ZigBee Alliance ratifies Building Automation Standard
ZigBee联盟批准楼宇自动化标准

September 28, 2011 – The ZigBee Alliance completed development and ratified the ZigBee Building Automation standard.

9月28日消息——ZigBee联盟开发完成并批准了ZigBee楼宇自动化标准。

ZigBee Building Automation is the global standard for interoperable products enabling the secure and reliable monitoring and control of commercial building systems. It is the only BACnet approved wireless mesh network standard for commercial buildings. Products using ZigBee Building Automation give building owners and operators control of more building types, previously unreachable rooms or sensitive areas, thanks to its low-power wireless operation. Existing wired BACnet building automation systems can now be expanded with greater ease and reduced operational cost. The standard was developed by numerous Alliance members, with major assistance coming from Convergence Wireless, Johnson Controls, Schneider Electric, Siemens, Ingersoll-Rand and Ubilogix.

ZigBee楼宇自动化是能够对商业楼宇系统进行安全可靠监控与控制的互操作性产品的全球标准，它是BACnet唯一认可的商业楼宇无线网状网络标准。使用 ZigBee楼宇自动化标准的产品使楼宇业主和运营者能够控制更多楼宇类型——以前覆盖不到的房间或敏感区域——这都要归功于其低功耗无线运作。现有的有线BACnet楼宇自动化系统现在可以更方便地进行拓展，并减低运营成本。该标准由众多联盟成员共同制定，其中Convergence Wireless、江森自控、施耐德电气、西门子、英格索兰以及Ubilogix做了重大贡献。

“ZigBee Building Automation delivers much sought after integration with BACnet building automation systems,” said Andy McMillan, BACnet International President and General Manager Philips Teletrol. “We selected ZigBee Building Automation because its low-power mesh networks will meet the needs of just about any type of building.”

BACnet国际组织总裁、飞利浦Teletrol公司总经理Andy McMillan表示：“与BACnet楼宇自动化系统整合之后，ZigBee楼宇自动化标准深受欢迎。我们选择ZigBee楼宇自动化标准，是因为其低功耗网状网络能够满足几乎所有类型楼宇的需求。”

With ZigBee Building Automation, building owners, operators and tenants can create more efficient buildings and benefit from increased energy savings. They can also ensure the lowest lifecycle costs with this green and easy-to-install robust wireless network. ZigBee Building Automation wireless products can contribute toward satisfying credits in the Sustainable Sites, Energy and Atmosphere and Indoor Environmental Quality categories of the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED green building certification program.

利用ZigBee楼宇自动化标准，楼宇业主、运营者和租客可以使楼宇更高效，并受益于更多的能源节省。这个易安装的稳固绿色无线网络还能使他们确保实现最低的生活周期成本。ZigBee楼宇自动化无线产品有助于获得美国绿色建筑委员会LEED绿色建筑认证计划的可持续场所、能源和大气以及室内环境质量类别的评分。

“With ZigBee Building Automation, it is now possible to eliminate the web of wires required to monitor and manage a building and maintain all the benefits of BACnet, “said Bob Heile, chairman of the ZigBee Alliance. “ZigBee Building Automation provides product manufacturers with a proven standard to expand their product line and help their customers adapt for the future. Only a ZigBee Building Automation network makes it easier, faster and cheaper for a space to be reconfigured to meet a new tenant need.”

ZigBee联盟主席Bob Heile表示：“有了ZigBee楼宇自动化标准，现在能够减少监控和管理楼宇所需的线路，并维持BACnet的所有好处。ZigBee楼宇自动化标准为产品厂商提供了成熟标准以拓展他们的产品线，并帮助他们的客户适应未来发展。只有ZigBee楼宇自动化网络能够更轻松、更快速并以更低的成本进行空间的重新配置，从而满足新租客的需求。”

The Alliance expects members to create ZigBee Building Automation products that will become ZigBee Certified.

ZigBee联盟预计其成员将制造符合ZigBee认证的ZigBee楼宇自动化产品。

ZigBee Certified
The ZigBee Certified program tests the functionality and interoperability of products using ZigBee standards and specifications to ensure they meet stringent quality standards. More than 340 products have successfully passed this rigorous program. The certification of products is a critical part of the ZigBee Alliance’s standards development and is required before any standard is released for product development. The ZigBee Certified program allows manufacturers to deliver a variety of innovative products to customers of all types who can benefit from the simplicity of ZigBee control.

ZigBee认证
ZigBee认证计划利用ZigBee标准和规范来测试产品的功能性和互操作性，以确保它们符合严格的质量标准。已有340多种产品成功通过了这个严格的认证计划。产品认证是ZigBee联盟标准开发过程中的关键部分，也是任何产品开发标准发布前必须进行的步骤。ZigBee认证计划使制造商能够面向各类客户推出各种创新产品，使他们受益于ZigBee控制的简易性。
