When we set out to install a smart home system, one of our biggest concerns is future-proofing. Will the devices we buy today still be compatible with new technologies in 5 or 10 years’ time? Becker’s latest move demonstrates its commitment to sustainable and value-retaining investments. The CentralControl CC41 control unit has moved to the forefront of modern building automation with a free software update.
What is the Matter standard?
In short: the common language of smart homes. The Matter a manufacturer-independent communication protocol that ensures devices from different brands can work together securely and reliably. It eliminates market fragmentation, meaning the technology does not become obsolete but remains integrable in the long term.
A world first on Becker’s desk
Becker leaves nothing to chance when it comes to development: the CC41 update is powered by the world’s first certified Matter® stack (software package). This technological milestone guarantees maximum stability and security.
A Becker CentralControl It has already offered premium features:
- Data is stored entirely locally on the device (no cloud exposure).
- Secure remote access.
- Automatic summer/winter time change and power cut protection.
- Timer programmes and holiday mode.
With the Matter extension, the CC41 has evolved from a more closed, proprietary control environment into an extremely open, networked platform. This move offers enormous flexibility not only to end users but also to professional installation partners: the value and future-proofing of already installed systems have increased overnight. Don’t let your smart home remain trapped in the past!
