The key to modernizing your commercial lighting sustainably: Bluetooth NLC

HubSense, the wireless light management system, now features a higher standardization level: reliable and safe

At Inventronics, we’re always looking ahead and push the boundaries of innovation to provide trailblazing solutions for our customers. So today, we are even more excited to announce a significant upgrade: the entire HubSense portfolio is migrating from Bluetooth Mesh to Bluetooth Networked Lighting Control (NLC)! This shift is set to revolutionize how OEM luminaire manufacturers and system integrators approach lighting control, offering unparalleled standardization, reliability, and security.

Why Bluetooth NLC?
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) recently introduced the Bluetooth NLC protocol, a groundbreaking advancement towards the future of wireless lighting control. Unlike previous technologies, Bluetooth NLC is a full-stack standard, ensuring interoperability from the radio layer through to the device layer. This means that true multi-vendor interoperability and compatibility issues are now definitely a thing of the past!

Your benefits:

  • Standardization and interoperability: Embracing Bluetooth NLC means adopting a standardized solution continuously improved by expert committees. This ensures the protocol remains robust, reliable, providing real added value to end users. With Bluetooth NLC, you get multi-vendor interoperability, paving the way for mass adoption and futureproofing your investment.
  • The extra boost to security and reliability: Security is paramount in commercial settings. Bluetooth NLC offers you advanced security features for maximum protection against unauthorized access and utmost data integrity. Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a lighting control system that’s both robust and stable!
  • Intelligent network for smart buildings: Bluetooth NLC supports an intelligent network of sensor-rich, individually addressable luminaires and control devices. Each component can send and receive data, allowing for real-time adjustments and optimizations. This helps you reduce your energy usage, gives you better control over your lighting systems, and ensures that you enjoy an excellent user experience.

HubSense portfolio: the next generation
HubSense has always been one of the leaders in wireless lighting solutions, simply perfect for retrofitting or replacing obsolete systems. Now, with Bluetooth NLC, it’s even smarter: imagine upgrading an entire office building with minimal disruption or replacing outdated lighting in a retail space without the need for extensive rewiring. The transition from Qualified Bluetooth Mesh technology to Bluetooth NLC ensures energy savings, improved room occupant experience, and more efficient building operations. With this migration, our HubSense portfolio is taking a giant leap forward. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Product name change: Our products will transition from the QBM branding to B NLC, which then corresponds to the new protocol.
  • Updated EAN codes: Streamlined for easier inventory management and tracking.

Embrace the future of lighting control with HubSense powered by Bluetooth NLC and experience the difference it makes in your commercial projects!

We are rolling out the migration in phases: explore the table of available HubSense sensors:
