Cygnus to Demonstrate the Power of Wireless Fire Detection at London Build

  • 28th Oct 2025

We will be celebrating the two-year anniversary of achieving EN 54 certification with SmartNet, the world’s first fully EN 54 certified and 100% wireless fire detection and alarm system, on stand M50 at London Build 2025 from 19-20 November.

SmartNet is a fully EN 54 certified and BS5839-1 compliant system that is up to twenty times faster to install than wired systems. Installation comes with minimal disruption to buildings and people, significantly reducing the downtime and disturbance to daily operations. The SmartNet network is built on a combination of radio devices, operating on a patented self-forming, self-healing wireless mesh network with multipath network redundancy utilising innovative channel hopping technology, delivering a reliable and robust solution.

“We’re delighted to be back at London Build. We had a great event last year and we were pleased with the feedback we received about the SmartNet fire detection and alarm system. We are looking forward to connecting with the industry again and delving deeper into our wireless system and our full range of accessories. We are excited to welcome visitors to stand M50.”

SmartNet-Pro offers a scalable solution with the capability for each panel to connect 511 devices and up to 96 zones, with networking of up to 5 panels, providing a combined solution of over 2500 devices. Whilst SmartNet-Pro caters to the larger scales of application, SmartNet-100 provides all the key benefits of SmartNet-Pro in a more cost-effective solution, designed to support a maximum of 100 devices. Based on this nature, SmartNet-100 is best suited for small to medium sized applications where the scalability of the SmartNet-Pro is not required.

 

The Cygnus team will also be on hand at the event to talk through the Cygnus Accessories range, which includes:

  • Cygnus Configuration Software Tool and Mesh Analyser simplifies system setup and provides complete system visibility, including radio communication paths, signal integrity, and diagnostics. Advanced cause and effect functionality can be set up through the configurator. It delivers a more efficient installation and commissioning process, ensuring installers and end-users have a robust and stable network from the outset.
  • Portable Programming Unit (PPU) helps with the planning and deployment of the SmartNet system. The PPU allows installers to deliver firmware and configuration updates to devices wirelessly whilst they are on site, making the process faster and more efficient for areas that are hard to access.
  • Site Survey kit streamlines the planning and deployment of SmartNet fire detection and alarm systems. It allows installers to deploy three bespoke detectors that replicate the mesh network to ensure the suitability of the system for the environment.
