Server rooms are often unoccupied for extended periods. Intelligent controls dim or switch off lighting when no one is present, eliminating heat contribution during the many hours with no human activity.

Approach Detail
Install occupancy sensors at each entry/aisle. Lights off or 20% standby when unoccupied. Schedule for known maintenance windows. Override capability for extended work. Consider security camera coordination for minimal standby level. Track actual occupancy to optimize settings.
Key Fixtures
