Pakedge Offers Gigabit AC Wireless, the First and Most Comprehensive in the AV Industry - The high-powered and versatile WX-1 access point was released on Sept 28th
Hayward, CA | Pakedge’s new gigabit wireless access point (AP) has set a new standard for the AV networking industry. The new WX-1 is an 802.11ac access point that features a 3×3 Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) radio configuration for up to five times faster connection speed and four times more bandwidth. Supporting twice as many clients, the WX-1 offers a higher channel capacity than N based APs. With channels up to 80Mhz wide the WX-1 is capable of processing up to four times as many signals per channel.
Uniquely designed to guarantee powerful wireless installations in a variety of high-performance applications, the WX-1 is ideal for integrators keen to diversify their business. The WX-1 was purpose designed for bigger, more challenging residential jobs where wireless reliability is a priority, but it is also commercial ready. Plenum rated for fire safety compliance, the WX-1 can also be used in hospitals, schools, and MDUs. It also supports RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) servers, which centralize authentication, authorization, and account management for enhanced security. The WX also supports the more secure WPA Enterprise and WPA2 Enterprise signal encryption for those who use RADIUS servers.
Robust and reliable wireless performance is assured with the WX-1. Designed for bandwidth intensive multimedia traffic, the WX-1 boasts intelligent features such as TruStreamTM and Pakedge ZonesTM which are able to recognize and prioritize latency sensitive voice and video traffic for seamless performance. The WX-1 also maintains high throughputs at long ranges – distances where others drop off quickly. This stable and effective throughput performance is attained through a combination of factors including six internal antennas based on a Pakedge proprietary design, high transmit power radios, as well as SectorMaxxTM and FluxxTM technologies.
The WX-1 also offers versatile mounting options and form factors to simplify spec’ing and installation. The adaptability of the wall/ceiling surface mount and the in-ceiling/in-wall mounting trays conveniently allows integrators to stock only one SKU that can be upgraded as needed. The WX-1 also includes t-bar brackets for drop-tile ceilings and there is even an outdoor version. Because the WX-1 is PoE+ powered, the placement of the AP is flexible and not contingent on whether or not an AC power outlet is available.
The WX-1 also incorporates a variety of additional security features to ensure safe wireless networking. These include special encryption algorithms and secure encryption. It also enables the provision for two guest networks (one for the 2.4 GHz band, and one for the 5 GHz band). The guest network setup and management can be performed through the WX-1’s management menus, as well as through the Pakedge C36 wireless controller which both enable automatic detection and blocking of unauthorized devices. When used with RADIUS servers for commercial application the enterprise WPA/WPA2 features enhance security.
Preview the GUI and see how easy it is to set up!
The GUI and feature menus on the WX-1 are simple and intuitive which are indicative of Pakedge’s dedication to ease of use. Like other Pakedge products, the WX-1 is easy to set-up and easy to use. Pakedge Zones make integrating Pakedge devices and optimizing traffic simple with pre-set AV specific configurations.The WX-1 series is also eligible for Pakedge’s Custom Engineering program that allows resellers and installers to create and lock in their own, customized “tried and true” configurations for plug-and-play installation. The custom engineering program saves dealers time and money by reducing installation errors and speeding up deployments.
Pakedge will be debuting the WX-1 and the rest of its AV specific network innovations at CEDIA in October. They will be raffling off 802.11ac access points and giving away power banks to visitors who stop by their booth to check out their demo stations. Pakedge will be at CEDIA booth #6414.
Blazing Fast 802.11ac Wireless Now Available From Pakedge
Visit us at InfoComm – booth 3685
Hayward, CA | Pakedge Device & Software, Inc., a leading manufacturer and designer of custom A/V network solutions, announced today that their new, highly anticipated wireless-AC access point is now available.
The WK-1 is an enterprise-grade 802.11ac wireless access point that provides high-range wireless at blazing fast speeds. Designed with 2×2 radio, the WK-1 boasts three times more speed and throughput than wireless-N access points. It is capable of supporting twice as many clients as wireless-N and a greater usable range.
The new Pakedge WAP has an industrial design that is sleek and robust. Its clean and lustrous, high-quality polycarbonate housing and internal antennae design creates a look that blends perfectly into any installation. Available in white, making it ideal for most indoor installations, the new wireless-AC access point can be painted to blend in to almost any architectural environment. It will also be available in black which might be used in auditoriums, theaters, or other dim lit conditions.
Powered by PoE+ and with a high signal-to-noise ratio, it delivers a clear signal from anywhere – making it ideal in hard to reach places. Included brackets allow the WK-1 to quickly and easily be mounted to standard or drop-tile style ceilings and walls. Because it is PoE powered the WK-1 does not need to be plugged into a power outlet, allowing integrators more freedom in deciding where the WAP could be placed.
The new, improved GUI makes set up easy. Redesigned for a more unified look to facilitate a more consist experience across the Pakedge platform, the new WK-1 user interface is intuitive and incredibly simple. Integrators can access the GUI, set up preferences, and upload firmware in a matter of minutes.
The WK-1 is the most recent Pakedge product to be enabled for the San Francisco Bay Area manufacturer’s Custom Engineering program, which burns integrator’s preferred configurations into the firmware. This means an integrator can still make configuration tweaks on a customized wireless, but can revert back to their preferred customization by hitting the factory default button. This essentially condenses your best system integrator’s knowledge and experience and programs in directly into the devices.
In addition, these customized units are co-branded with Pakedge—the integrator’s logo will be visible from the device interface and on the serial number label. The Pakedge Custom Engineering is intended to help dealers scale their business a little more, extending their market reach to new customers more efficiently and effectively while still gaining a profit.
The 802.11ac WAP is Pakedge Connect+ certified, so that it leverages other Pakedge devices on the network to optimize functionality in order to deliver seamless, scalable and reliable multimedia networking performance. For example, when paired with the C-36 wireless controller Pakedge’s Smart Wav™ technology uses proprietary intelligent software algorithms to enhance wireless transmission and reception by reading the wireless environment and adapting accordingly.
When unified with the BakPak Cloud Management System, the functionality of the Pakedge Connect+ Platform is extended with cloud-enabled services such as the monitoring and management of all connected devices anywhere, anytime, and from any device. Integrators are able to manage and maintain network devices without having to roll a truck.
You can learn more about the new WK-1 at www.pakedge.com/wk1. There is also a quick guide video for the WK-1 GUI on Pakedge’s YouTube site.
Pakedge Adds Two New Models to SE-Series Network Switches
Hayward, CA | Pakedge Device & Software, Inc., an industry leading manufacturer of high performance end-to-end networking platforms for residential and commercial A/V applications, has announced that their new SE-8P and SE-8P4 switches are now available.
The SE-8P is an 8 Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch with a power budget to allow 8 ports of PoE or up to 4 ports of PoE+. The 8 port gigabit SE-8P4’s power budget allows up to 4 ports of PoE or 2 ports of PoE+ power – ideal for powering Wireless Access Points, touch panels, or IP Security cameras.
These switches will be replacing the S8Pe and S8P4e switches which have reached end of life. The new SE switches are as well-made as ever, but the new housing has been upgraded for a more unified and polished look. Perhaps the best news of all is that the new SE- Series switches have dropped significantly in price.
The new Pakedge SE-Switch series are no-nonsense devices. The plug-and-play SE-Switches are ideal for simple networks that don’t require advanced bandwidth management. Like all Pakedge Unmanaged Switches, the SE-Series auto-discovers connected devices and integrates them into the network in seconds. They also auto detect network speeds and communication modes – simplifying configuration for a hassle-free setup.
The SE-Series can be added to larger managed networks for added versatility and extra port space. These unmanaged switches are perfect for the expansion of networks which have a managed switch further upstream. When connected to a network that has a managed switch, the new unmanaged SE switches are ideal for quickly connecting multiple access points, media devices, or other clients on the same VLAN…

SNEAK PEAK: Pakedge previews BakPak 3.0 at Integrate Systems Europe 2015
Hayward, CA | Amsterdam, NL – As if BakPak wasn’t already a time and stress saver, Pakedge announced at ISE 2015 that they have been working on BakPak 3.0 and will be ready to launch in Q2 2015. In addition to automated device discovery, remote monitoring and repair, configurable alerts, and the multiple network views already enabled by the cloud management system, BakPak 3.0 will feature self-healing, auto-mapping, auto-firmware updates, auto-configuration back up and restore, and Triplex.
Triplex is a built-in troubleshooting algorithm that works in conjunction with the self-healing function to automate trouble shooting. In case of network outage TriPlex goes through a set of automated troubleshooting procedures to attempt to bring the network back up. As it goes through these procedures it creates a log which is sent to users as part of a weekly report. The log is also useful to the integrator, because should Triplex be unable to restart the system and it becomes necessary to make an on-site visit, the integrator will have a list of procedures that were already attempted.
The upgrades being made to BakPak are vast and deep, but in the coming months …
