F200 Edge Controller

Simplify your smart building, smart equipment, and IoT solutions with our cost-effective hardware platform designed specifically for FIN Framework and FIN Stack software applications*.

The F200 Edge Controller is the perfect choice for OEMs and distributors looking for a bundled FIN hardware and software package to power mid-market applications in schools, offices, hospitals, and beyond. By bundling the F200 with powerful FIN application suites like FIN microBMS, FIN ECO, and FIN Supervisory & Control, you get the full functionality of an advanced BMS without the need for complex server infrastructure.

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.
