Smart buildings run best on technology that keeps pace with innovation. A special upgrade program is now available that makes it easier for organizations currently using JACE 8000 controllers to step into the next generation with the JACE 9000.
This promotion, running until June 27, 2026, allows eligible users to transfer their existing Niagara Framework® license from a JACE 8000 to a JACE 9000 for only a license transfer fee, eliminating the need to purchase a full new license.
What Makes JACE 9000 Different?

- Greater Processing Power – Designed to handle more complex, data-rich building automation needs.
- Stronger Data Protection – Built to meet today’s cybersecurity standards.
- Prepared for Tomorrow – Ready for Niagara 5, expected in Summer 2026. (Note: JACE 8000 hardware will not support Niagara 5.)
- Streamlined Transition – Existing licenses and configurations move forward with minimal disruption.
