Verizon
OVERVIEW
With over 1,500 employees and close to 4 million data circuits, the Verizon Building is a constant hub of organizational activity. Because employee productivity directly correlates to their comfort, and data processing power lies in environmental quality, the building has an inherent need for state-of-the-art automation systems. Even multi-use rooms, offices, and storage facilities for various equipment couldn’t stop TEC from integrating a cutting edge system throughout the building. Standardized to a LonWorks-based open-system protocol from Echelon Corporation and featuring temperature sensors, variable frequency controllers, and WonderWare programming, the end result is a scalable system optimized to expand as Verizon does.
