Intelligent Power and Data Infrastructure for Smart-Building Architects

FREE

As smart building technologies evolve, so must the infrastructure that supports them. This course introduces architects and design professionals to the latest advancements in intelligent power and data delivery, with a focus on scalable, efficient, and future-ready infrastructure. Attendees will explore how a distributed edge architecture—AGILE-CORE™—can eliminate the need for traditional IDF closets, reduce complexity, and create more flexible, technology-enabled spaces. The course will also cover how to deploy Fault Managed Power and hybrid cabling to deliver both power and data safely and efficiently to the edge. Additional topics include centralized backup power strategies and the use of a unified infrastructure to support critical building systems such as lighting, Wi-Fi, access control, security, video conferencing, and device charging. Participants will gain practical insights into designing smart buildings that are safer, more resilient, and prepared for future technology demands.

Credits: 1 AIA LU HSW + 1 AIBD Elective + 1 Sustainable Design + 1 AIBC Core LU + 1 AAA Structured LU + 1 OAA, OAQ, SAA, MAA, AAPEI, NWTAA + 1 Climate Action (OAA)

Length: 1 hour
