Peter Rake, Chief Product Owner at Switch Automation on buildings' digital readiness and Switch Automation's digital device discovery tool Dx3

By Ken Sinclair | Automated Buildings | January 1, 2020

The first step to deploying a successful digital facilities management program is knowing what sensors and systems are connected in your building. Switch Dx³ uses an IoT gateway that connects to, and integrates with, existing building automation systems (BAS) such as HVAC, lighting, metering, cameras and access control. An easy-to-interpret dashboard displays connected and compatible devices on the building network and highlights if the right integration ports are open (e.g. BACnet/IP) along with potential vulnerabilities in those systems. Once you know the connectivity status of your buildings you can either take steps to upgrade sensors and systems or begin pulling in data to perform predictive analytics to optimize building performance.
