The OSRAM CLM is one of the first LED fixture dedicated device to enable "out-of-the-box" wireless lighting controllable fixtures. The module can be inserted into any fixture with a driver capable of providing 12V auxiliary output to instantly make them smart and able to be controlled wirelessly. It also allows fixtures to connect to multiple wireless systems and building control systems certified to the ZigBee (News - Alert)^® Home Automation standard, without the need to worry about compatibility and procurement with wireless light management systems. The OSRAM CLM is Daintree Networks^® ControlScope^® certified, will operate on ZigBee Home Automation networks, and integrates with the ENCELIUM^® Energy Management System.

"At LIGHTFAIR, the feedback about the OSRAM Connected Lighting Module was fantastic. People told us how much they appreciate how simple and easy this exciting device enables the wireless controllability of luminaires," said Tom Shottes, head of Digital Systems, Americas, OSRAM SYLVANIA. "Before, OEMs had to buy and figure out how to install the wireles enabling components for the manufacturer of the wireless system specified. Now, they can use one device that works with a variety of leading wireless controls systems and offer a standard wireless controllable fixture."
