W-BACnet DIN rail
- Wireless BACnet for your electrical cabinet.
W-BACnet replaces the cabling with a reliable wireless mesh eliminating the time-consuming installation planning, cabling, daisy-chaining and troubleshooting. With W-BACnet, it is easy to retrofit connectivity to already installed devices, instantaneously converting individually siloed devices to a wireless network. The product enables flexibility, saving time and costs, including during installation and steady-state operation.
The W-BACnet acts as a proxy for the connected BACnet MSTP device, effectively extending the bus and creating the possibility to make legacy products wireless. A W-BACnet network consists of a single W-BACnet Gateway with up to 100 W-BACnet Nodes. Connect your BACnet MS/TP controller using RS485 to the W-BACnet Gateway, and then each of your BACnet MS/TP devices with RS485 to the W-BACnet nodes.
The W-BACnet product is built upon LumenRadio’s patented meshing technology MiraMesh - providing ultra-reliable device-to-device connectivity, easy installation, concurrent Bluetooth and extended indoor range. MiraMesh is used in a large number of different applications around the world for building automation, HVAC control, lighting control and industrial sensor networks.
Instant installation
Unique reliability
Baud rate agnostic
Long range
- Instant commissioning – 3 simple steps, commission the W-BACnet network in minutes.
- Mesh network – cover an entire building, utilizing the mesh network as your infrastructure.

The device is an “end device with internal terminal resistors”. Can this termination be switch off?
No it can not. Typical usage of the product is that the product is end of line.
