or work with your own integrator. Tell us about your project on the contact us page.
Will it pass inspection in my area?
Some products carry UL or ETL marks and others do not. The product page and your quote show what applies. Please check with your local inspector (AHJ) before you order, and ask us if you need the certificates or data sheets.
