Zhaga - D4i joint certification program | LightNOW

The Zhaga Consortium (Zhaga) and the Digital Illumination Interface Alliance (DiiA) have unveiled their joint Zhaga-D4i certification program, indicating plug-and-play interoperability of luminaires, sensors, and communication nodes.

Combining the expertise in the two organizations, the Zhaga-D4i certification program will enable smart, future-proof LED luminaires with IoT connectivity. Initially, the focus is on outdoor lighting, but indoor solutions are also in development.

Zhaga-D4i certification will be available for outdoor LED luminaires that have a Zhaga Book 18 socket and contain D4i-certified LED drivers. Compatible sensors and wireless communication nodes with a Zhaga connector will also be eligible for Zhaga-D4i certification.

Expected to launch in the third quarter of 2019, Zhaga-D4i certification will be made available by the Zhaga Consortium to its Regular and Associate members.

All Zhaga-D4i certified products will be eligible to carry both the Zhaga and D4i logos, to give a clear indication of interoperability. The Zhaga logo and the D4i logo are trademarks of Zhaga and DiiA, respectively. All certified Zhaga-D4i products will be listed on the Zhaga website.
