Cisco announced its first Smart Connected Buildings solution, Cisco Network Building Mediator, aimed at reducing capital and operating expenditures.
Cisco Network Building Mediator provides architecture to allow building operation managers to monitor, measure and act on energy systems while adding renewable technologies such as solar, wind and fuel cells as well as energy-efficiency programmes such as automated demand-response programs to reduce capital and operating expenditures.
The mediator communicates southbound with building systems by using a variety of industry open-system protocols. It then converts the data to open XML/SOAP services which connect northbound to applications, utilities, enterprise management systems and cloud services
This represents the first emerging technology business unit incubated from Cisco's Globalisation Center East in Bangalore. The business unit integrates technologies from the acquisition of Santa Barbara, Calif.-based Richards-Zeta in January 2009 with its networking technology and concurrently develops software solutions for energy management.
Sandeep Vij, vice president and general manager, leads the team out of the Center, reporting to Marthin De Beer, senior vice president of the emerging technologies group.
Smart Connected Buildings is Cisco's latest emerging technology, which aims to enable sustainable energy reduction and the future-proofing of facilities by integrating new technologies that help deliver energy efficiency and environmental stewardship for Smart Connected Communities.
