Sonance IPORT CONNECT PRO BaseStation Black

Product Overview

The Sonance IPORT CONNECT PRO BaseStation Black is a tabletop iPad charging mount built for AV and IT teams deploying iPad as a room control, scheduling, or check-in surface. It holds and charges iPad at an ergonomic 45-degree angle using a magnetic conductive interface, with portrait or landscape orientation. The BaseStation accepts the full CONNECT PRO modular platform and supports both supplied AC power and an optional PoE+ upgrade. It is intended for use with a compatible CONNECT PRO Case (sold separately).

Product Description

Built on the modular CONNECT PRO platform, the BaseStation Black gives integrators a consistent, repeatable way to hold, charge, protect, and connect iPad across professional rooms. iPad attaches magnetically to the conductive charging interface and recharges at 5V 3A from the supplied power supply, eliminating exposed cables at the meeting table. A supplied security tool locks iPad to the BaseStation as a temporary anti-removal measure, and the integrated foot lets you fasten the unit to a table or solid surface. For deployments that need a hardwired connection and centralized power, the BaseStation upgrades to PoE+ data and power with the optional IPORT CONNECT PoE+ Network Adapter (72101, sold separately) over a single Cat 5 run. The unit ships with international AC socket types A, C, G, and I, making it suitable for global rollouts. This black finish suits darker conference rooms, lecterns, and control surfaces. Pair it with a CONNECT PRO Case sized to your iPad to complete the docking system. Browse the full Sonance commercial audio collection for matching AV infrastructure.
