About Aether RF
Wireless access control, built in Phoenix
Aether RF is a U.S. engineering company in Phoenix, Arizona. It builds radio devices that carry access control signals to doors and gates a wire can't reach, and sells them direct and through security distribution.
Aether RF came out of low-voltage work
The people who started Aether RF spent years designing and programming low-voltage systems in Phoenix.
The job the products come from
An access panel in an electrical room, a gate five hundred feet out across finished ground, a customer who wants it working this week, and a trenching quote that comes in too late and costs too much.
The Wiegand Wave came first
Aether RF's first product was the Wiegand Wave, a Wiegand-only wireless bridge that carries a reader signal across a gap that would otherwise take a day with a trencher. The KNECT series took the same idea to a system covering several doors and gates on one property, and added OSDP.
Assembled in Phoenix
Every Aether RF unit is assembled in Phoenix, and every one carries a two-year limited warranty.
