Introduction

MetaLynx™ is a turnkey edge-powered IoT platform that enables enterprises to deliver real-time safety, compliance, and building intelligence to commercial and industrial customers - without the complexity of piecemeal integration. Powered by the VeeaONE™ platform and deployed on the VeeaHub Edge Server family, MetaLynx™ provides rapid, scalable environmental and operational intelligence for workplaces, campuses, logistics hubs, healthcare facilities, and smart buildings.

From air quality monitoring to advanced asset tracking, MetaLynx™ transforms any environment into an intelligent, compliant, and safer workspace with turnkey IoT deployment and proactive, AI-powered alerts.

Deploying intelligent safety and compliance systems shouldn’t take months. With MetaLynx™, you can give your customers fully operational air quality monitoring, asset tracking, access control, and predictive alerting in a matter of hours. From small facilities to enterprise-scale rollouts, MetaLynx™ adapts to each environment with modular components, built-in scalability, and zero-friction deployment.

Challenges

Regulatory pressure, workforce safety, and the need for real-time operational visibility have made traditional building and site management tools outdated. Businesses across industries are struggling to integrate fragmented systems for safety, access, compliance, and asset tracking—often with high upfront costs and complex integration timelines.

MetaLynx™ provides a faster, more cost-effective alternative—giving mobile enterprises the opportunity to deliver a comprehensive workplace intelligence and automation solution as a service.

• Precision Asset Trackers: Real-time location and condition monitoring and utilization insights for equipment, inventory, and valuable assets.
• Intelligent Access Control: Automated access control with AI-based authorization, smart locks, and access monitoring for enhanced security and restricted zones.
• Automated Alert & Notification System: Instant notifications via mobile, email, and dashboard, and integrated public address systems for critical events.

Portable Containerized Niagara

Tridium is the developer of Niagara Framework® — a comprehensive software platform for the development and deployment of connected products and device-to-enterprise applications. It serves as a central console to connect real-time operational data to the people and systems that manage workflows in smart buildings, data centers, industrial processes, smart cities, and other aspects of commercial enterprises.

Veea, an authorized Niagara Framework Reseller, is the only Tridium partner to containerize and run Niagara at the edge in deployments – removing wired connectivity in greenfield and brownfield deployments. Combining the capabilities of MetaLynx and Containerized Portable Niagara allows a building owner / manager to segregate complex, IT-managed environments from the collection and management of IoT data from the same location. This is performed by securely connecting to a customers existing LAN while simultaneously maintaining a WAN-based cloud connection. This provides optimal flexibility for Multiple Network Scenarios and corresponding configurations extending Niagara-like deployments to use cases with Wi-Fi, LoRaWAN, MQTT, Modbus RTU, BACNet and Zigbee. Other benefits of MetaLynx and The Niagara Framework include:

• Connectivity Mesh: VeeaHubs provide Wi-Fi coverage for properties when correctly spaced, a new premium service for Niagara installations.
• LoRaWAN Gateway Integration: Optional integration with Chirpstack
• Centralized Remote Management: Veea Control Center (VCC) provides remote management over different firmware versions.
• Backup and Restore: VCC supports centralized backup and restore, using templates for the VeeaHub setup.
• Application Control: Control of applications, including those in Docker containers
• Docker Integration: Ability to run and manage multiple docker containers in a mesh.
• Wireless Meshing: An advantage for brownfield installations, eliminating the need for wires. For greenfield installations, VeeaHubs with Niagara accelerate building bootup.
• Integrated 4G/5G Backhaul: Veea offers the option of integrated 4G/5G backhaul connectivity.
• Value-added Services: Veea ecosystem offers additional services like SecureConnect vTBA (Wi-Fi Slicing), AdEdge, providing upsell opportunities to distributors, resellers, and system integrators

Use Cases

Benefits

• Rapid Deployment, Instant Value: MetaLynx™ is a complete ecosystem, operational within 8 hours of installation. No complicated IT setup, no lengthy rollout process—just plug, deploy, and activate insights.
• AI-Powered Safety & Alerts: The platform detects air quality issues, unauthorized access, equipment misuse, and safety risks in real time. Intelligent edge inference enables instant, context-aware notifications without round-tripping to the cloud.
• Simplified Compliance & Audit Readiness: Generate live reports and maintain digital audit trails to meet OSHA, EPA, or industry-specific safety and environmental standards.
• Precision Asset Intelligence: Track tools, equipment, and personnel with granular indoor/outdoor positioning and utilization analytics—reducing shrinkage and improving efficiency.
