Learn more about SmartNet-Pro
Utilising the renowned and patented Cygnus protocol, SmartNet-Pro offers a reliable, robust and adaptable solution that is up to twenty times faster to install than wired systems.
The Made In Britain registered solution rapidly detects and alerts users to signs of smoke or fire, whilst being resilient to false alarms.
SmartNet-Pro is a fully wireless, scalable, intelligent fire and emergency detection and alarm system. The powerful mesh network and sensitive radio receiver reduce the need for radio surveys, speed-up installation and provide a permanent solution for built environments. SmartNet-Pro has the capability for 511 devices and up to 96 zones to operate on one wireless system, with networking of up to 5 panels available, providing a combined solution of over 2,500 devices. A SmartNet network is built on a combination of radio devices, operating on a self-forming, self-healing mesh network.
SmartNet-Pro from Cygnus is a highly reliable wireless fire detection and alarm system which meets all relevant product standards.

100% Wireless
As an EN 54 certified and BS 5839 compliant system, SmartNet eliminates the need for fire resistant cabling, restrictions on device locations and multiple loops, which need to be protected against failure. There’s also no requirement for cable damage mitigation, no combustible fixings, no possibility of inadequate wiring and no risk of circuit overload. There is no need for wired boosters, translators or any other wired element, which removes the often stressful first fix stage of an installation. To speed up installation still further, the wireless mesh network system also requires no gateway expanders or loop-powered translating devices. In addition, the lack of substantial lengths of cabling contribute to a lower carbon footprint for your installation, as does a reduced requirement for engineers to be on site.
Reliable and Robust
SmartNet runs on Lithium battery-powered radio devices as part of a robust, self-healing mesh network technology, in which the infrastructure nodes connect directly, dynamically and non-hierarchically to provide highly efficient and robust network performance. It provides at least two communication paths (and often more) between each wireless device which – together with innovative channel-hopping technology which automatically sends a signal along the strongest path – ensures optimum network reliability and robustness. In addition, devices have a long radio range of up to 350m (unobstructed) using an omnidirectional antenna.
Easy to Install
By eliminating the need for costly and time-consuming cabling, SmartNet dramatically reduces engineering time and overall project costs. This makes it ideal both for retrofit installations – where disruption to occupants is minimised – and for new build where project timescales are often extremely pressurised. The installation process is further enhanced by our new Mesh Analyser tool, read more about this feature above.
Easy to Adapt
The benefits of SmartNet don’t stop after installation. The absence of cabling makes it far easier to move and relocate detectors or other devices. It’s also far simpler to extend a wireless fire detection and alarm system. So wireless systems are ideal for buildings likely to be extended or renovated in the near future.
Scalable and Easy to Configure
The SmartNet range enables installers to design 32, 64, and 96 zone panel options. SmartNet-Pro has a panel capability of 511 devices and up to 96 zones, with the ability to network up to 5 panels providing a combined solution of over 2000 devices. The SmartNet configuration software includes system design and full cause and effect functionality. The configuration tool runs on any Windows device and communicates to remote devices through a hard-wired or wireless connection.
Easy to Use
The touchscreen control panel offers a comprehensive overview of the system, as well as the capability to send reports and alerts about alarms, low battery and faults, which are all identifiable by location.
EN 54 Certified
The SmartNet system comprises a range of EN 54 compliant fire detection and alarm devices, suitable for permanent installation across all types of building environment.

Mesh Analyser - Enhanced Diagnostic Tool
The Cygnus Mesh Analyser software provides a graphical display of a SmartNet fire detection and alarm system network, revealing mesh signal strengths and connection paths for each device in the system. The Mesh Analyser interrogates the device mesh showing the connections paths and audit trail of all current and previous network connections. As well as visualising the mesh status, installers can download a PDF report which outlines the network health with suggested actions that could strengthen the mesh network. The free software is easily downloadable from Cygnus’ customer support portal and loaded with the mesh file from the SmartNet control panel. The outcome is a more efficient installation and commissioning process, ensuring installers and end-users have a robust and stable network.
Site Survey Kit
The Site Survey kit allows installers to deploy three bespoke detectors that replicate the mesh network to ensure the suitability of the system for the environment. It is particularly helpful in areas of high attention. During the site survey, the Cygnus team will demonstrate the signal strengths between the control panel and devices and a visual indicator will confirm the connection via multiple paths, providing guidance to the correct number of devices and their location throughout the site. By ensuring that the wireless sensor network is set up for maximum reliability and efficiency, it saves time during installation and on future call outs.
Portable Programming Unit (PPU)
The PPU allows installers to run firmware updates and update device configurations wirelessly while they are on site, making the whole process faster and more efficient for areas that are hard to access. The installer simply selects the devices that need to be updated, which are then dropped into a programming mode, and updated before rejoining the main mesh network seamlessly.
