Why Rako WCM-D

Wired back-box interface that lets custom and third-party switch plates work in place of a Rako wired keypad

On the wall

Replaces a bank of switches. One plate recalls evening, cooking, goodnight — the scene is stored in the system.

Wired

Sits on the CAT5 Rakom network with the modules for that floor.

App as well

With an RK-HUB or WK-HUB, the same scenes also run from the Rako app and from voice assistants.

What the Rako WCM-D is

The Rako WCM-D is a compact wired interface for conventional push buttons or switches. It is the wired counterpart of the battery-powered RCI-7M used in wireless systems.

Where it sits in a Rako system

It sits in the back box on the Rako wired network, cabled back to a RAK-LINK or RAK-STAR. It is programmed in RASOFT Pro through a WK-HUB. See all Rako wired interfaces.
