4. 4Here is What the Industry is Doing Now
Building Automation & Controls
Tools to increase awareness of Energy
Consumption, reduce the cost of waste
from electro-mechanical systems, and
improve awareness of in-building
functional systems are in demand now
Distributed Antenna
Systems (DAS)
Users of mobile products demand
instant access to content no
matter what wireless connection
method is available
Analog Phone Systems
The patent for the telephone was
awarded in 1876. It took almost 100
years for communications networks
to evolve yet most of the legacy
telephony infrastructure remains
RF Cable Networks
RG6,8, and RG9 “Coax” cable is
widely used in homes and
businesses for cable tv and analog
security systems
Security and Property
Service Networks
2 Wire cabling networks are installed to
support building sensors, access
control, burglar alarms and a variety of
non IT property specific needs
Data Networks
Data networks evolved in the last 30 years to
become among the most critical need for any
business. They are designed for data and
eat budgets due to incessant demands for
upgrades, reconfigurations, and support
costs – they do not support analog and cable

This is How WE Change the Game
ONE - Information Communications Technology – ICT Network
Reducing Complexity, Reduces Cost
Analog Phone Systems
Keep what you have - Integrate
your legacy analog telephone
systems with VOIP where enhanced
services are needed and realize the
cost reductions that are possible
today
DATA Networks
These were NEVER designed to handle VIDEO and
ANALOG signals and their physical capacity is limited.
Upgrades are costly and needed sometimes as little
as 18 months. It’s a revenue depleting cycle that only
benefits the providers. Migrate from what you have
today to;
6:1 Networks that eliminate up to 5X the cost
RF and Video Cabling
Keep what you have - Integrate your legacy RF and Analog
Video Systems over the same physical medium and
eliminate the added expense
Security and Property Service Networks
Building Automation & Controls
Keep what you have - Energy Management is becoming an enterprise level
discipline at the same time the need to provide integrated security and asset
visibility is increasing.

13. 13Here is What the Industry is Doing Now
A More Efficient System Translates to Lower Cost .. And More
Building Automation & Controls
HVAC and other critical building
management systems that comply with
ASHRAE and BACnet standards use
software and sensors for control,
monitoring and predictive analytics or
service response
HVAC and Environmental
Systems
Multiple Sensors and automated
presence based systems are
utilized to reduce energy
consumption and replace human
efforts, this changes consumption
but does not change efficiency
In-Property AC Distribution
Substation to weatherhead to meter
to panel to breaker to switch to load –
All AC yet more than half of the
energy ever produced has been
consumed in the last 15 years
Energy Controls and Distribution
The introduction of renewables from
the supply side and the demand side
has resulted in higher demand for a
“Smart Grid”. Designs for AC plants
today ignore the availability of higher
efficiency DC today
Lighting Types and Controls
In building lighting systems waste as
much as 78% of the energy supplied
and is highly inneficient as compared to
LED technology today. Existing
controls are typically manual and
sensor based
Alternating Current Electrical Plant
The Battle of the Currents was well
publicized with Thomas Edison, George
Westinghouse and Nikolai Tesla. AC won
and was appropriate for the day but resulted
in a system that is costly to operate and
wastes as much as 20% of the energy
created

27. 27Here is What the Industry is Doing Now
HVDC & Smart GRID
High Voltage DC Distribution
Systems are in use today. These
systems are more efficient and
require less material to operate
Renewables & Storage
Solar, Wind, Hydropower, Biomass and
a range of supply side energy creation
and energy storage solutions
complement a wide range of demand
side solutions that supplement the grid,
AC GRID
The Domestic Electric Grid was established
with AC distribution. The system was
implemented for the purpose of serving
lighting systems, pumps, and motors. AC
systems are prone to thermal loss while the
demand for DC supply is growing.
