Sinclair Digital offers the AGILE‑CORE® platform, an intelligent distributed edge architecture that combines Class 4 Fault‑Managed DC power and 60 Gbps fiber data over a single hybrid cable. By replacing traditional AC power and Ethernet closets with a hub‑and‑spoke system, it reduces construction material, frees building space, and supports high‑density AI‑enabled edge devices while improving energy efficiency.

Problem
Modern buildings rely on legacy AC power and Ethernet architectures that require multiple conditioned IDF closets, extensive copper conduit, and separate power and data cabling. This results in high construction costs, wasted space, inefficient power delivery, limited bandwidth for AI‑enabled edge devices, and increased operational expenses.
Solution
Sinclair Digital’s AGILE‑CORE® platform replaces traditional electrical and data infrastructure with a unified, intelligent distributed edge architecture. It delivers safe, low‑voltage Class 4 Fault‑Managed Power (FMP) and high‑speed fiber data over a single hybrid cable from a central headend to distributed edge points, eliminating the need for on‑site IDF rooms. By providing up to 2 kW of DC power and 60 Gbps data per edge node, the system supports converged IT/OT networks, smart lighting, sensors, Wi‑Fi 7, and other high‑density edge workloads. The architecture reduces material usage (up to 80 % less copper, no conduit), cuts installation labor, and improves energy efficiency by up to 30 % through native DC distribution, while offering a software‑defined, scalable backbone for future upgrades.
Target Audience
Primary customers are building owners, facilities managers, and design‑build firms developing commercial, institutional, or campus‑scale projects that require converged IT/OT infrastructure, high‑density edge computing, and sustainable power solutions.
Features
- Fault‑Managed Power (Class 4) delivers 1500 W per copper pair over distances >1 km with instantaneous fault detection and shutdown
- Integrated Power over Ethernet (PoE) and Extended PoE (X‑PoE®) enable power and data over a single Ethernet cable for lighting, cameras, and IoT devices
- Low‑Voltage Direct Current (LVDC) provides safe, efficient DC distribution below 60 V, eliminating AC‑to‑DC conversion losses at endpoints
- Hub‑and‑spoke architecture centralizes power and data at a headend, removing the need for multiple IDF closets and freeing valuable square footage
- Hybrid structured cabling combines fiber for 60 Gbps data and copper for power in a single lightweight conduit, reducing material costs by up to 80 %
- Plug‑and‑play active components (BITS) and pre‑terminated StrandWise™ cables enable rapid deployment with no specialized labor
- Software‑defined management platform monitors power health, bandwidth utilization, and fault events in real time
