CONTROL4 ANNOUNCES INFINITYEDGE IN-WALL TOUCH SCREENS

Next generation product line features sleek design and new intercom functionality at cutting-edge prices

By Gary Reber


Control4, a leader in affordable IP-based control and entertainment systems, today announced a new generation of dedicated in-wall touch screens. Control4® InfinityEdge™ Touch Screens come in 5-inch and 7-inch sizes and feature edge-to-edge capacitive glass and a low profile design at incredibly affordable prices of $599 and $899 (MSRP) respectively. InfinityEdge™ Touch Screens also feature intercom capability, which can be enabled through the purchase of a $499 (MSRP) license.
 
"We’re bringing the elegant InfinityEdge™ line of in-wall touch screens to market at prices that are unheard of in the custom residential industry," stated Control4’s CEO Will West, "This introduction supports our vision to provide affordable home control solutions that will allow home owners to access their Control4® system from virtually every room in the house."
 
Control4 InfinityEdge™ Touch Screens offer intuitive, fingertip control of lights, music, climate, entertainment and security systems. These touch screens feature edge-to-edge capacitive glass and the full functionality of Control4® OS 2.0, including a new flash-based user interface and
the ability to access and extend Control4® system capabilities with apps from the 4Store™ Application Marketplace. Full-featured intercom capability is optional and allows customers to monitor rooms, communicate between rooms, or to broadcast messages to multiple InfinityEdge touch screens in the home.
 
With a choice of AC power or Power Over Ethernet, wired or Wi-Fi connectivity options, and four programmable b uttons for customized commands, the flexible InfinityEdge Touch Screens are perfect for every room in the house without complex rewiring and additional construction costs. InfinityEdge touch screens were designed with Control4 dealers in mind: electricians can pre-wire the back-boxes in new construction and dealers can install the touch screens with one connection at project finish. Both the 5-inch and 7-inch models share the same back-box, which allows the flexibility to change to a different model, even at final install.
 
The Control4® InfinityEdge™ 5" In-Wall Touch Screen will have an MSRP of $599 and the 7" model will have an MSRP of $899. A perpetual site license that enables intercom capability can be purchased for $499 MSRP. These products are
available for order by authorized Control4 dealers.
