FRANKCAS X2 Server Appliance

The hardware that runs the X2 platform on site. A fanless 1U rackmount controller that sits in the comms room, talks to your Casambi gateways over the local network, and keeps lighting control, energy metering, indoor air quality and emergency lighting compliance running whether or not the building has an internet connection. Four Gigabit ports let up to four Tridonic sceneCOM application controllers connect directly for emergency lighting monitoring and air quality data. Because it is on-premises, control and historical data stay inside the building.

• Runs the complete FRANKCAS X2 platform on site — all 15 modules
• 4 Tridonic sceneCOM controllers direct-attached, one per Gigabit port — up to 10 via a managed switch
• Operates fully offline: scenes, schedules, circadian curves and emergency test scheduling execute on the appliance
• Fanless — no moving parts except the SSD, silent and low maintenance
• 4 × Gigabit Ethernet for network segregation and BMS bridging
• 2 × SFP cages for fibre links between plant rooms or buildings
• Local historian retains energy, air quality and emergency test records
• Serves the X2 web interface to any browser on the network
• REST API and MQTT northbound to BMS, cloud or third-party dashboards
• Console port and remote access for support without a site visit
