Supported Protocols

Novant edge nodes support the following protocols for device communication:

Protocol	Description
BACnet IP	The most common building automation protocol. Used for direct IP-based communication with controllers.
BACnet MSTP	Serial-based BACnet communication. Requires a BACnet MSTP gateway to bridge to the IP network.
Modbus TCP	IP-based Modbus communication. Common for meters, VFDs, and some BMS controllers.
Jasper	Open source integration protocol for Niagara-based systems.
OPC UA	Open standard for industrial data exchange. Used by newer BMS and energy management platforms.
Kaiterra	Cloud-to-cloud integration for Kaiterra indoor air quality (IAQ) sensors and monitors.
