The KNX IoT to BACnet IP gateway (OCT200.KNBA), is able to receive data from the Wireless room sensor via wireless connection (KNX IoT over Thread) and translate this data to northbound Siemens controllers or another 3rd-party building automation/management system via BACnet or vice versa. The supported building automation/management systems from Siemens include:

  • Desigo Classic
  • Desigo Control Point
  • PXC5 & PXC7
  • DXR2

In a KNX IoT to BACnet IP gateway Thread network, the total number of connected sensors and extenders is 100.

  • Gateway: A max. of 32 sensors and 22 extenders can be connected directly.
  • Extenders: A max. of 32 sensors can be connected directly.
