Cence LVDC is centralized or decentralized to suit your project needs

Centralized

All drivers are located inside the Cence LVDC panel.

Daisy chaining enabled with light fixtures of the same type.

blue check

LED drivers located in a single location for simple maintenance.

Decentralized

Remote splitters (drivers) are located outside the Cence LVDC panel.

blue check

Maximize yield efficiency by connecting different types of light fixtures, in a single branch circuit.

blue check

Easily control CCT and RGBW LED Lighting.

blue check

Address fixtures individually for more granular control over lighting.

Class 2 power supply with all the benefits of PoE, and none of the drawbacks.

Cence LVDC can achieve the same results as Power over Ethernet (PoE), and is more cost effective.

The Power of Daisy Chaining

Advantage over PoE

PoE is not usually daisy chained because that would require each load to additionally include, or act as, a switch (extra cost).

Reduced Cable Costs

With daisy chaining, less "home runs" of cabling are necessary, thus reducing the complexity of the project, and the cabling needed.

Improved Yield Efficiency

Makes use of the full power available for each Ethernet port. Ex. If 100 Watts were available per port, four 25 Watt fixtures could be connected to it.

How Cence LVDC Works

A half open Cence low voltage DC panel

The Cence LVDC panel simply connects to any typical electrical panel, makes one, centralized, highly efficient AC to DC conversion, and sends up to 60V DC over cables that make use of low-voltage wiring practices. Correct voltages are automatically sent directly to daisy chained loads, or to decentralized drivers.

Remote decentralized splitters (drivers) allow multiple different fixture types to be connected to a single Class 2 branch. They also create a secure, wireless mesh network for real-time lighting controls.

Plug and play any LED fixture with a remote/removeable driver. Control lighting from an app, or locally with wired or wireless switches.

Cence Success Stories

Loads need more than 100 W?
We support that too

Cence HVDC (high-voltage DC) supports loads that need over 100 W of power (up to 450V DC). Cence HVDC and LVDC compliment each other; use high-voltage for longer cable run lengths, and low-voltage for shorter run lengths (last-mile) to save on energy regardless of the project size.
