Smart Lighting for Data Centre Perimeter

Superior Efficiency.  Smart Security.  Seamless Operations.

Intelligent lighting for always-on infrastructure behind today’s economy

Data Centres are the engine rooms of the digital economy, requiring absolute reliability and 24/7 security. Managing lighting across wide perimeters and high-security facility grounds is a significant challenge, as typical "always-on" lighting leads to excessive energy waste and high maintenance overhead.

TVILIGHT transforms data centre lighting into a strategic security and efficiency asset. Our wireless control solutions give facility managers the power to manage lighting their way, ensuring that every watt of energy is justified. Whether you need motion-triggered security alerts, shift-based scheduling, or real-time health reports, our system ensures safety and uptime are never sacrificed for efficiency.

Smart Lighting for Data Centres

Responsive Lighting

Adaptable illumination that synchronises perimeter safety with site security.

  • Security-linked triggers. Integrate with perimeter sensors or CCTV to instantly switch lights to 100% brightness upon detecting unauthorised movement, deterring intruders and aiding surveillance clarity.
  • Active work-zone highlighting. Automatically boost light levels in specific zones using motion sensors to provide a clear visual signal of occupancy during outdoor maintenance or security sweeps.
  • Constant Lumen Output (CLO). Adjust power automatically to compensate for LED aging, ensuring that critical security lux levels remain constant over the life of the asset.
  • Event-driven scenes. Program pre-defined “scenes” for site-wide security sweeps or emergency evacuations, enabling maximum visibility across the entire facility with a single command.

One Platform for Total Facility Management

Manage perimeters, access roads, and security zones from a single screen.

  • Unified security dashboard. Monitor the status and health of every outdoor light point through the CityManager platform, ensuring no dark spots compromise site integrity.
  • Real-time fault monitoring. Receive instant alerts the moment a lamp fails, allowing for immediate corrective action in high-risk zones where a “light out” is a liability.
  • Mobile app for security. Empower on-site security and facility staff with a dedicated app to instantly override schedules for unscheduled security checks or emergency repairs.
  • Sustainable reporting. Access granular reports on energy consumption to track and achieve strict sustainability and Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) goals.

Built for Data Centre Environments

Solutions designed for high-interference zones and mission-critical resilience.

  • 3-level fail-safe. If a system error occurs, lamps are programmed to automatically return to 100% brightness, ensuring the facility is never left in the dark.
  • Signal integrity. Wireless controllers are engineered to perform reliably in high-interference environments, maintaining constant connectivity near sensitive data infrastructure.
  • Industrial-grade resilience. IP, IK, and EMI-rated solutions designed for dust, weather exposure, and electromagnetic environment of a modern data centre campus.
  • Operational shift profiles. Program lighting to match facility operational hours, transitioning gracefully from full brightness during shift changes to an energy-saving security glow.

Open and Future-Ready

A standardised foundation that integrates with existing security architecture.

  • Any luminaire, any generation: Works with Zhaga Book 18 (D4i), NEMA 7-Pin and 5-Pin, DALI DT6 / DT7 / DT8 and 0–10V / 1–10V — from perimeter floodlights to ground-recessed fixtures.
  • Open standards: TALQ-certified and uCIFI-aligned with a full Open API for effortless data sharing with existing Security, BMS, or Asset Tracking systems.
  • Hybrid connectivity. Support for both self-healing RF mesh and Cellular networks ensures total coverage across dense facility clusters or remote perimeter fence lines.
  • Smart hub foundation. Every lighting pole serves as a potential host for additional IoT assets, such as air quality sensors, noise monitors, or 5G small cells.
