New Integrator Centered Service Received Honors from CE Pro and Residential Systems
PHOENIX — Sept. 20, 2024 — Blackwire Designs, a leading distributor in the custom installation and Pro AV markets, announced that its Network Provisioning Service (NPS) has received the CE Pro BEST Award for BEST Tools, Testing and Calibration and a Best of Show Award from Residential Systems during the CEDIA Expo 2024 in Denver. The NPS enables integrators to receive fully configured, updated, labeled, and installation-ready networking equipment straight out of the box from Blackwire. Available for free upon purchase of eligible networking products, this service eliminates the need for time-consuming setup and troubleshooting on site, ensuring a seamless and cost-efficient installation process.
“We are honored to have received these two awards for a service that speaks to our dedication to integrators,” said Kevin Luther, owner of Blackwire Designs. “Having worked as integrators ourselves, the Blackwire team knows the struggles firsthand and creates tools and support designed to help tackle the challenges home technology professionals face on the job. With the NPS, integrators can deploy networking solutions with confidence and speed — saving time and money, all while ensuring a headache-free end-user experience.”
To use the Blackwire Network Provisioning Service, integrators must complete a short post-purchase questionnaire to have their equipment customized to their project specifications. Blackwire will then configure and update all networking equipment before shipping the products from the warehouse, ensuring that the customer’s specifications align with the company’s recommended configuration. This process verifies that each piece of equipment is working and plug-and-play ready upon arrival, eliminating the hassle of the RMA process, ensuring a smooth installation, and saving countless hours in the field. As a result, integrators can reduce labor costs and minimize the need for highly experienced staff on site. The service is supported by CWNA-certified personnel and includes all Ruckus, Peplink, and NETGEAR certifications, guaranteeing top-notch quality and reliability.
The CE Pro BEST Awards were judged on innovation, functionality, competitive advantages and benefits to the installer by industry leaders, along with the editors of CE Pro. For the Residential Systems Best of Show Awards, a team of judges was employed to read through the entries and rate them on several criteria, including value, impact, and uniqueness to the market, from the view of the residential integrator.
