Centralised facility control

The installation will enable the Park to centralise the control of facilities such as cooling, lighting, security and digital signage to voice and video communication.

Usually disparate building systems such as HVAC (High-voltage alternating current), lighting, transportation and energy management, as well as video and security access controls, will all now be integrated with Internet protocol-based communication systems such as e-mail, messaging, voice and productivity services to form an integrated control platform.
