SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 3, 2025--

Brilliant NextGen Inc., a leader in smart connected home solutions, today announces the launch of its PoE control panel based on the second-generation architecture designed exclusively for professional installers and integrators. The new platform offers simplified installation, enterprise-grade reliability, and expanded smart home integration, making it easier for integrators to deliver premium experiences to homeowners, single-family communities, and multifamily developers.

"This launch represents our continued commitment to empowering professionals with future-ready technology," said Lisa Petrucci, CEO of Brilliant. "By leveraging PoE, we’re not only simplifying deployments but also expanding the value proposition of smart home infrastructure."

The system utilizes PoE to deliver both power and data through a single CAT5/6 cable, ensuring stable bandwidth and consistent performance in high-density or high-traffic network environments. Installation is streamlined, as the device does not require a licensed electrician, reducing overall deployment time and cost. Unlike traditional switches restricted to gang box locations, the unit supports flexible mounting at optimal eye level or other preferred positions to improve usability.

"The ability to install Brilliant PoE control panels without being limited to existing switch locations makes it simple to design a consistent, premium experience across hundreds of units,” stated Bill Meyers, Managing Partner at SKBM. “Combined with remote monitoring and support, we can deliver modern smart home living at scale while keeping installation time and costs under control.”

Available exclusively to professional integrators, it expands PoE-based control infrastructure and is engineered for direct replacement of legacy PoE platforms, providing a straightforward path for system upgrades and migrations. Brilliant’s new PoE smart home controls, available in 5 packs, will only be available through Brilliant professional integrators.

“We’ve deployed Brilliant in thousands of homes across Dallas-Fort Worth, and the response has been phenomenal,” said David Berman, CEO of ESD Technologies. “Homeowners love the simplicity, and we value how seamlessly the system brings the smart home together. With the new PoE platform, we can now deliver that same Brilliant experience across even more environments and projects, ensuring the best possible outcome for our clients.”

The Brilliant PoE smart home control debuts at CEDIA Expo/Commercial Integrator Expo (Sept. 3-6, Denver, CO) and will be available to Brilliant authorized partners in North America starting in Q4 2025.
