Honeywell and Huawei, are deploying a gigabit network and a Passive Optical LAN (POL) solution for the Brisbane Skytower in Australia.
Brisbane Skytower is a landmark building under construction in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Located in Brisbane's central business district, this iconic residential tower will become Brisbane's tallest building when completed in 2018/2019.
Honeywell will provide Skytower with its Enterprise Buildings Integrator, a building automation system that takes charge of system integration, covering the Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning, security protection facilities, etc.
Additionally, Honeywell will centrally manage various building sub-systems, provide a visualized management portal and alarm management and work-order management services, designed to deliver efficient facility management, fast response, and predictive maintenance.
Huawei will meanwhile deliver the gigabit network to achieve smart network inside the Skytower. In contrast to a traditional complex LAN which limits the performance of bandwidth-intensive applications, using POL technology, an enterprise can combine data, voice, video, and other weak-current systems into one optical network.
Huawei's solution will bear all services through a single fiber that will be upgradable to 10G PON while reusing existing cables.
Prominent features include high bandwidth, high reliability, comprehensive security authentication, easy deployment and Wi-Fi coverage.
"We're excited to work with Huawei to build a gigabit network for Skytower, Brisbane’s iconic 270-meter, 90-story residential tower. The network is the first-ever installation to utilize one common fiber optic cable for telephony/data and building services,” Honeywell Building Solutions executive GM Mark Dunn said.
