Frequently asked questions
Should I choose Buspro or KNX?
Choose KNX when the project specification requires the international open standard. Buspro is HDL's own wired platform and is widely used for villas, hotels and commercial buildings. Our engineers can recommend the right path for your project.
When is Buspro Wireless the better option?
In existing buildings and flexible installations where adding new control cabling is difficult.
Can Buspro, Wireless and KNX work together?
Yes, through HDL gateways such as the Buspro/Wireless gateway and the HDL-BUS and KNX/EIB interface converter.
