Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about how Casambi works, cost savings vs. wired systems, installation in new builds and renovations, and why Otherwise is Finland’s trusted Casambi partner.
Casambi is a wireless lighting control system that turns ordinary light fixtures into smart, individually addressable units — controlled from your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
Every Casambi-enabled fixture communicates directly with your device — no separate hub, no central controller, no gateway required for basic use. You can adjust brightness, colour temperature, group fixtures, save scenes, and set schedules — all from the free Casambi app on iOS or Android. The system also works with smartwatches and wireless battery-free wall switches, so you’re never dependent on a phone to turn on the lights.
Casambi typically reduces project costs by 15-40% compared to traditional wired control systems — the savings come from labour, cabling, and installation flexibility.
Traditional wired dimming and control requires kilometres of cable, dedicated control lines, drilling through walls and concrete, and hours of electrical labour. Casambi eliminates almost all of that: fixtures communicate wirelessly, switches are battery-free, and the entire system is configured through software. You can also reposition fixtures or reprogram groups later without touching a single wire — something impossible with a wired system.
Yes — Casambi is one of the few systems that works equally well in both scenarios. In renovations it is often the only realistic path to full smart-lighting control.
In new builds, Casambi lets you plan flexible lighting scenarios from day one without committing to fixed control cabling — designs stay adaptable throughout construction. In renovation projects, where re-wiring existing walls is expensive or impossible, Casambi drops directly into existing electrical topology: no new cabling, no wall damage, no dust. This makes it the standard choice for offices, residential upgrades, hotels, and heritage buildings.
Yes. Casambi-ready drivers can be integrated into most existing fixtures, and the system connects seamlessly to broader smart-home automation.
You don’t need to abandon fixtures you love — Casambi-enabled drivers and modules can be retrofitted into most existing lights, keeping the aesthetics you chose while adding smart control. Casambi also integrates with popular home automation platforms (via gateways when needed), so lighting becomes part of a unified system with blinds, HVAC, or security. For architects and designers, this is the reason Casambi has become the de facto standard: it doesn’t force product choices, it adapts to them.
Otherwise is an official Casambi partner in Finland — we don’t just install the system, we design the entire lighting scheme around it.
Most electricians can install Casambi hardware. Very few can design a lighting scheme that fully uses what Casambi enables: layered scenes for evening/day/work, sunrise-simulation schedules, tunable-white circadian settings, seamless integration with our own custom LED fixtures. Otherwise combines a Casambi-native design approach with in-house fixture manufacturing — so your Casambi system controls lights that are built specifically for it. One partner, one aesthetic, one point of contact from concept to commissioning.
As an official Casambi partner in Finland, Otherwise designs the entire lighting scheme — custom fixtures, wireless control, scenes and schedules — as one unified system.
