1. Tridium Company Profile
Overview
Tridium, a global software and services company, develops and markets a universal software framework targeted
at solving the challenges associated with managing smart devices. Tridium’s core technology, the patented
Niagara Framework ® (or “Niagara”), a Java-based framework, provides a software infrastructure to integrate
diverse systems and devices - regardless of manufacturer or communication protocol - into a unified platform
that can be easily managed in real time over the Internet using a standard web browser. Niagara is being
successfully applied in telecommunications, M2M, enterprise security, energy-services, building-automation,
and industrial-automation markets today.

Tridium was established in 1996, in Richmond, Virginia and acquired in 2005 by Honeywell International.
Telecommunications Applications
Today’s telecommunications providers are managing a complex array of mission-critical systems that require
uncompromised performance and availability. Remote monitoring of these systems in both manned and
unmanned facilities is crucial to maximizing uptime.
Since 2005 Tridium telecommunications power and infrastructure solutions have been deployed with
major service providers throughout the America’s, EMEA and Asia Pacific on over 225 routes and 1800
telecommunications facilities. Our success against established competitors who use a traditional, reactive
approach has been driven by the value of real time data in crisis avoidance and crisis management and the
ability to leverage that data to drive operational efficiencies in an increasingly competitive and customer
demanding telecommunications industry.
At the heart of Tridium’s solution is the EMS-SC-PJ-545-AX, an enhanced NEBS-compliant web-based
management system that monitors temperature, humidity, power, fuel systems, digital contact panels, and all
HVAC systems. Installed in central offices, data centers, Regen Huts,
mechanical rooms, transport sites, remote facilities, and other harsh
environments, the EMS-SC-PJ-545-AX is ideal for telecom providers
who require a rugged and compact remote monitoring controller..
Users can seamlessly integrate LonWorks®, BACnet ®, Modbus®, SNMP
and other standard protocols with legacy systems to provide a unified
real-time controls network that can be controlled and managed from
the enterprise. A browser-based graphical user interface allows operators to view and manipulate underlying
systems without the need for dedicated workstations or client software.
Monitors any and all equipment, from data centers to small unmanned sites
• Complete monitoring solution from the global leader in device-to-enterprise integration so your people can
identify and defuse issues fast
• Crisis avoidance – Real time environmental rate of change data provides the ability to avoid events that can
impact network performance.
• Crisis management – Real time power systems data on generators, fuel and battery systems provides the
ability to perform remote triage and prioritize response plans to minimize downtime.

2. • Unifies and organizes all data into actionable information accessible via any standard web browser
• Optimizes network uptime (fewer events and reduced downtime)
• Reduces maintenance costs (fewer on-site visits)
• Pre-engineered solution for fast, easy deployment – small solutions installed within hours, with larger

solutions installed within mere days
• Utilizes your existing infrastructure for data communications as well as discreet sensors
• Adds global functionality and extends useful life of existing devices and systems
• Supports lower cost off the shelf commercial or industrial products for real time instrumentation
Leveraging the performance and reliability of NiagaraAX® for telecommunications
Tridium’s integrated telecom solution is built on the NiagaraAX Framework ®, the world’s leading automation
infrastructure technology and device-to-enterprise software platform. Today, there are close to 225,000
Niagara-based products like the JACE® operating worldwide in 45 countries and 14,000 certified Niagara
Framework professionals.
In addition to Telecommunications, Tridium’s Frameworks are also used in the following applications:
M2M/Smart Devices/Smart Services
• The Niagara and Sedona Framework are enabling the connection, monitoring and management of smart
devices and systems and advancing them into the Internet of Things.
• Niagara and Sedona make it simple for devices, machines and systems to connect to each other and
work together.
Security Management
• The Niagara Framework is an open development platform for security automation and integration
including access control, visitor management, video and intrusion.
• Niagara enables unparalleled interoperability within traditional security environments and extends
seamlessly with today’s diverse facility systems including environmental controls, lighting, energy
management, fire and video.
Energy Management and Information
• The Niagara Framework is a major player in making buildings energy efficient, reducing energy usage
and driving down costs. Niagara is used to deploy optimal energy information and environmental
management strategies.
• Niagara is a leading enabling infrastructure technology to connect, manage, and analyze data for energy
consuming devices and systems.
Intelligent Buildings, Automation & Control
• The Niagara Framework is at the forefront of how the world operates and manages buildings.
• Niagara is the foundation for creating Intelligent Buildings—ones that use less energy, have lower
operating costs, are safer, contribute to sustainable environments and deliver significant ROI to building
owners and facility management.
