{"product_id":"crestron-sw-fusion-p-l","title":"Crestron SW-FUSION-P-L – Fusion On-Premises Software, Unlimited Rooms, Lifetime","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Crestron SW-FUSION-P-L is an on-premises deployment of Crestron Fusion® room scheduling and AV management software with unlimited room coverage and a lifetime maintenance term. Unlike the cloud-hosted variant, SW-FUSION-P-L is installed and operated on customer-managed servers, giving organizations full control over data residency, network isolation, and platform customization. It is the preferred deployment model for enterprises with strict data governance requirements, government agencies with air-gapped or restricted networks, and large organizations that prefer to manage their own infrastructure rather than rely on a cloud provider. The lifetime maintenance term means no recurring subscription fees for the software itself, though server infrastructure and ongoing Crestron control system programming remain the customer’s responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSW-FUSION-P-L delivers the same two-component software suite as the cloud version — Fusion RV® (RoomView) for AV resource monitoring and scheduling, and Fusion EM® (Energy Management) for real-time energy tracking and environmental control integration. Because the platform runs on customer-owned servers, all data remains within the organization’s own network boundaries, which is a critical requirement for many government, healthcare, financial, and defense deployments. Calendar integration spans Microsoft Exchange Server®, Microsoft 365®, Google Calendar™, IBM® Notes®, CollegeNET® 25Live®, and Ad Astra®, with in-room touch screens allowing on-the-spot reservations from the same calendar system. The help desk module supports remote device control, real-time alerts, and in-room attendee help requests. Usage, occupancy, and device reports connect to a Microsoft Power BI® dashboard using the included default template, enabling facility managers to build custom analytics from Fusion data. The platform is compatible with Crestron’s .AV Framework™ software for programming-free room control deployment. Because SW-FUSION-P-L carries a lifetime maintenance term, organizations avoid the recurrent three-year renewal cycle required by the cloud SKU. However, the customer assumes full responsibility for server hardware, operating system maintenance, database administration, backup, and any custom control system programming. Crestron specifies Windows Server 2016 (64-bit) or later as the minimum server OS, with dual-core Intel® Xeon® 2.8 GHz processors (minimum 4 CPUs), 8 GB RAM, and at least 250 GB of available data drive space as the minimum server hardware configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOn-Premises Deployment\u003c\/strong\u003e — Hosted on customer-managed servers;

SW-FUSION-C-3 is hosted by Crestron on Microsoft Azure, covers up to 250 rooms, and requires renewal every three years. The on-premises version is preferred where data sovereignty, network isolation, or large room counts make cloud deployment impractical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes “lifetime” maintenance mean the software receives updates forever?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, as long as Crestron continues to develop and support the Fusion platform. The lifetime term means the customer is not required to purchase a renewal license to continue receiving maintenance updates. Customers remain responsible for managing their server infrastructure and applying updates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat server hardware is required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCrestron specifies a minimum of two dual-core Intel Xeon 2.8 GHz processors (4 CPUs total), 8 GB RAM, and at least 250 GB of available disk space on Windows Server 2016 or later. A 1 GbE network interface is required on the server. Organizations should size server hardware based on total room count and anticipated concurrent user load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the on-premises deployment be isolated from the internet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Because SW-FUSION-P-L runs on customer infrastructure, it can be deployed on a fully isolated internal network with no external connectivity. Calendar integrations with Microsoft Exchange or Google may require specific network access depending on organizational configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho maintains the Fusion servers and programming?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe customer is responsible for server maintenance, operating system updates, database administration, and backup. Crestron control system programming for each room is also the customer’s responsibility, typically handled by an authorized Crestron dealer or in-house programming team.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a per-room licensing cost after purchase?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. SW-FUSION-P-L includes unlimited rooms with no incremental per-room fees. Additional rooms can be added to the deployment without purchasing supplemental licenses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crestron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47759600943340,"sku":"SW-FUSION-P-L","price":5500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/7982\/4364\/files\/master_photo_a-SW-FUSION-P.png?v=1781810558","url":"https:\/\/creationnetworks.net\/products\/crestron-sw-fusion-p-l","provider":"Creation Networks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
