The innovator of beautifully designed iPad Mounts, iPad Chargers, iPad Enclosures, iPad Programmable Buttons and IoT Products.

Surface Mount

Elegantly integrate iPad onto any surface.

iPad is everywhere, in business and homes. There are thousands of smart devices now that help make your life better like smart door locks, smart lighting and even digital music systems. All these devices come to life on your iPad screen where you can control them as you desire. We believe there should be an easy way to place your iPad on a wall, making it always charged and always available. Turn your iPad into a smart touch controller with Surface Mount: the elegant frame that allows you to integrate iPad onto any surface. Learn more by watching the video below.

Any Surface, Anywhere, Any Way.

Install iPad in a snap.

Installing iPad into the Surface Mount bezel is a ‘snap’, literally. Just place iPad into the bezel and snap in the tabs, that’s it. While installed, you can still control the iPad power button by using the power button extension port on the side of the bezel. You can even utilize iPad’s speaker and microphone while installed in the bezel.

Use any wall box worldwide; install in any orientation.

The Surface Mount system gives you true flexibility when installing iPad on a wall. The mounting bracket can be positioned in any orientation on top of any wall box. This is helpful if trying to align the Surface Mount with other objects above or below on the wall, or if trying to cover a hole from an older device. And our specialized screws are 1 part anchor, 1 part screw, minimizing the amount of work required to affix the mounting bracket onto the wall. We thought hard to make it easy… so you don’t have to.

A tiny device with a lot of possibilities.

Meet the iPort PoE Splitter, a tiny device that can fit into any wall box, worldwide. Connect Cat-5 or Cat-6 cable to the Splitter to receive power from a PoE (803.2af) power source like a PoE Network Switch, or connect low voltage wire to our 2-pin port from any 24V DC power source. Connect your iPad lightning cable to the USB port to provide up to 12W of power to iPad. You can even use the Splitter as a cable manager to wrap up excess iPad cable, making it easier to place the Splitter in a wall box. It’s like origami, for your wires.

Hang iPad on the wall with the power of magnets.

Once you’ve placed iPad in the bezel, and wired your Splitter, the only thing left to do is snap your iPad-in-bezel onto the mounting bracket. This is done with the power of magnets. Simply place the Bezel above the mounting bracket and it snaps right into place. You can even utilize our security locks to make sure your iPad says put in busy places like offices or restaurants.

Meet the world’s most versatile iPad mount.

Precision-Machined Bezel, High Grade Finishes

Surface Mount’s Aluminum bezel is made of high-grade alloy and finished to the highest standards. Choose from 3 finishes: Black, White or Silver. The result is bezel as refined as the iPad itself.

Flexible Power Options via PoE or Low Voltage

Surface Mount’s electronics system can receive power from a PoE Switch or 24V DC power supply. And for instances in which power from a wall receptacle is required, just use the Power Injector.

Install on Any Surface, Use Any Wall Box

Surface Mount was designed from the bottom up to be the easiest iPad mount to install, ever. Use any Wall box, whether EU, UK or US, single gang or double gang. Simply hang Surface Mount over the box, in any orientation.

More than just an iPad frame.

guide

Surface Mount’s precision machined aluminum bezel doesn’t just look great: inside is a beautiful arrangement of ports, clips and locks that enable nearly every iPad hardware function. All this capability is engineered in a minimalist, high quality frame and hidden from sight.

The freedom to power iPad in many different ways.

switch
Surface Mount electronics are designed to power iPad in nearly any scenario, whether running power over long distances or even utilizing existing wiring from an older device. The Surface Mount PoE Splitter is the smallest of its kind, fitting into even single gang european wall boxes. The Splitter can receive power from a PoE Switch (IEEE 802.3af), or can be powered from nearly any 24V power supply. The PoE Injector can be used to power iPad from a local wall receptacle or can be plugged into an AV rack up to 600 feet away. Whatever the scenario, the Surface Mount system has the tools to get the job done.

Hold. Charge. Protect.

The World’s First and Only Inductive Charger / Magnetic Mount for iPad
LaunchPort is the revolutionary charging and mounting system that forever changes how you can use iPad. The LaunchPort system consists of a Sleeve and any number of Stations. A Sleeve is a protective case that fits onto your iPad. A Station is the mount and charging unit that connects to and holds a Sleeve. There are two types of Stations, one for the table and one for the wall.

LaunchPort powers iPad via inductive charging. As soon as a Sleeve is mounted to a Station charging begins immediately, without wires or cables. Magnets are used to mount an iPad-in-Sleeve to a Station. Because magnets are inside the Sleeve, you can also mount it to any metallic surface.

Use iPad while it charges on a wall, table, or virtually anywhere else without cables and without fuss. Elevate what an iPad can do with LaunchPort.

A Home for iPad

Always Charged

The LaunchPort System provides the most convenient way to charge an iPad without wires and without fuss. Place your iPad onto a Station in any orientation and charging just works, every time.

Home Base

LaunchPort creates a home base for your iPad so you always know where it is. Because your iPad is always at its home base, it’s always charged and ready for use.

Protector

SLaunchPort’s elegant form fitting Sleeve also protects iPad. It’s ready for anything, whether in the house or in a commercial space like hotels, restaurants or offices.

The System

launchportsystem

Sleeve + Station = System

The LaunchPort system consists of a Station and a Sleeve. The protective Sleeve slides onto iPad. There are two types of Stations: a BaseStation which can be placed on a table or counter and a WallStation which can be installed into nearly any surface. The WallStation is powered in-wall, with low-voltage wires routed back to a power source.

Inductive Charging

Inductive charging works by safely transmitting energy through the air. There are no cables or conductive elements used in the system, allowing for mounting between a Sleeve and the Station to occur easily and seamlessly. LaunchPort’s inductive charging technology charges your iPad at the same exact rate as Apple’s Power Adapter.

Magnetic Mounting

The LaunchPort Sleeve contains an array of magnets which are used to mount to a Station. These magnets provide a precise and secure connection while the Sleeve hangs on a wall via the WallStation. The result is a unique system that makes mounting and charging truly effortless and flexible for a variety of commercial and residential applications.

Choose a Station and Sleeve to create your LaunchPort System.

iPad + Buttons: The Best of Both Worlds

iPad has become the favorite device for automation control, and for good reason: iPad Apps provide a feature-rich, customized and intuitive interface for the user. But even an iPad app can sometimes be cumbersome to operate an automation system because of the need to “wake up” the iPad, navigate to the desired control App and find the control.

Hard buttons, on the other hand, provide immediate access to key controls. Hard buttons typically exist on the wall and in most cases are not at your fingertips. Our goal was simple: to create programmable, hard buttons that function independent of iPad. We believe this provides the best of both worlds: immediate access to key controls along with the richness of Apps; any app you want, at any time.

Say hello to LaunchPort with Buttons, the world’s first programmable, independently functioning buttons on an iPad case. With Buttons, LaunchPort becomes a vital necessity in an automation control system.

Immediate Access to the Controls That Matter Most

By utilizing the power of Lutron’s® Industry proven Clear Connect® wireless technology, LaunchPort Sleeve Buttons communicate independently to any Lutron RadioRA® 2, HomeWorks® QS or Caséta™ router, repeater or bridge. Once paired with the Lutron® network device, Sleeve Buttons can control a variety of Lutron® systems. They can even control whole home automation systems like Savant, Crestron, Control 4, RTI and even Do-It-Yourself systems like Roomie and Nest. The power is in your hands.

Buttons + Glass: The Best of Both Worlds

By bringing together Apps and hard buttons, you get the best of both worlds in the palm of your hand: the richness of Apps and the convenience of hard buttons.

Buttons Function Independent of iPad

Sleeve Buttons communicate independent of your iPad, allowing you to use iPad for anything you’d like while still have control of your environment.

Integrate with Many Control Systems

Because of Lutron’s Clear Connect platform, Sleeve Buttons can communicate with a variety of control system and devices including Crestron, Savant, Control 4, RTI, Roomie Remote, and more.

The System

What a LaunchPort with Buttons System Looks Like

The LaunchPort with Buttons system consists of 3 parts: a Station, a Sleeve and Sleeve Buttons. Sleeve Buttons replace the standard top that ships with a Sleeve, adding buttons to the Sleeve. Sleeve Buttons models exist to match LaunchPort Sleeve models and colors.

launchport_button_system

Station + Sleeve + Sleeve Buttons = LaunchPort with Buttons System

LaunchPort Sleeve Buttons attach onto a Sleeve, replacing the standard sleeve-top.

sleeve

Provided Icon-Imprinted Buttons

Control System Components and Compatibility

Sleeve Buttons communicate via Lutron’s Clear Connect one way 434MHz (or 868MHz if in UK / EU) protocol to a variety of Lutron network bridges and repeaters. The Lutron network bridge converts clear connect button-press commands onto an IP network. Using Lutron drivers, Sleeve Buttons can be monitored by the control processor of the control system of your choice. In most cases, the Lutron Caséta Smart Bridge Pro is the only network bridge required to allow Sleeve Buttons to communicate with your control system.

Buttons+Diagram+2

Sleeve Buttons are set up as a “phantom keypad” in the control system, button presses are monitored and programmed to enact macros or commands in the control system. The extent of LaunchPort Sleeve Buttons functionality is dependent on the capabilities of the control system you are using.

Note: Some control systems may not provide functionality outside of lighting and shade control, depending on how the Lutron Driver is written.

Now you can add big sound to your big TV display without filling the room with speakers. Monitor Audio’s Soundbar series will complete your HD picture entertainment with the high definition sound you’ve been missing, and match the look of your TV with contemporary lifestyle design.

The new SB Series of passive soundbars will contribute the essential high definition audio element to screen entertainment from thin TVs of 50″ and above. Complete with a wide range of mounting options for easy and discreet custom installation, the two super-slim SB models are engineered with flagship cabinet and driver technologies to combine efficient low-profile design with extraordinary room-filling dynamics.

Monitor Audio has conceived the ASB-2 as the ultimate audio hub for the home. It can operate as a high quality soundbar beneath a TV monitor from rack or wall positions, but offers so much more than the conventional amalgam of left, centre, right speakers. Apple AirPlay®, DLNA® and UPnP enabled, the ASB-2 will deliver uncompressed music from files stored on PC or Mac, iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch, Android or Windows phone, or streamed from Internet services. In addition to iTunes and DNLA compatible Apps, friends can connect and play directly to the ASB-2 without network access via Airplay Direct.

Connect a plethora of sound sources to the ASB-2 via three HDMI inputs and use the HDMI output for 1080p/3D video pass through and OSD. HDMI 1.4’s Audio Return Channel (ARC) allows for the two way transfer of information between the ASB-2 and a compatible device, creating an additional input from the HDMI output. Digital S/PDIF optical and coaxial inputs add further flexibility, together with stereo analogue RCAs for plugging-in legacy radios and CD players. A single RCA LFE output allows for system expansion with an external sub-woofer – crossover filtering is automatic. Network setup and upgrades are via USB or Wi-Fi.

Select input, track, volume, mute, menu, play and standby from the ASB-2’s compact handset, or access this functionality from home control screens via hex codes for each remote feature, which can be programmed into a whole-house system by your custom installer.

High frequency switches on both on-wall and in-wall models will raise or lower levels by 3dB.

Our ultra-slim and innovative SoundFrame ‘picture’ speakers make it easy to integrate high quality sound with any interior. With easy-to-install on-wall and in-wall options, pivoting drivers for the ideal audio balance, and a wide range of grille colours, images and custom grille designs, the SoundFrame range provides the elusive blend of superior sound and décor that all style-conscious home entertainment lovers seek.

The beauty of SoundFrame is that in preserving the wide dynamic range of the music, living space is similarly respected. At just 3.5″ deep and fitted flush to the wall – or within it – the SoundFrame on-wall and in-wall speakers create the slimmest backline in the world. And we’ve custom designed the SoundFrame systems to play loud and proud. On-wall and in-wall versions of the three models (SF1, SF2 and the even more discreet SF3) incorporate pivoting C-CAM® drivers developed for our range-topping in-ceiling and in-wall speakers. With play in all directions each can be directed toward the listening position for detailed sound and accurate imaging. Naturally punchy and rhythmic mid-bass frequencies are reproduced by a further single bass driver.

The Power of PowerG

Multichannel, Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum technology enables the system to hop between wireless frequency channels to ensure the seamless transmission of secure communications between the devices and the control panel. Adaptive Transmission Power translates into up to eight years of battery life for the system’s devices and peripherals, reducing battery-replacement incurred costs. High transmission ranges allow for devices to reliably communicate within up to 2 km/2187 yards line-of-sight, therefore reducing the cost of installing additional repeaters to service larger premises. TDMA synchronized communication technology prevents messages from colliding by splitting channels into various time slots, allowing for an increased amount of data transmission and ensuring that devices are able to consistently communicate when needed. 128 bit AES encryption offers exceptionally high level of protection against analysis tools and digital attacks.

Other powerful features include protection against lost alarm messages, interference and frequency blocking. These features translate into a number of advantages for both dealers and customers. The system offers potential for extraordinary range to suit scalable commercial demands. Total control from remote allows for easy configuration of devices and peripherals as well as remote diagnostics. Optimized device placement via LED makes any installation quick and simple.

Alarm Verification Solutions

Reliable and effective alarm verification is paramount to any security monitoring service, allowing respondents to clearly identify emergent situations and to take appropriate action more rapidly.

PowerSeries Neo utilizes innovative, regionally compliant alarm verification solutions such as visual verification and two-way audio and sequential detection, greatly reducing incremental high costs that can be incurred by false alarms and unnecessary site-checks while adding to the security professional’s RMR. Leveraging numerous technologies as well as the highly effective Support Software, users can accurately but also remotely assess the situation inside the premises when an alarm is triggered by a burglary attempt, fire or other emergency. The software capabilities also eliminate the need for unnecessary site checks – ultimately saving time and cost while enabling responders to be alerted to any potentially dangerous situations.

Double-Checking, for Absolute Peace of Mind

Visual Verification: PowerSeries Neo offers the most sophisticated visual verification solutions through strategically installed PIR cameras which are activated the moment an alarm is triggered. Based on images sent instantly through to the monitoring facility equipped with a Sur-Gard System 5 Receiver, the situation can rapidly and accurately be assessed and escalated to authorities, if required, while providing respondents with critical information.

Audio Verification: PowerSeries Neo utilizes audio alarm verification through a built-in microphone in peripherals which, once an alarm is triggered, allows security service providers to call into the system and listen in on any sounds within the premises to better assess the situation. Any occupants within the premises can also be contacted via a built-in speakerphone for verbal confirmation of the validity of the alarm.

Sequential Alarm Verification: Based on customizable criteria, the PowerSeries Neo panel is able to intelligently monitor associated devices and intrusion-related events to effectively discern real, from false, alarms. Only once the panel has detected a real intrusion sequence of events, the alarm is confirmed with central stations for immediate notification of authorities.

PowerSeries Neo Control Panels

The heart of a new universe in security solutions.

The modular and scalable structure of PowerSeries Neo provides a cost effective, tailored solution for even the most demanding installations and PowerSeries Neo’s Control Panels constitute the heart of it.
