TAIPEI, TAIWAN – October 5, 2026 – EmCom Technology Inc., a premier OEM/ODM manufacturer with nearly 50 years of industry expertise, today announced the launch of its new generation of KNX Data Secure Presence Detectors. Designed to meet the stringent demands of modern smart buildings, the new product lineup delivers significantly enhanced functionality, robust cybersecurity, and advanced automation capabilities configurable directly within the Engineering Tool Software (ETS).
As commercial and residential buildings become increasingly interconnected, safeguarding building automation networks is more critical than ever. EmCom’s latest presence detectors utilize the KNX Secure standard, employing AES-128 encryption to protect all data communication. This mitigates the risk of unauthorized access and manipulation, ensuring compliance with tightening European and global cyber security regulations for building automation.
Beyond security, the new sensors are engineered for superior energy efficiency and living comfort. By integrating presence detection, daylight harvesting, and temperature and humidity control, the devices optimize overall energy consumption. The comprehensive product lineup caters to diverse spatial requirements:
- Wide Range Presence Detector: Offers 360° detection covering up to a 24-meter diameter.
- High Bay Presence Detector: Specifically designed for high-ceiling environments, supporting installation heights up to 15 meters.
- Corridor Presence Detector: Optimized for aisles, providing a specialized 40x5-meter detection range.
- Super-Flat Sensor: Features an ultra-low profile for virtually invisible, aesthetically pleasing ceiling installations without compromising performance.
To accommodate various architectural needs, the detectors support versatile multi-way installation options, including surface mounting, false ceiling flush mounting, and flush mounting with standard European junction boxes.
As a certified KNX manufacturer, EmCom is deeply committed to advancing data communication security within smart infrastructures. The new KNX Data Secure presence detectors empower facility managers and integrators to operate smart buildings reliably, efficiently, and securely.
The new EmCom KNX presence detectors combine greater performance, enhanced security, and increased flexibility for building automation, and they are all available now.
