History of Knx
KNX was created over 30 years ago to facilitate the integration of diverse applications from different vendors of smart home and building technology, into one common project. Of the many strengths that KNX possesses, the two most visionary, that overarch everything, have to be 1) the delivery of reliable, robust and seamless interoperability between products from different manufacturers; and 2) backward compatibility between systems. In effect, they amount to the same thing – guaranteed interoperability across brands and time. In other words, as KNX strives forward, it will not abandon you. It will not leave you behind. Rather, it will support you into the future with even more possibilities for interoperability, be that within the realm of classic KNX twisted pair (TP) connections, or the wider and faster world of IP networks.
