Adesto Announces that New IoT Standard will Speed Adoption of LON Technology in Building and Industrial Automation
January 14 2019 - 8:00AM
Adesto® Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: IOTS), a leading provider
of innovative application-specific semiconductors and embedded
systems for the IoT era, announces that the new ANSI/CTA 709.7 LON®
IP protocol, recently approved by the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI), will speed further adoption of LON technology and
continue to expand the LonWorks® ecosystem. The new standard
enables native LON communication over any IP transport such as
Ethernet and Wi-Fi, as well as interoperability with IP-based web
services so that building and industrial automation systems can
seamlessly and securely interoperate with cloud and IoT
applications.
Adesto, through its recent acquisition of Echelon Corporation,
collaborated with other LonMark International members to drive
development and standardization of the new LON IP protocol, which
describes the complete set of requirements for users, developers,
vendors, integrators and specifiers of open building and industrial
control systems to develop LON devices with native IP transport. As
building and industrial control networks must handle ever-expanding
datasets and additional IoT application interfaces, IP
communications can provide higher speeds, greater bandwidth and
increased flexibility.
LON IP builds on the rich device management and control services
of the LON technology implemented in over 150 million devices
across all critical industrial markets including building
automation, smart grid, lighting controls, transportation and
manufacturing equipment.
“Following Adesto’s acquisition of Echelon Corporation, the
company is pursuing an aggressive embedded product roadmap which
puts LON technology and LonWorks at the forefront of open standard
networking for IoT systems,” said Rich Blomseth, principal product
manager for Adesto. “We believe that as the new protocol becomes an
internationally recognized standard, we will see increased adoption
of LON and LonWorks in IoT systems for building and industrial
automation.”
“Standardization of the LON IP protocol validates the approach
of combining LON application and data layers with IP standard
transport,” said Ron Bernstein, CEO and executive director, LonMark
International. “The new standard provides greater interoperability
between IT and operational technology systems, promising to create
a broad ecosystem for connecting building and industrial automation
systems with IoT applications and cloud analytics.”
Adesto is delivering a wave of technology innovations that
support the new LON IP standard including:
- Multi-protocol smart transceiver chipsets that support LON, LON
IP and other IP-based protocols, including BACnet IP, for
simplified system integration, lower cost of ownership,
multi-application and vendor interoperability, and standardized
tools
- Open MQTT based web services protocol (IAP) and rich APIs that
can easily and securely connect to LON and other control protocols
– enabling increased support for cloud-based and remote
applications
- Edge servers and network interfaces that provide connectivity
from IP cloud services to a variety of control protocols including
LON, Modbus, and BACnet.
Demonstrations of the new technologies will be shown in Adesto’s
booth C5234 at the AHR Expo in Atlanta, Georgia, January 14-16,
2019, and also in its booth 4A:124 at the Embedded World Exhibition
being held in Nuremberg, Germany, February 26-28, 2019.
