New products include additions to the REVConnect Connectivity System, tool-less fiber raceways, wall-mount cabinets, additions to cable lines and superior cable packaging options
Belden Inc., a global leader in signal transmission solutions for mission-critical applications, is excited to announce new product solutions that are geared toward helping installers save time and money while end-users make the most of their enterprise network investments.
REVConnect FlexPlugs allow for quick connection of any IoT device using an RJ45 plug, supporting connection in applications where the size of a typical field-terminated plug inhibits direct connection (MPTL) to IoT devices due to size and cable-routing constraints.
The 10GX REVConnect Wall-Mount System is a very high-density, Category 6A cross-connect system. Based on the REVConnect Coupler which allows for the use of cost-effective, cut-to-length cross-connects made of 10GXS Cable and REVConnect Cores, this system provides lower installation and maintenance costs as well as a very clean cross-connect field.
Fiber Raceways safeguard infrastructure investments with a tool-less, flexible system that snaps together quickly and easily for fast installation. An included design tool suite allows for quick configuration of networks, ensuring that no needed component gets overlooked.
XHW Wall-Mount Cabinets support IT/network hosting where space optimization is critical and floor mounting is not an option. Cabinets install quickly and easily to the wall, allow for left- or right-swing mounting. They also optimize equipment and cable management access and support up to 300 pounds of load capacity.
An expanded line of 4K UHD Coax Cables, including Mini RG-59, RG-11 and Flexible RG-6, maximize 4K signal transmission distance on a single coax for 12G-SDI. They reduce weight and space requirements by 30% to 80%, depending on the application.
ReelTuff™ packaging protects Category cables and 4K UHD Media Cables with ruggedized, lightweight, “reel-in-a-box” packaging that provides superior resistance to crushing, puncturing, tearing and water. ReelTuff boxes allow multiple cables to be pulled vertically through stacked boxes and feature simple-to-read labels, descending length markings and easy-to-access, reinforced handles.
In addition, Belden is introducing Bulk Length Audio Cable to support large projects requiring custom length cable runs. Currently available are plenum, riser, waterblock and riser/waterblock cables. These audio cables can be used for permanent installation and are ultra-flexible for deployable applications.

The AeroLift 35, AeroLift 100, and AeroLift 150 are capable of lifting projectors up to 35, 100, and 150 pounds, respectively. The AeroLift is perfect for recessing projectors in small spaces. The AeroLift 35 is the smallest lift on the market, collapsing to 4 inches when closed (minus the projector and closure).
All three models are US UL Listed to UL 2442 and Canada UL Listed to CSA C22.2 No. 60065-03. UL operated the test unit for 25,000 cycles. That means you could raise and lower an AeroLift twice a day, seven days a week, for more than 17 years, and it would still be going strong.

LILIN Americas, an entity of video surveillance provider Merit LILIN serving North, Central and South America, today announced that it has added an Amazon® Alexa® skill to its Device Hub™ device manager that enables customers to simply ask for a live or recorded view from any supported LILIN IP camera or NVR and have it displayed on their TV monitor.
The Amazon Alexa converts the end user’s command to a directive and sends that directive through the Device Hub. This fast, hands-free solution eliminates the need to navigate on screen menus or have a mobile device in hand whenever video is needed for monitoring.
“Using the voice-controlled Alexa features of the LILINHub skill provide a convenient way for end-users to easily monitor their property, such as viewing live camera feeds, playing back video footage from a LILIN NVR and reviewing motion events,” said Joe Cook, General Manager of LILIN Americas. “All the end user needs to do is tell Alexa the command to view the front door camera and the live view will display. This integration is another example of LILIN enhancing the end user experience.”
In addition, Device Hub provides a security professional the ability to remotely monitor multiple sites in one centralized dashboard via the LILIN Device Cloud with the up-to-date status of connected LILIN devices. The LILINHub App has a site mapping feature that plots multiple site locations within Google Maps.
The Alexa skill is immediately available on the new LILIN Device Hub. For additional information, call 626-739-1850, email info@meritlilin.us or visit http://www.meritlilin.com/en/solution/LSolution_DeviceHub

Expanding on Monitor Audio’s comprehensive and versatile architectural speaker range with two flagship ‘Controlled Performance’ models, the luxury
Behind their ‘stealthy’ trimless grilles the CP IWX models follow a no-compromise engineering philosophy for true audiophile music and home theater sound reproduction. These luxury CP in-wall speakers offer high efficiency and power handling for class-leading sound pressure levels, combined with the dynamic wide-band response, deep bass extension and low distortion usually expected of specialized floor-standing speakers. The CP-IW260X and 460X feature Monitor Audio’s signature C-CAM cone material (with the 460X using RST ‘dimpled’ cone technology, which uses concentric dimples to further strengthen their radiating surfaces) deployed in dual 6.5” bass drivers and twin 4” midrange drivers astride a tweeter in a symmetrical ‘B-M-T-M-B’ configuration.
For the first time in a Monitor Audio in-wall speaker, the range-topping CP-IW460X employs a version of the high frequency ribbon transducer from the company’s acclaimed Gold and flagship Platinum speaker lines. The ribbon can be rotated to accommodate horizontal and vertical installation, and being ultra-light and with no break-up, the ribbon displays extraordinary detail retrieval across a wide and linear response, which extends beyond 50 KHz to reproduce perhaps the most neutral and natural high frequency performance available from any in-wall speaker design. The CP-IW260X uses the latest generation 1” Gold Dome tweeter, which employs a specially vented housing to reduce air pressure behind the dome for lower resonance, optimum damping and greater accuracy over a wider range.
Studio Monitor /On-Wall Speakers
Our Black S Series Studio Monitor/On-wall speakers are all about performance and are the perfect addition to high-end, dedicated home theaters. This beautifully crafted series includes three 2-way speakers (S81, S82 & S84) and one 3-way speaker (S85), all four of which are tailored for audiophiles who appreciate the subtle but significant differences between high-end and ultra-high-end speakers.
All speakers in the Black S series have a sonically neutral cabinet design for a stable, resonance-free platform for the custom drivers. The cabinet virtually “disappears” when the music or movie begins so all you hear is a precise soundstage, deep and controlled bass, crisp and natural mid and high frequencies.

Trinnov is now accepting orders for the Altitude48 AV Preamplifier
With the ability to render up to 48 unique channels of information and a total of 64 processed channels, the Altitude48 has capabilities far beyond any other audio-video surround preamplifiers in the world today. Which begs the question: what would one do with all those channels?
How about:
- Employing all 34 main channels specified by Dolby Atmos for the home?
- Having another 14 channels remaining for DTS:X- specific and Auro-3D- speaker locations?
- Having lots of uniquely-derived subwoofer outputs for sophisticated bass management?
- Having a total of 64 outputs available for active, multi-amped loudspeakers?
Since 2015, Trinnov Audio has been the only company that could deliver High Spatial Resolution™ (starting at 16 and going now to 48 unique channels). For that reason, we have more experience with high channel-count theaters than anyone else.
Fortunately, we have decided to share that experience and everything we learned along the way.
Written by CEO Arnaud Laborie, Trinnov has created an 80+ page reference book summarizing our Best Practices for designing multi-format, multi-listener home theaters. It is available only to our dealers since it creates a powerful competitive advantage in designing and selling state-of-the-art theaters. We also work closely with our dealers on these designs to ensure optimal results.
However, you can get a brief overview of the ideas covered in this book in the short article Jon Herron wrote for Residential Systems.
If you find our ideas interesting, please call either Chuck Back (+1.310.572.1070) or Jon Herron (+1.860.833.4400) for more information about becoming a Trinnov dealer.
