Historic-home compatibility
Preserve an interior’s period character by keeping appropriate latching switch hardware at the wall while placing smart home integration behind the scenes.
In a historic renovation or architect-led residence, the wall switch is part of the architecture. Phantom Controls separates that visible design choice from the automation platform behind it, allowing traditional, designer and vintage switches to participate in a modern smart home.
Traditional wall switch home automation can force a compromise between aesthetics, wiring and platform functionality. Phantom’s goal is to remove that compromise with a simple wall-side transmitter, a shared wired bus and a rack-side gateway that handles the automation ecosystem.
The result is infrastructure that treats the physical switch as an input device—not as the automation platform itself. Explore the wired low-voltage and RS-485 architecture behind the approach.
“Choose the switch for the room. Choose the automation system for the home. Let Phantom connect them.”Phantom Controls product philosophy
Preserve an interior’s period character by keeping appropriate latching switch hardware at the wall while placing smart home integration behind the scenes.
Select switches and plates for material, proportion and feel instead of accepting the proprietary keypad style dictated by a control platform.
Give the project team a wired, serviceable path from each dry-contact wall switch to the centralized automation system.
Refining the TX and RX electronics, enclosure strategy and manufacturing details.
Hardening receiver firmware, local configuration and platform-specific integration paths.
Preparing structured testing with experienced integrators and design-driven projects.
Integrators, architects, designers, platform partners and strategic investors are invited to join the next stage.
