Your Building Should Think The Way You Do.
Today’s buildings must be flexible, efficient, and cost-effective to accommodate a
variety of lifestyles, and a fast-paced, always-changing workplace. Users want
building environments that adapt to their needs—from IT capabilities to room
temperature—plus access to concierge level services. Owners need the flexibility
to accommodate the changing user and tenant requirements, while control
operating costs by efficiently managing lights, HVAC, and security. Operators must
have access to building operations on premise and remotely, with a flexible, easyto-
use system. The goal is to find support for a range of activities and preferences,
while managing costs and increasing revenues.
It’s a tall order for any building—new or existing. Wiring and facility changes can be expensive, and adding new services often
requires a complete overhaul of existing infrastructure. In the past, property owners have had to choose between the users’
need for comfort and convenience and their own profitability goals.
There’s a new way of supporting the changing needs of buildings, and the people in them. A cost-effective approach to adding
services while managing costs. An innovative, new technology solution that will allow real estate ventures to use existing
wiring and facilities to deliver flexible, personalized and affordable services that will differentiate their property, cut costs and
generate new revenue, while offering unprecedented levels of comfort and convenience.
Nevotek IPTComfort. Delivering cost-effective, convenient convergence.
Start with an IP-based network that provides the platform for convergence. Then, add Nevotek IPTComfort, a true
convergence solution that combines an innovative application suite with existing building technologies to deliver the ultimate
flexibility and personalization.
IPTComfort integrates building management, back office, and communications systems over a single IP network, with
centralized administration and control. All assets are controlled with a flexible software-based, solution that combines building
automation capabilities with a converged, IP network. IPTComfort controls lighting, wiring, HVAC, building access, TV and
video cameras—virtually any device that can be connected to a building management system.
Building users, managers, owners and operators can regulate building services—either on premise or remotely—via an IP
phone, cell phone, IPTV, or standard web browser. IPTComfort supports ZigBee protocol, allowing for easy integration and
wireless access to building controls. With this level of automation, buildings can be adapted to the changing needs of the user
on a daily—or even hourly—basis.
Do more with less.
IPTComfort reduces operating and capital investment costs by improving the use of existing infrastructure and resources. With
IPTComfort, building operators can automate the control of multiple systems to improve conservation, flexibility and security,
while tailoring the environment to meet the unique needs of users.
Conserve Energy & Resources
IPTComfort reduces energy costs by controlling lights, and HVAC—and ensuring they are only used when required. Unused
office space or rooms can be maintained at a conservation level until required for use. Building users find their office or room
spaces automatically customized to meet their needs, reducing the cost of over heating or cooling. Automating window
shutters and blinds keeps building interiors cool during hot spells. IPTComfort monitors energy use by tenant, offering
operators a way to allocate billing based on consumption on a monthly, or daily basis.
Leveraging Existing Wiring & Systems
Existing wiring systems can be quickly reconfigured to create
adaptable workspaces that support multiple uses. This minimizes
the need to add or change facilities to accommodate new building
functionality, reducing support and administration costs. Guest and
user preferences are stored in an easy to access database that is
accessed by IPTComfort to automatically control building areas.
This pre-set, customized approach will reduce energy consumption,
and minimize management and administrative costs, with
centralized, automated control. IPTComfort supports all installed,
existing legacy equipment and provides integration over an IP
foundation.
It’s all done over a converged IP network, with IPTComfort’s customizable, software-based solution that supports installed,
legacy equipment and existing wiring systems. Buildings no longer require the dedicated signaling networks found in virtually
all legacy real estate environments. Instead, building management systems use an IP foundation that integrates with all IT
other and communications services. With IP-based services, energy management controls can be accessed remotely, through
an IP phone, cell phone, IPTV or standard browser. IPTComfort helps building owners control energy consumption while
accommodating the changing building needs and improving the end user experience.
Build intelligence into any space, at anytime.
IPTComfort improves every aspect of a user’s experience by providing a flexible and tailored building environment. Space can
be programmed to support the daily changes in building activities to accommodate a variety of user needs.
Intelligent Buildings Serve Multiple Needs
Offer a more efficient meeting environment, by automating lights, curtains and A/V equipment in a conference room, with push
button activation over existing wiring and switches. Turn off heat in rooms that must unexpectedly accommodate a surplus of
people, and support the needs of larger groups with more specialized lighting and ventilation. Facilitate flexible work hours by
allowing employees to remotely turn on garage lights and unlock gates before entering a building at night, increasing safety
and security.
Generate Revenue, Track Expenses
For multi-tenant properties, IPTComfort allows building operators to allocate utility costs based on actual consumption.
Buildings are better utilized and personalized, and operating costs tied to the needs of different tenant and user groups.
Owners and operators can differentiate properties with new services, delivered by a flexible, converged, solution. Properties can
also generate revenue by running ads for local businesses on large screen TVs, kiosks or displays, placed in common areas.
Nevotek IPTComfort does it all over existing wiring systems, anchored by a converged IP network. Functionality is delivered by
a programmable software platform, which defines and delivers end user features. Building operators can add or change
features through an easy-to-use, browser-based interface, without the need for physical rewiring.
Increase productivity, streamline operations
IPTComfort offers innovative, advanced capabilities that enhance the productivity of every building. With IPTComfort, owners
and operators can better leverage the human and physical resources of their property for maximum efficiency, and gain control
over facilities with an easy to use, software-based solution.
Leverage Existing Resources
Allow employees to act as virtual receptionists by giving IP phones access to photos from surveillance cameras at any
entrance, which can then be unlocked via a button on the phone, improving security. Add functionality to open spaces by
programming existing switches to handle new capabilities—such as dimming the lights, controlling outlets from a wall switch,
or turning on or off an outlet to accommodate a temporary user.
Reduce the number of service calls by automatically programming hotel rooms or offices to users’ preferred temperature
settings, lighting TV station. Place sensors in strategic locations to identify potentially hazardous situations before they
become catastrophic, including pipe leaks, smoke and fire and security break-ins.
A Model for Comfort
IPTComfort combines hardware and software into a flexible solution that runs
on top of standard IP server products. It provides the next step of total
convergence, adding end user solutions and applications to a flexible, IP
network platform.
System Components
IPTComfort hardware components connect to standard circuit breakers, and
reside in a small, conveniently located panel that taps into the building
management system network. These connections allow IPTComfort to leverage
building and room wiring and work with existing facilities.
IPTComfort software runs on a server, with APIs designed to work with standard
browsers, IP phones or mobile phones. The software includes an easy to use,
browser-based client administrative and management capabilities, and controls
over smart I/O devices located throughout the building. Users can control the
physical resources of a property over devices connected to an IP network,
either on premise or remotely.
