LEXI UNIVERSAL BUILDING AUTOMATION GATEWAY

One managed edge for a building full of different systems.

The LEXI Universal Building Automation Gateway connects wireless sensors, BACnet and Modbus equipment, and local networks — then adds managed edge processing and AI inference close to the building.

Connect more protocols. Bring more equipment online. Run more intelligence locally.

LEXI Universal Building Automation Gateway

Connect the physical building — stop adding a new gateway for every new use case. Existing buildings mix device generations, protocols and network conditions. LEXI creates one managed edge across that diversity. Reach dark assets: connect rooms, meters, equipment and remote assets that existing systems do not see. Use the right network: match connectivity to range, power, bandwidth and building conditions instead of forcing one radio everywhere. Reuse the installed edge: support additional compatible applications without building another connectivity stack. Extend existing systems: make newly digitized assets available to LEXI applications and supported upstream platforms.

Connect the physical building: stop adding a new gateway for every new use case. Reach dark assets, use the right network, reuse the installed edge, and extend existing systems.

Wireless + building automation — built for heterogeneous building environments. The Universal Gateway combines multiple wireless and building-automation interfaces so each asset can use the connection that fits it best. Wireless connectivity: LoRaWAN, Zigbee, Thread, Z-Wave, BLE Mesh, Wi-Fi. BACnet integration: connect supported BACnet building systems and make newly digitized LEXI assets available to BACnet-based BAS/BMS environments. Modbus over wireless: bring Modbus equipment onto the LEXI edge through supported wireless bridge / DTU patterns, reducing the need to run new data cabling. Long-range building coverage: 8-channel LoRaWAN supports low-power devices and hard-to-reach areas, with regional frequency configurations. Network & backhaul: Ethernet plus USB connectivity for cellular backhaul options.

Built for heterogeneous building environments: wireless connectivity, BACnet integration, Modbus over wireless, long-range building coverage, and network and backhaul.

NXP eIQ + local inference — run AI where the building data is created. LEXI is using the NXP eIQ AI development environment to deploy lightweight AI/ML models directly on the LEXI Universal Building Automation Gateway, combining multi-protocol building data with local inference. Deploy models at the edge; cross-protocol detection & correlation; reduce false positives; forecast & predict locally. AI flow: multi-protocol device data to LEXI gateway + NXP eIQ inference to detection / correlation / forecasting to rules, thresholds & guardrails. Govern local action: combine AI outputs with rules, thresholds, policies and guardrails to support low-latency local orchestration and protected equipment actions.

Run AI where the building data is created: deploy models at the edge, cross-protocol detection and correlation, reduce false positives, and forecast and predict locally. AI flow from multi-protocol device data through the LEXI gateway with NXP eIQ inference to detection and guardrails.

Operate the edge at scale — deploy the gateway as managed building infrastructure. LEXI manages gateways as a distributed fleet rather than as isolated boxes. Secure OTA lifecycle management: signed A/B software updates, staged rollouts, health checks and automatic rollback support remote fleet operation without routine truck rolls. Remote health & diagnostics: monitor gateway software, connectivity and deployment status across sites and portfolios. Secure access: control gateway, device, user and service access within the broader LEXI platform. White-label deployment: gateway and cloud offerings can support approved partner-branded service models.

Deploy the gateway as managed building infrastructure: secure OTA lifecycle management, remote health and diagnostics, secure access, and white-label deployment.

Manage with LEXI or integrate upward — the gateway extends the building. It does not dictate the software stack. Once assets are connected, customers choose where the data, applications and control workflows are managed. Flow: building assets / BACnet / Modbus / wireless devices to LEXI Universal Building Automation Gateway to local edge + AI to white-label LEXI Cloud and/or existing BAS / cloud / enterprise. White-Label LEXI Cloud: use LEXI applications, dashboards, alerts, automations and remote infrastructure management. Existing BAS/BMS or cloud platform: expose newly digitized assets through supported BACnet, APIs and other integrations to systems already in place. Hybrid: use LEXI for selected applications, Edge AI or gateway management while sharing data and services upstream.

The gateway extends the building and does not dictate the software stack. Flow from building assets through the LEXI Universal Gateway and local edge AI to the white-label cloud or existing systems, with White-Label LEXI Cloud, existing BAS/BMS, or hybrid options.

Start with one need — connect the building once, keep adding value. The same gateway infrastructure can support additional applications and intelligence as the building or portfolio evolves: Energy & HVAC; Equipment & Operations; Occupancy, Environment & Risk; Water Leak Detection; LoRaWAN / distributed-site monitoring; Edge AI detection, correlation & forecasting; AI & Connected Intelligence. Start with the assets that are still dark, then expand applications and intelligence on the same managed edge.

Connect the building once, keep adding value: Energy and HVAC, Equipment and Operations, Occupancy Environment and Risk, Water Leak Detection, LoRaWAN distributed-site monitoring, Edge AI detection correlation and forecasting, and AI and Connected Intelligence.
