Dendo Systems, an Australian manufacturer of motor and control technology for automated window coverings, debuts its Power over Ethernet drapery motor at CEDIA Expo (Launchpad, booth #3246). The new motor forms part of the company’s broader RENKEI Platform, which brings direct Ethernet power, control, and real-time position feedback to motorized roller shades and draperies.
The RENKEI Platform combines network-native PoE roller-shade and curtain motors with the RENKEI Processor, which simplifies motor discovery, limit setting, and grouping in addition to providing an open API that enables integration with third-party automation systems.
Dendo Systems’ architecture treats every shade motor as a true network device. Instead of proprietary motor-control wiring and centralized power panels, each motor connects directly to standard Ethernet and PoE infrastructure. An internal energy buffer keeps the required PoE budget to approximately three watts per motor while supporting individual addressing, synchronized control, and real-time position feedback.
Booth visitors will experience a RENKEI PoE motor get plugged in, automatically appear in the commissioning interface, and then get configured, grouped, and controlled live.
