Why Rako WK-CONNECT

CAT5e or CAT6 cable punches down onto its Krone connector, and the accessory plugs into its RJ11 socket

Interface

A link on the network: keypads, modules and the Hub stay on one system.

With the Hub

App, voice and timers still need an RK-HUB or WK-HUB. This part keeps the system connected.

Keypads still run the room

The plate on the wall is the everyday control. This accessory sits in the background.

What the Rako WK-CONNECT is

The Rako WK-CONNECT is a small connection unit for wired accessories in ceilings. The WP-CON does the same job on a wall plate.

Where it sits in a Rako system

It sits on the Rako wired network and gives an RJ11 socket for an accessory such as the WK-PIR. Its termination jumpers must be set to suit the network. See all Rako wired interfaces.

Rako app

Scenes from the keypad, and from the phone

This product sits in a Rako system. The keypad on the wall runs the room. With an RK-HUB or WK-HUB, the same scenes also run from the free Rako app.

  • Room scenes from the keypad on the wall
  • App control once an RK-HUB or WK-HUB is on the network
  • Voice, timers and holiday mode from the Hub

The Rako app is published by Rako, and needs an RK-HUB or WK-HUB with firmware 3.7.6 or later.
