Looking to replace our Ceiling Lights for LED’s and thought how great would that be
to have “cAP ax” acting as well as a “LED Ceiling Light”
supporting PWR-LINE and have maybe movement sensor etc.
Anyone got anything similar from other manufacturer?
I rather have “one device” on the ceiling then LED light and next to it ceiling AP
that I have to get the cable to it and drill another hole etc.
The el. cables are already there and if PWR-LINE implemented, could be powered
from that and LED part controlled by number of means …App, sensor, (Light switch
would turn the AP off completely) ..
It can be modular and does not have to be a product that when it breaks, you throw it away,
but like on PC replace faulty part or even better, UPGRADE the part
(I Know it’s not fashionable today to be able to replace/upgrade product,
but it works with PC and other products)
MikroTIk can make a name for themself’s and orders for the product would be in 1xxx’s if constructed right …
at least in the enterprise sector …
You can use a small (round) AP and put around it a T9 led (circular tube) but you would still need an ethernet cable to it or adapt any powerline AP, there are a few that are really small,. like 70x70 mm (though - if they work - they probably max out at 600).
Only problem with PowerLine devices is, that the “power sockets” are never in the ceiling height
and almost always in the area where other electronic devices producing el. smog - power by electricity are stored/kept …
Ceiling mounted AP+LED (2in1) would be awesome …Running RouterOS even better
I think you’re looking for a Ubiquiti device. You should pitch that idea to them if they aren’t already working on it. Unifi HOME. Just remember you saw it here first.
