Imagine every LED light in our offices, buildings and cities could become a high speed, smart, and secure internet access point.

The LiFi LiFi-XC system offers partners the ability to deploy a fully networked LiFi solution. LiFi-XC supports multiple access, roaming, complete mobility and ease of use – providing a level of user experience that is comparable to existing wireless technologies such as Wi-Fi with the added security, safety and data density of visible light.

• Security: Light can be contained in a physical space making LiFi inherantly more secure. Users can see where data is going and there is less requirement for additional security.

• Safety: Radio frequency technologies such as Wi-Fi cause interference to electronic devices. LiFi is directional meaning interference is simpler to avoid and even prevent all together. This means LiFi can be used in RF hostile zones.

• Data Density: LiFi offers a greater user experience as it reduces the need to share wireless bandwidth with other users. LiFi can achieve approximately 1000 times the data density of Wi-Fi offering substantially more data per square metre.

• Location Services: LiFi systems are fully networked and each LiFi enabled light has it’s own IP address which means advanced geo fencing can be deployed simply in a LiFi network.

LiFi are LED agnostic allowing for LiFi technology to transform existing LED lighting infrastructures into reliable, fast, secure and highly dense wireless networks. The installation process is straightforward and flexible. LiFi backhaul can be deployed using a standard mains powered solution. The LiFi Access Point also supports PoE/PoE+ and Cisco UPOE to minimise the cabling required for deploying the network. In addition to the standard lighting and LiFi functionality, the LiFi-XC AP also allows the attached LED luminaire to be dimmed using a proprietary control protocol over IP, DALI frames, or an analogue level where available.

TR-069 remote management and automatic provisioning software suite are also available to ease the deployment and management of large LiFi networks. The LiFi-XC Station (STA) is USB powered to enable complete mobility and ease of use. After installing the provided device driver, the system simply uses existing operating system tools for scanning and connecting to LiFi-XC Access Points.
