Chicago, IL (September 1, 2005)–Tripp Lite, a world-leading manufacturer of power protection equipment, is proud to announce that its full line of A/V Series UPS Systems will be certified for Control4’s Integrated Partner Program. Home theater resellers and installers can now seamlessly integrate Tripp Lite’s on-line, pure sine wave and Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) UPS systems into their customers’ Control4 IP-based home-control installations.
“Clean, reliable electricity is the foundation of every home automation system,” stated James Gist, Control4 Director of Business Development. “The demand to protect, monitor and control components, even during a catastrophic power failure, is ever-increasing and essential to ensure customer satisfaction.”
Control4’s Integrated Partner Program promotes interoperability of leading manufacturers’ equipment with Control4 home automation products. This new Tripp Lite/Control4 partnership will ensure that Tripp Lite A/V Series UPS Systems will be compatible with Control4 IP-based home-control solutions. As part of this program, Control4 will develop plug-n-play drivers that are compatible with all Tripp Lite A/V UPS Systems.
