PISCATAWAY, NJ--(Marketwired - Jul 20, 2016) - "We are delighted that NXP has joined the Fairhair Alliance, as a Regular Member," said Fairhair Secretary-General, Ruud van Bokhorst. "They are a key player in IoT network solutions, with exactly the right technical and standardization expertise that Fairhair needs."
Hans Dollee, Head of Technology Partnerships at NXP, confirmed the new membership.
"The Fairhair Alliance is playing a vital role in the fragmented landscape of IoT standard initiatives, by specifying a cost effective and secure IPv6-Based common network infrastructure that serves as the 'architecture-of-choice' for interoperable Lighting and Building Automation. And NXP, as leader in 'Secure Connections for a Smarter World,' should be part of the ecosystem, contributing to the set of technical specifications."
About the Fairhair Alliance
Fairhair is an Alliance of leading companies, from the Lighting, Building Automation and IT industry, that aims to facilitate the use of IPv6 for the 'Internet of Things' in buildings. The Fairhair Alliance envisions a future where building automation and lighting control systems utilize interoperable systems and link to application eco-systems, such as BACnet, KNX and ZigBee. This will enable a move from proprietary, standalone solutions to a common building network infrastructure that supports the 'IoT' of resource constrained devices.
