The Big Idea
• Buildings are managed by a large number of sensors connected to distributed controllers and a centralized user interface.
• It is a true Network of Things.
• It is not an Internet of Things.
• The future is IP.• IP networks are physically ubiquitous, particularly in buildings.
• IP networking is the most known and familiar kind of network.

BACnet Standard
• Short for “Building Automation Control Network”.
• Both an international (ISO) and ANSI standard for interoperability between cooperating building automation devices.
• “The motivation for this Standard was the widespread desire of building owners and operators for ‘interoperability,’ the ability to integrate equipment from different vendors into a coherent automation and control system – and to do so competitively.” (from the Foreword to the BACnet standard)
• Customers have opted for open standards.

BACnet Networking
• BACnet supports several networking options, including Ethernet.
• BACnet/IP is dominant for devices in the upper tiers of the network.
• BACnet MS/TP is dominant for the more numerous devices in the lower tiers of the network.
• The BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP are compatible at the application layer.
• The two-PHY approach means one translation layer

BACnet/IP
• BACnet/IP was published as a standard in 2004.
• We know Ethernet works, for example:• Frame format and frame size.
• Typical message size.
• Implemented at the top tier devices because:• Need for bandwidth.
• Need for IP connectivity.
• Ethernet became standard on the computers required to run the software.

BACnet/IP
• Historically the problems using Ethernet in lower tiers were:• Cost of the wiring infrastructure.
• Cost pressure on the hardware (cost of chip sets).
• Complexity of integrating the microcontroller, MAC, and PHY as a system.
• General unfamiliar with Ethernet.
• These issues have faded.

Need and Opportunity (I)
• Incremental conversion of buses to Ethernet networking means field controllers are next.
• Worldwide market estimate for year 2016 is 9 million units of which 10% are IP enabled.
• In any given fiscal year, the opportunities for retrofit are 90% of the market.• The retrofit market with cable reuse is large and available, and will remain so
for many years.
• The new-construction market will be served in the short run by existing Ethernet.

Specification for Field Bus (BACnet 9.2)
• Single twisted-pair.• 18 AWG/3-wire stranded twisted shielded cable.• Reach up to 1200 m per segment up to three segments.• Impedance between 100 and 130 ohms.• Distributed capacitance less than 100 pF per meter.
• Multi-drop.• Up to 32 devices per segment. Up to 64 devices over 3 segments.• No T connections permitted.
• Speeds from 9600 baud to 76800 baud.

Terminal block connections are typical

Reach for field bus
• The existing reach specification is largely driven by bus topology (multidrop).
• If existing devices were replaced by dual port devices, then a 1200 m reach is required only for connections between buildings.

Need and Opportunity (II)
• Development of IP-enabled field controllers increases the number of possible BACnet/IP nodes per deployment by an order of magnitude.
• Market for edge devices is much larger, but much more cost sensitive.• No foreseeable need for significant communication bandwidth.

Specification for Sensor Bus (typical)
• Single twisted-pair wiring.• 22 AWG, stranded 4-wire, two twisted pair, shielded cable.
• Reach up to 400 m.
• Multi-drop and linear chain.• Up to 10 devices per segment.

Reach for Sensor Bus
• The existing reach specification is largely driven by bus topology (multidrop).
• If existing devices were replaced by dual port devices, then a 40 m reach would suffice for most point-to-point connections.

Bus (typical, field bus and sensor bus)
• Operating range 0 deg to 50 deg C.
• Terminations• Spade lugs or screw terminals.
• Protected against misapplication of 24 VAC.
• Meets EN61000-4-4 (Electrical Fast Transient / Burst Immunity Test) and EN6100-4-5 (Electromagnetic compatibility, surge immunity) requirements for heavy industrial applications.

Miscellany
• Simplex/Duplex – BACnet is simplex in its origins, but BACnet/IP means the duplex also works. This is an effect, not a driver.
• Reduced pin count is important because there is limited space on circuit boards.
• Already use power separate from communication.• Works well with multi-drop.
• Field bus communication runs in parallel to 24 V AC power.
• Sensor bus communication runs in parallel to 15 V DC power.

Conclusions
• The building segment is driven by the BACnet standard, which drives the need for a widely accepted communication standard.
• Controllers can absorb the cost of Ethernet more easily than sensors.
• The field bus for controllers needs longer reach than the sensor bus.
• The market for cable reuse is much larger than for new construction and gives access to the total available market.
