of any kind, expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of fitness or
merchantability for a particular purpose. Yanzi Networks may make improvements and/or

time.
Products from Yanzi must be used only for smart office applications as recommended by Yanzi
and MUST NOT be used for critical applications, including, but not limited to, life support, health
and safety, aviation, nuclear, and security applications.
Using your Yanzi products safely
• Never force a connector into a port. If the connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease,
they probably don’t match. Make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have
positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.
• Protect your Yanzi products from direct sunlight
• Keep away the Yanzi products from sources of liquid, e.g. drinks, bathtubs, washbasins,
shower stalls and so on.
About handling
Your Yanzi products may be damaged by improper storage or handling. Take caution not to drop
them during transport and installation. The PIR sensors (i.e. Motion, Motion+ and Presence) are
particularly sensitive to external force, so handle them with extra care.
WARNING: Do not attempt to open or disassemble any Yanzi products. You run the risk of
electric shock and voiding the limited warranty. No user-serviceable parts are inside.

1. Introduction
Yanzi Networks delivers an end-to-end, horizontal, and all-IP software Internet of Things platform.
We offer sensors, gateways, and Cirrus, a cloud platform solution packaged into a Software as a
Service solution (SaaS) for Smart Building applications. The horizontal and all-IP approach
provides a solution that is fast, robust, and transformative.
1.1 Best Technology
All IP technology, all the way to the sensor, ensures powerful scaling to thousands of sensors and
excellent cost efficiency. Yanzi Networks focus on open standards and leverage the widely
deployed protocols such as 4G/LTE, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and the low power "brother" to Wi-Fi, IEEE
802.15.4, which enables battery operated sensors to last for 10+ years.
1.2 Easiest to install
Automatic security provisioning provides best-in-class installation provided by the patent pending
zero-touch configuration. Sensor installation do not need trained installers but can leverage the
employees on site. The optimized power management deliver very long battery life which secure
a minimum of maintenance required once installed.
1.3 Enterprise security
Yanzi Networks combines ease of installation and maintenance with enterprise security. It is a
highly secure solution with all links in Cloud and to Gateway being authenticated with client and
server certificates and all communication is made using SSL encryption. All local communication,
between the sensors and the Gateway, is encrypted for both wired and wireless solutions. Each
sensor has an individual key and can be revoked remotely.
1.4 Cirrus Software as a Service
The Yanzi Cirrus Software as a Service provides Device and Gateway management at a new level.
The Cirrus data model allow access to any data originating from any location with a uniform
interface without the need to understand the sensor details. A secure Gateway-to-Cloud
connector to multiple redundant link servers provides reliable remote access to Gateway.
The Cirrus open API is a JSON over web socket API where all operations are authenticated. The
API supports both hot and cold data paths.

2. Installation Planning
2.1 Infrastructure
The infrastructure has two parts: The Gateway and the IoT network. The Gateway is the brains of
the system and manage all sensors, collects all data, and keeps a communication channel open
to the Cloud. The IoT network is required to enable sensors to communicate with the Gateway.
The IoT network is completely built on IP communication, same as on the Internet. The IoT
network is built using one or more Access Points, just like a WiFi network is built. The Access
Points communicate with the Gateway using standard Ethernet connectivity. For more
information on networks and wireless technologies, please see support sections below.
Before ordering any infrastructure products, the first step is to decide type of Internet connection
and way to build the IoT network according to the following sections.
2.1.1 Connecting the Gateway to Internet
Gateways can be connected to the Internet in two ways:
1) Sharing the Internet connection already available in the building or
2) Using a mobile broadband uplink
Sharing the Internet connection does not mean the IoT network must run on the corporate
network. It means using a separate port on the customer’ firewall to create a separate network
that only provides Internet access.
2.1.2 Building the IoT Network
The IoT Network can be built in two ways.
1) If there are Ethernet cabling available in the building, it may be possible to use a single
Gateway and connect that to one or more Access Points using those Ethernet cables.
2) If there are no Ethernet cabling available and it is not possible to pull new cables, the IoT
network is built using one or more Gateways. Most of the Gateways have access points
capabilities already built-in so a small IoT network can be created around each Gateway.
These Gateways all communicate separately with the Cloud and can be made into a
single virtual location in the Cloud.
2.1.3 Infrastructure Examples
Small system where only one Gateway is enough to create the wireless IoT network. Internet
connectivity can be provided using Ethernet (on the left) or using built-in mobile broadband in the
Gateway (on the right).

Large system reusing Ethernet infrastructure in building and where Internet connectivity can be
provided by sharing a port on the existing firewall or using an external mobile broadband router.
• DHCP addresses are required for the Gateway and the Access Points
• The Gateway communicates with the Access Points using UPnP and SSL over Ethernet
• Internet connection only requires outgoing port 443 and 4445. No inwards connection
required. Gateway connects automatically to the Yanzi server.
• All communication links are encrypted
• PoE switch connects and powers all IoT Access Points (when AP has PoE support)

2.2 Use Cases
Depending on which use case to cover, the type and position of sensors may vary. Two typical
use cases are shown below for space utilization and comfortability.
2.2.1 Space Utilization
For space utilization, Yanzi Motion/Presence sensors are added under the table at each work
desk chair and at each chair of larger conference rooms (typically rooms with 6 chairs or more)
to detect usage. For room usage, Yanzi Motion/Presence or Yanzi Motion+ is placed on the wall
(rooms larger than 20m2 are recommended to use two sensors to make sure the whole room is
covered). Selection between Motion/Presence sensor and Motion+ sensor depends on if
comfortability use case also should be covered as the Motion+ sensor monitors more things than
the Motion/Presence sensor.
Motion/Presence sensors may also be used for restroom utilization to monitor each stall as well
as the washroom.
Footfall cameras may be placed in the ceiling of each entrance to the building and can as well be
placed at the entrance to any area where specific information is wanted. The footfall cameras are
connected to the Gateway using Ethernet/PoE. This proposal do not focus on footfall cameras.
2.2.2 Comfortability
For comfortability, the work environment is monitored using for example CO2, temperature,
humidity, barometric pressure, volatile organic compounds (VOC), ambient light and ambient
noise sensors. Yanzi Comfort sensors are placed in each room (conference room, phone booths,
locker room, etc.) where people are present for longer periods of time as well spread out in open
work spaces. In open work spaces, recommendation is to use one Yanzi Comfort for each 15-25
work desks.
Yanzi Motion+ are used to monitor occupancy and light at work desks (preferably placed in the
ceiling where it covers about 6-8 work desks depending on height of ceiling). It is also used to
monitor utilization of smaller rooms such as conference rooms, phone booths, locker rooms,
storage rooms, kitchens, restrooms, etc.
