F200 Edge Controller

Simplify smart buildings, smart equipment and IoT with a cost-effective hardware platform for FIN Framework and FIN Stack software applications*. The F200 Edge Controller is ideal for OEMs and distributors that require a bundled FIN hardware and software package for mid market applications such as schools, offices, hospitals and more. Bundle the F200 with FIN application suites such as FIN Supervisory & Control, FIN microBMS and FIN ECO and enable the full functionality of a powerful BMS, but without the need for server infrastructure.

FIN Framework continues to be hardware agnostic - the F200 offers distributors and OEMs the option to have a native embedded edge device. View our hardware compatibility information for further options.

The F200 is available to OEMs globally to embed their own FIN-based product. In addition, distributors in North America and the UK can bundle with the FIN Stack brand.

Both FIN Framework or FIN Stack will need to be downloaded automatically after commissioning from the Siemens Cloud. This allows for easy updates on the FIN software.

OEM partners can have the F200 with their own-branding if required.
