BluefinLED has introduced its latest innovation for the marine market: the Mini IYS.
Raymarine is the first to integrate this SMART lighting control technology into its products. This compact and user-friendly gateway allows owners to control underwater lighting effortlessly, eliminating the usual clutter and complexity.
Designed to streamline helm installations and free up space for small leisure craft and tenders, the Mini IYS links BluefinLED’s advanced underwater lights directly to a vessel’s multi-function display (MFD). With a single Ethernet connection, the system delivers a clean, graphical interface that’s simple to install and effortless to use.
Owners want a simple, elegant way to control their lights through the systems they already trust. With Raymarine as our first collaboration, the Mini IYS delivers exactly that.
Chris Harris-Marsh Technical Director at BluefinLEDFully compatible with Bluefin LED’s new Pro-Link P4, P6 and P26 Colour Change Series, the Mini IYS also works with any third-party DMX512 controllable light. The first release supports Raymarine Axiom MFDs running the latest Lighthouse OS.
The LightHouse operating of Axiom chartplotters offers seamless integration across a wide range of marine devices, and we are delighted to add BluefinLED’s lighting solutions to our catalog of Axiom compatible apps. Axiom and BluefinLED owners can now experience how easy and intuitive smart lighting control can be.
Darren Boden Global Product Manager at RaymarineUnlike many systems that require additional apps or complex configurations, the Mini IYS utilises a secure, web-based HTML5 interface. Any device with a web browser can operate the lights, with no need for downloads or proprietary software. The result is a future-proof platform that can grow with the vessel, adding new lights, integrating above-water fixtures, or expanding to wider onboard controls as owners need.
Developed and manufactured in-house by BluefinLED, the Mini IYS reflects the company’s commitment to robust engineering, supply chain security and practical, real-world innovation. An OEM or dealer can handle the installation, but the straightforward design means capable DIY owners can also fit it.
With additional integrations on the horizon, the Mini IYS marks the beginning of a new era in lighting control, one where boat owners can expect simpler installs, smarter interfaces, and greater compatibility. By leading with Raymarine, BluefinLED is setting a strong precedent for how marine electronics brands can collaborate to deliver innovation that truly enhances life on the water.
