Technical details
The Helinx 8 KNX Smart Control Panel is a high-performance, industrial-grade HMI designed for advanced KNX installations. With full KNX System B support—including TP (Twisted Pair), RF (Radio Frequency), and IP protocols in a single integrated device—it eliminates the need for external gateways while enabling seamless interoperability across complex, distributed systems.
Engineered to handle large-scale deployments, Helinx 8 supports over 1,000 KNX datapoints, making it ideal for multi-zone residential, commercial, and hospitality environments. Its embedded architecture ensures stable, low-latency communication across all KNX media, providing reliable real-time control of lighting, HVAC, shading, security, and custom automation scenes.
The 8-inch high-resolution capacitive touchscreen delivers a responsive, intuitive user interface, while the IP65-rated front panel and Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability allow for flexible installation in demanding environments with reduced wiring complexity.
-

Embedded Processing Architecture
Dedicated onboard processing ensures deterministic performance and low-latency KNX communication -
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
IEEE 802.3af compliant for simplified deployment and centralized power management -
Robust Environmental Protection
IP65-rated front panel for dust and water resistance, suitable for commercial and semi-outdoor use -
Real-Time Control & Visualization
Instant control of lighting, HVAC, blinds, security systems, and scene logic via KNX group communication -
Flexible Integration
Compatible with ETS configuration tools and standard KNX system architecture
Helinx 8 is purpose-built for system integrators and KNX professionals delivering high-end smart building solutions. It is particularly suited for luxury residences, commercial offices, and hospitality projects requiring:
- Multi-protocol KNX integration without added hardware layers
- Scalable system architecture with high datapoint density
- Reliable, always-on control interfaces in demanding environments
Compared to alternatives such as Peaknx (Windows-based systems with higher power consumption and maintenance overhead) or Basalte (design-focused panels with limited KNX media support), Helinx 8 provides a more technically versatile, efficient, and deployment-friendly solution.
