Abstract

A network (2) utilizing power conductor distribution and incorporating infra-red (IR) radiation nodes having IR transducers (4, 6, 8). The IR transducers are located in ceiling-mounted lighting fixtures (16, 18, 20) and are connected to power terminals in the lighting fixtures both for powering the IR transducers in operation and for communicating network information. The transducers are thus positioned optimally for good IR communication and require no additional cabling.
