Newark Airport’s Terminal A — the Centerpiece of an Airport-wide Renaissance
The brand-new, state-of-the-art Terminal A is now open. The one million square foot facility with 33 gates represents the largest single investment in New Jersey in the Port Authority’s history. The terminal boasts 21st-century technology, inspiring public art, world-renowned retailers, and locally inspired concessions. Complementing the public art program is an immersive digital journey that captivates passengers with the Garden State's renowned landmarks, art, and innovations through a series of permanent large-scale multimedia installations designed to prioritize the New Jersey sense of place that is distinct to the aesthetic and design of Terminal A.
Replete with all the bells and whistles, Terminal A at the New Jersey transit hub received the World’s Best New Airport Terminal Award by Skytrax, the preeminent industry ratings firm. Completed in 2023, Newark’s Terminal A now joins LaGuardia’s Terminal B as the only two airport terminals in North America awarded the highest Skytrax rating. The terminal served 15 million passengers in its first year, greatly outperforming yearly passenger totals from the previous Terminal A, and part of what makes Terminal A stand out is the crystal clear audio served from AtlasIED’s GLOBALCOM communications platform.
When the Port Authority began planning the renovations for Terminal A, they turned to long-term integration partners MKJ Communications to help design the complex paging system that would serve the massive complex. MKJ had previous experience outfitting airport terminals as part of LaGuardia Terminal B’s AV overhaul and was well-suited to tackle a project of Terminal A’s scale.
“Airports generally have very high noise floors,” said Ylli Dika, Project Manager for MKJ Communications. “From travelers to vehicles to machinery, it adds up to significant audio fatigue in a short amount of time. We knew we needed a system that would provide the necessary audibility and intelligibility for sharing critical travel announcements, which is why we recommended GLOBALCOM.”

Monitor Audio redefines Custom Installation with a range of in-ceiling and in-wall models that feature advanced acoustic technologies and smart installer features segmented into a simple, innovative tiered approach to range classification that offers high-performance sound for customers and flexible system creation for installers.
The Creator Series is a very special and exciting range as it effectively replaces most of Monitor Audio’s previous custom ranges with a single, 19 model range. Monitor Audio is one of the first companies in a very long time to revise their custom product range to this degree.
The Creator Series features 19 models (14 in-ceiling and 5 in-wall) arranged in three clearly defined tiers, each of which offers enhanced performance levels and additional functionality over the preceding tier. Streamlined and enhanced technologies, naming, applications and solutions, make the whole process of product selection much more straightforward for the integrator.
A standout innovation within the series is the use of the patented ‘Quik-Link’ terminal. Revolutionizing the speed of installation, Quik-Link allows the installer to remove the terminal block from the physical speaker and pre-terminate the speaker cables to it. Once the speaker is ready to be fitted within its cut-out, the Quik-Link can be offered up to the connection point on the speaker and magnetically snaps and locks into place.
Other features include new driver technology, Tri-Grip II technology (an evolution of the dog-leg mechanism), increased driver sizes (while the cut-out size remains the same as previous models), 4 controlled performance models with built-in back boxes, and a new enhanced T2X model that combines the previous generation’s ‘T2’ and ‘FX’ models to bring all the qualities of each into one highly versatile speaker that can be used in ‘cinema mono FX’, ‘mono wide dispersion’ and ‘single stereo’ modes.

RoseWater Energy Offers AIA CEU Course on Proper Power Management
Power management is becoming an increasingly critical category for systems integrators aiming to enhance the efficiency, convenience, and comfort of their customers’ luxury homes. Yet, it remains widely misunderstood. RoseWater Energy is addressing this knowledge gap by offering Continuing Education Unit (CEU) courses through the American Institute of Architects (AIA), empowering integrators, architects, builders, designers, and other professionals with a comprehensive understanding of this essential technology.
Systems integrators can earn 1 LU (Learning Unit) HSW (Health, Safety, and Welfare) credit by attending RoseWater Energy’s session on power management solutions for luxury homes. Available both online and in-person, the 1-hour program, titled “Providing Protection Via Power Management for Luxury Homes,” addresses the root causes of increasingly unstable and unreliable electrical power, the negative impact these issues have on the performance and longevity of home technologies, and the available solutions—along with the pros and cons of each. Participants will gain insights into how proper power management contributes to a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable home environment by enabling systems like lighting, climate control, and security to function at their best. When these technologies operate optimally, the overall experience for homeowners is greatly enhanced.
A power management solution, much like a high-bandwidth wiring infrastructure, creates a solid foundation for advanced technologies to thrive. This LU credit equips integrators with the knowledge and confidence to collaborate effectively with other trades, helping to identify customer needs and design and execute a suitable power plan.

WALL-SMART was presented a Best Product award at CEDIA Expo 2024 by CE Pro for its Invisible Mount for iPad Pro 11 and 13 M4 with Ethernet Adapter. This new mount enables Apple’s newest 11- and 13-inch iPads to be recessed flush with the wall surface, providing convenient operation and improved aesthetics. In addition to an optional Ethernet adapter for network connectivity, WALL-SMART includes a built-in USB adapter for convenient charging. As a winner in the Mount, Lift, Media Concealment category, this mount designed for Apple’s latest iPad will be featured in the November/December issue of CE Pro.
Named a Best of Show award-winner by Residential Systems is WALL-SMART’s line of flush wall mounts for Ring security devices. Housed inside these custom-designed and -engineered wall cavities, a Ring alarm base, keypad and sensor, blend seamlessly with the wall surface, rendering the security system less conspicuous yet fully functional. By enabling the fundamental components of a security system to be recessed in convenient wall locations, WALL-SMART offers integrators and homeowners priceless peace of mind while preserving the aesthetic integrity of the home interior. “The judges had their work cut out for them with this year’s inventive nominees,” says Anthony Savona, managing director, content, for Future B2B’s AV Technology Group. “I am eager to see how custom installers use this tech in their upcoming projects!”
Receiving a Performance Home award from Technology Designer is WALL-SMART’s Uni-INwall Universal Flush Mount, a solution similar in concept to WALL-SMART’s multi-award-winning Universal Access Point ceiling mount but intended for installation in walls. No matter which brand of Wi-Fi device, switch, sensor, or other tech component a systems integrator selects for a project, the Uni-INwall mount achieves a seamless fit and finish with the surrounding surface.
