About

Automation doesn’t have to be difficult. It simply requires a system that does away with the problems of isolated devices by ensuring that all components communicate via one common language. The kind of device you want to use doesn’t matter anymore.

Whether you want to control lighting, shutters, security systems, energy management, heating, ventilation, air-conditioning systems, signaling and monitoring systems, interfaces to service and building control systems, remote control, audio and video control,… All these functions work via an uniform system. This is called the principle of interworking. This is home and building control made easy. This is KNX.

Realising the automation dream

Maximised flexibility and personalisation

The standard has been eagerly adopted by many international manufacturers who together provide a vast array of KNX-certified products.

Choosing from this pool of interoperable technology, integrators and contractors can build entire control solutions by bringing together a variety of off-the-shelf components which are truly interoperable.  These products have all been thoroughly tested and certified to be KNX compliant and all operate seamlessly together, programmed by the integrator using one common software tool.  And because they all ‘speak the same language’, they can operate together across the same network, resulting in much less cabling and higher functionality.

Smart home devices, controlled by smart app

KNX – applying the KNX Standard

KNX Association is the creator and owner of the KNX technology – the world’s only open STANDARD for all applications in home and building control, ranging from lighting and blind control to systems for heating, ventilation, air conditioning, monitoring, alarming, water control, energy management, metering as well as household appliances, audio – AV and lots more. 

 The technology can be used in new as well as in existing home and buildings.

For members of the KNX Association the system is royalty-free, moreover can be implemented on any processor platform. All products bearing the KNX logo are certified in order to guarantee system compatibility, interworking and interoperability.

There are KNX Projects in more than 120 countries across the world

The only global standard for home and building control

This system is the industry standard and is approved the world over. So whether you want to link up security cameras, lighting controls, audiovisual equipment, lighting and heating controls, or any other smart home devices, KNX is the way to go. KNX is the world’s only Building Automation Standard that holds all these international standards:

  • 2001: KNX Specification V1.0
  • 2003: European Standard EN 50090
  • 2006: International Standard ISO/EIC 14543-3-1 to 7
  • 2013: Chinese Standard GB/T 20965
  • 2017: Australian Technical Specification
  • 2017: KNX Data Security EN50090-3-4
  • 2017: American Standard ANSI
  • 2017: ASHRAE 135 BACnet Annex H.5
