Product Monday: Bluetooth Goes Long-Range And Outdoors

An increasing number of manufacturers of Bluetooth® wireless lighting control components have recently released long-range / outdoor components. Some examples include:

  • LiteTrace
  • Casambi
  • McWong in partnership with Silvair

These long-range components can include: fixture controllers, sensors, and signal boosters. Most of these manufacturers utilize external antennas to achieve ranges between 500 to 1,000 feet between nodes. Many of these components are intended for outdoor applications, with appropriate IP ratings.

It’s important to note that the range of Bluetooth wireless lighting controls can be affected by various factors, such as interference from other devices, obstacles in the environment, and the specific product and installation. It’s always a good idea to consult with the manufacturer and consider factors like range and reliability when choosing wireless outdoor lighting control products.
