In modern facilities — whether hospitals, corporate offices, or industrial plants — knowing exactly where your assets and people isn’t just helpful, it’s essential. But traditional room-level tracking systems have often required a web of scanners, complex installations, and hefty budgets — turning a simple visibility goal into a major project.

At Sentrax, we decided to change that.

Introducing the Sentrax Bi-Directional Beacon — a revolutionary approach to room-level awareness that’s as intelligent as it is elegant. It delivers powerful, reliable insights with far less hardware, far less effort, and far greater scalability.

The Problem with “More Hardware”

For years, BLE-based tracking systems operated under one rule: one scanner per room.
It worked — but at a cost. Every room needed dedicated infrastructure, every installation meant more wiring, more configuration, more maintenance. The result? High expense, long rollout times, and limited flexibility.

That model simply doesn’t fit the pace or scale of today’s connected environments.

The Sentrax Breakthrough

Our Bi-Directional Beacon reimagines how visibility works — by making each room smart on its own.
Every beacon serves as both a scanner and a broadcaster, creating a self-aware network that communicates seamlessly with a central gateway.

Here’s how it works:

• Each beacon scans nearby BLE tags, capturing signal strength and device identity.
• It then transmits a compact summary packet — its own ID plus the tags it detected — to a nearby gateway.
• The gateway aggregates and sends the data securely to the Sentrax Solix Engine, our intelligent web-based platform.
• Within seconds, you know which tag is in which room, with accurate signal data to understand proximity and dwell time.

The outcome is elegantly simple: room-level precision with minimal infrastructure.

Why It Changes Everything

• Less Hardware, Lower Cost: One gateway now covers multiple rooms — a fraction of the traditional infrastructure.
• Rapid Deployment: Small footprint, plug-and-play beacons, instant scalability.
• Power-Efficient Design: Optimized scan and transmit intervals for long battery life.
• Versatile Applications: Equally effective in healthcare, education, offices, manufacturing, and construction.
• Reliable Insights: Real-time detection, low latency, and secure data handling.

It’s location intelligence, simplified — without sacrificing depth or accuracy.
