We are honored to announce that the Island Pro Mini with Smart SwapTM was selected as the 2026 winner of the NSCA/Commercial Integrator Excellence in Product Innovation (EPI) Award for Best Installation Tool for Integrators. The award was presented yesterday, November 11, 2026, live on stage during the XBO Experience conference in Tempe, Arizona.
Smart Swap enables an installer to replace an existing router with any Island router/firewall while keeping the same IP addresses for the router and all devices on the network, saving time and hassle for the installer.
The NSCA, National Systems Contractors Association, is the leading advocate for the commercial electronic systems and integration industry, with approximately 800 integrator members. They partnered with Commercial Integrator, a well-known media platform for professional AV and IT integrators, to evaluate and select EPI award winners.
