Tridium Updates

As the building automation world evolves, staying current with platform updates is key.

Tridium has officially released Niagara 4.15, the final version in the Niagara 4 series—packed with powerful upgrades and long-term support. Alongside this, they’ve issued important guidance on Wi-Fi support and teased what’s ahead with the upcoming Niagara 5 platform.

Let's break down what’s new, what’s changing, and what you need to prepare for.

Niagara 4.15: It’s Here and It’s the Final 4.x Release

Tridium has officially released Vykon’s Niagara 4.15, marking the last major version of the Niagara 4 platform.

OEM versions to follow shortly. This version will receive long-term support for 3 years and is the final release to support the JACE 8000.

Key improvements include:

• A new HTML5 PX Editor for editing graphics directly in a browser—no Workbench required
• Expanded remote access tools for commissioning, monitoring, and managing stations
• Support for JACE-9000 with Wi-Fi and new badge printing features in Niagara Access
• Updates across interoperability, cybersecurity, Diver updates, and compliance (Modbus, OPC-UA, BACnet, SNMP, and more)

Important Wi-Fi Considerations for JACE Devices

With the introduction of Wi-Fi-enabled JACE-9000s, Tridium has clarified Wi-Fi functionality across their product line.

However, those upgrading a Wi-Fi-enabled JACE 8000 to version 4.15 should take note: Wi-Fi functionality will no longer be supported.

What’s Coming Next: Niagara 5 on the Horizon

With 4.15 being the final release in the Niagara 4 series, all eyes are on Niagara 5, slated for release in Q4 of 2025. 

While OEM-specific versions will follow, the official announcement is expected at the Niagara Summit in 2026. 

The goal? A more scalable, modern, and cyber-resilient platform that builds on Niagara’s legacy of open, vendor-agnostic integration.

Stromquist will keep you updated as more information and vendor-specific versions become available.
