clearNET Wireless Mesh Lighting Control
Zone dimming, fault monitoring, and energy analytics over a secure 900 MHz sub-GHz mesh network — long-range, low-interference, no new wiring required.
Intelligent Control Without New Wiring
clearNET is a wireless mesh networking platform that transforms individual fixtures into an intelligent, centrally managed lighting system. With 250+ node capacity and AES-128 encryption, clearNET delivers enterprise-grade control for transit networks, tunnel systems, and large facilities — retrofitting onto existing infrastructure without pulling a single new wire.
- Self-healing mesh topology — network routes around failed nodes automatically
- Zone-based dimming and scheduling across unlimited logical groups
- Real-time fault detection with fixture-level diagnostics and alerting
- DALI and 0-10V compatibility — integrates with existing building management systems
- Energy monitoring dashboard with per-fixture and per-zone consumption data

Features & Benefits
Self-Healing Mesh Topology
Nodes automatically discover alternate routes when a device goes offline. No single point of failure — the network adapts in real time to maintain full coverage.
Zone-Based Dimming
Group fixtures into unlimited logical zones. Set independent dimming schedules, daylight harvesting curves, and event-triggered scenes per zone or per fixture.
Real-Time Fault Detection
Fixture-level diagnostics identify driver failures, lumen depreciation, and communication drops. Automated alerts enable predictive maintenance before outages affect service.
Energy Monitoring Dashboard
Web-based dashboard tracks per-fixture and per-zone energy consumption in real time. Export data for utility rebate applications and sustainability reporting.
AES-128 Encryption
All wireless communication is encrypted end-to-end with AES-128. Meets federal cybersecurity requirements for transit and government facility deployments.
BMS Integration
Native BACnet, Modbus, and REST API support. Integrates directly with existing building management and SCADA systems without middleware or protocol converters.
Applications
clearNET manages lighting networks from single-building installations to city-wide transit systems.
