Thread’s single and dual circuit technologies bring the most cost-effective power solution to different settings, depending on the floorpan’s power needs. With single circuit technology, power can be distributed throughout simple ancillary and conference spaces. Dual circuit technology distributes more power with fewer infeeds, ideal for high-power users and larger applications. Both single and dual technologies offer the flexibility needed to accommodate changing configurations in any space.
