McWong’s TruBlu™ Bluetooth mesh Fixture Controller with Long Range Antenna Earns BrightStar Award for Innovation

May 23, 2023

Sacramento, Calif. May 23, 2023—McWong International, a leading innovator in Bluetooth® mesh technology, announced today that its TruBlu™ Fixture Controller with Long Range Antenna was recognized for performance, reliability, efficiency, ease of integration/use, and innovation with an LEDs Magazine BrightStar Award. The award was announced today, the opening day of Lightfair 2023.
 
An esteemed and experienced panel of judges from the LED and lighting design and manufacturing community recognized McWong as an honoree. “On behalf of the LEDs Magazine BrightStar Awards panel, I would like to congratulate McWong on their high-scoring honoree status,” said LEDs Magazine Editorial Director Wanda Lau. “This competitive program allows LEDs Magazine to celebrate and recognize the most innovative products of the past year that are advancing LED and solid-state lighting technology into various applications.”
 
The TruBlu Bluetooth mesh Fixture Controller with Long Range Antenna, developed with technology partner Silvair, offers flexible yet powerful networked lighting control outdoors. Since hardwiring is cost-prohibitive for outdoor applications, the introduction of a long-range (900ft) Bluetooth mesh wireless controller that can be integrated directly into a wide range of commercially available fixtures eliminates “range anxiety.” Together with features like continuous dimming, DLC certification, zone and luminaire level lighting control options, this controller enables cost-effective Bluetooth mesh control for outdoor lighting.
 
Stephen Zhou, Executive Vice President, notes, “We are delighted to be recognized along with the other honorees for this advancement in lighting control. We continue striving to deliver innovations that make a difference for designers and builders today and well into the future.”
 
McWong is exhibiting at Lightfair from May 23-25 at the Javits Center in New York City in Booth 2452.
