CAT Occupancy Ceiling Sensor (OCS-C-*)

The WaveLinx CAT Occupancy Ceiling Sensor (OCS-C-*) with dual technology combines passive infrared (PIR) technology and advanced audio detection, to monitor occupancy in a space. The PIR technology detects the presence of people by sensing changes in heat, while the acoustic feature listens for sounds, such as talking or movement, to determine if an area is still occupied even if no motion is detected directly. The CAT occupancy ceiling sensor is the market's thinnest commercial occupancy ceiling sensor, with 0.6"" of visible height once mounted in finished ceilings (e.g., ceiling tiles, sheetrock, plaster). It is ideal for spaces where designers are looking at reducing ceiling acne. This sensor also works as a daylight sensor that detects the level of natural light in the space and adjusts indoor lighting accordingly to maintain a desired brightness level. The sensor then transmits the appropriate commands to the associated dimming and switching devices via the CAT communication bus to turn the lights on or off automatically to meet and exceed the local energy code. The CAT Occupancy Ceiling Sensor is equipped with two RJ 45 connectors to connect the unit to CAT communication bus and other CAT devices over standard CAT5 cables. The device is also powered by the CT communication bus.
