What Blynclight 5 does

Know when to connect.
Know when to give space.

A visible status light helps colleagues know when someone is available or needs uninterrupted time. For shared desks and phone booths, it can also show whether a space is available before someone walks over.

Availability at a glance.

Blynclight 5 puts status where people already look: on the desk or the booth.

  • For people. Make availability visible to colleagues.
  • For desks. Show which desks are available or reserved.
  • For phone booths. Help people spot an available booth.

The busy light without a laptop.

Blynclight 5 is a cloud-connected busy light from Embrava. It stays at the workstation instead of plugging into a laptop, and uses color to show a person's availability or a desk's status. Everyone on the floor can see who's free to talk, and which desks and phone booths are free before they walk over.

Built on Blynclight, the original busy light, Blynclight 5 keeps the matte cube and full RGB lighting in a form factor made for desks and phone booths.

Your status. On display.

Blynclight 5 uses color to show a person's or a desk's status from anywhere on the floor.

Blynclight 5 FAQ

Blynclight 5 is a cloud-connected busy light from Embrava. It stays at a workstation and uses color to show whether a person is available, busy or focusing, or whether a desk or phone booth is available, reserved, or in use, synced with your workplace platform. It's built for hot-desking and hybrid offices.

A cloud-connected busy light gets its status from the cloud instead of a USB connection to a computer. Blynclight 5 is Embrava's cloud-connected busy light: it stays at the desk and shows availability without plugging into anyone's laptop.

No. Blynclight 5 connects to the cloud and stays at the workstation, so it doesn't need a laptop or a desktop app. It only needs power and a network connection.

Blynclight is a USB busy light. It plugs into a user's computer and shows that person's presence from apps like Microsoft Teams and Zoom. Blynclight 5 is cloud-connected, stays at the desk, and shows a person's availability, or a desk's or phone booth's booking status, from your workplace platform.

Both show desk status. Desk Sign adds a 2.8" touchscreen and lets employees check in with a badge, NFC phone, or QR code. Blynclight 5 is a light-only indicator built for at-a-glance visibility, and it can also show a person's availability.

On Blynclight 5, green means a person or desk is available. For people, red means busy or focusing and amber means away. For desks and phone booths, amber means reserved and red means in use.

Blynclight 5 integrates with Microsoft Places, Robin, Eptura, OfficeSpace, ServiceNow, Envoy, Appspace, Korbyt, 22Miles, Johnson Controls, and Zoom.
