iPort Control Mounts
In addition to the new Control Mounts, iPort has also started shipping the Control Mount USB Power Upgrade Kit to make existing CM-IW2000s compatible with the iPad 4th generation, available now. All new products utilize iPad’s own connector cable to provide compatibility.
“The CM-IW2000 was the first product on the market to allow the custom installer to use iPad in their projects as an alternative to a dedicated fixed touch screen,” says Sonance, iPort and TRUFIG parent company Dana Innovations chief executive, Ari Supran.
“The secure semi-permanent mounting, attractive industrial design and constant charging capabilities not only overcame the aesthetic and reliability challenges of using an iPad in this type of application, it also allowed the installer to retain margin and profitability with the installation.”

The Control Mount mini goes even further by providing a striking new ‘flat’ aesthetic for iPad at just 0.18” deep and only 0.9” wide, and the thinnest mounting box iPort has ever shipped, making it easier than ever to install in European and older construction. Also shipping with every new Control Mount is VoltPort technology: a radically new way to power low voltage devices in-wall, providing the flexibility to power mobile devices with nearly any power supply ranging from 12-24V, providing charge distances up to 400ft.
And it’s not only in residential applications; the new Control Mounts overcome the charging and security challenges when using an iPad in commercial environments such as boardrooms, hotel lobbies and conference room, education facilities, retail and hospitality.
“When we first designed the CM-IW2000, we were acutely aware of our dealer’s need to provide a migration path for their clients as future generations of iPad were brought to market. The clever adaptation of the CM-IW2000 V2 to be compatible with all full-size iPads to date as well as the USB Upgrade Kit for existing CM-IW2000s is testimony to our team’s vision and engineering excellence,” says iPort product manager Derick Dahl.
“This excellence in engineering can be seen in full force with our Control Mount Mini design: we painstakingly looked at every possible way to reduce the thickness of the bezel and even analysed the way light hits our bezel to design it in a way that actually absorbs a portion of the shadow cast. This is an excellent example of our fervent commitment to delivering the absolute best aesthetic design through great engineering.”
