Product SKU: Hikvision DS-PM1-I1-WB
Product Overview
The Hikvision DS-PM1-I1-WB AX PRO Wireless Input Transmitter is a compact wireless module designed to convert compatible wired alarm inputs into wireless AX PRO alarm zones. It allows installers to connect an existing wired detector, contact or alarm device to a compatible Hikvision AX PRO wireless system, helping preserve existing cabling or devices while expanding wireless alarm coverage. With wireless communication, flexible input use and AX PRO integration, it is well suited to homes, offices, retail stores, garages, sheds, gates and retrofit alarm projects where a wired device needs to communicate wirelessly with the alarm hub.
Key Capabilities
Wired-to-Wireless Conversion
The DS-PM1-I1-WB helps convert a compatible wired alarm input into a wireless AX PRO alarm zone, reducing the need to replace every existing wired device.
AX PRO Wireless Integration
Designed for compatible Hikvision AX PRO systems, the transmitter allows selected wired detectors or contacts to report wirelessly to the alarm hub.
Retrofit Alarm Flexibility
The module is useful for upgrade projects where existing wired sensors are still suitable but the alarm system is being moved to an AX PRO wireless platform.
Compact Input Module
Its compact design makes it easier to place near the existing wired device, cable end or protected opening, depending on the final alarm layout.
Extended Device Reuse
The transmitter can help reuse selected wired alarm devices, such as contacts or detectors, where they are compatible and still appropriate for the installation.
Best For
- Alarm System Retrofits: Suitable for projects where existing wired inputs need to be added to a compatible AX PRO wireless system.
- Door and Window Contacts: Useful where a wired magnetic contact needs wireless reporting to the AX PRO hub.
- Garage and Shed Monitoring: Practical for remote areas where a wired device is already installed but wireless connection to the hub is preferred.
- Retail and Office Upgrades: A good option for reusing compatible existing wired sensors during alarm upgrades.
- Hybrid Wireless Expansion: Best where an AX PRO system needs to incorporate selected wired alarm inputs without running new cables back to the hub.
Why Choose the DS-PM1-I1-WB
The DS-PM1-I1-WB is a practical choice when a Hikvision AX PRO wireless alarm system needs to include a wired detector, wired contact or other compatible input device. Instead of removing every existing wired sensor during an alarm upgrade, the transmitter can help bridge selected wired devices into the wireless system. This can be useful for doors, windows, gates, garages and retrofit projects where existing cabling is already in place. For alarm systems supplied through Security Wholesalers, this input transmitter should be selected after confirming the wired device type, input wiring method, AX PRO hub compatibility, wireless signal strength and required zone behaviour.
Buyer Decision Tips
Buyer Tip: Choose the DS-PM1-I1-WB when you need to connect one compatible wired alarm input to a Hikvision AX PRO wireless alarm system. If several wired zones need to be retained, confirm whether multiple transmitters or an AX Hybrid PRO controller is more suitable.
Installation Tip: Confirm the input type, wiring method, alarm zone behaviour, tamper requirements, hub compatibility, wireless range, battery access and mounting location before installation.

Ideal Use Cases
Wired Contact Conversion
Use the transmitter where an existing wired door or window contact needs to report into a compatible AX PRO wireless system.
Garage or Shed Protection
Suitable for areas where a wired sensor is already fitted but wireless communication back to the AX PRO hub is preferred.
Alarm System Upgrades
Practical for retrofit projects where compatible existing wired detectors are retained during a move to AX PRO wireless alarm control.
Gate or External Input Monitoring
Useful where a wired switch or contact at a gate or access point needs to communicate wirelessly, subject to suitable protection and signal range.
Wireless Zone Expansion
A good option where a compatible AX PRO system needs to add a wired input without installing a full hardwired alarm controller.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this model if: You need to convert one compatible wired alarm input into a wireless AX PRO alarm zone.
- Choose a different device if: You need to retain many wired zones, require a hardwired control panel, need relay output control, require outdoor-rated contact detection, or need a detector rather than an input transmitter.
- Check before ordering: Confirm AX PRO hub compatibility, wired input type, alarm zone behaviour, tamper wiring, wireless range, mounting environment, battery access and whether one transmitter per wired input is required.
FAQs
- What is the Hikvision DS-PM1-I1-WB used for?
The DS-PM1-I1-WB is used to connect a compatible wired alarm input to a Hikvision AX PRO wireless alarm system. It allows a wired contact, detector or input device to report wirelessly to the AX PRO hub.
- Does this convert wired alarm devices to wireless?
Yes. The DS-PM1-I1-WB is designed to convert a compatible wired alarm input into a wireless AX PRO alarm zone. This is useful during retrofit projects where selected wired sensors are retained.
- Can I use this with an existing wired magnetic contact?
Yes, it can be used with compatible wired magnetic contacts where the input type and wiring method are suitable. The installer should confirm normally closed or normally open behaviour, tamper wiring and zone configuration before use.
- Does it replace a full hardwired alarm panel?
No. The DS-PM1-I1-WB is an input transmitter for a compatible wired input, not a full hardwired alarm controller. If the site has many wired zones, an AX Hybrid PRO controller may be more appropriate.
- Is this for AX PRO wireless systems?
Yes. The DS-PM1-I1-WB is intended for compatible Hikvision AX PRO wireless alarm systems. Confirm the hub model, frequency region and firmware support before ordering.
- Where should the transmitter be installed?
Install it near the wired device, contact or cable termination point where the enclosure is protected and the wireless signal to the hub is strong. For systems supplied through Security Wholesalers, the installer should also consider battery access and tamper operation.
- When should I choose this instead of a wireless contact?
Choose this transmitter when an existing wired device is already installed, still suitable and worth retaining. Choose a standard wireless contact when installing a new door or window sensor without existing wiring.
- What should be checked before installation?
Before installation, confirm AX PRO compatibility, input type, wiring method, alarm and tamper behaviour, wireless signal strength, mounting location, battery access, enclosure protection, zone naming and whether each wired input requires its own transmitter.
