Hikvision AX PRO Series DS-PDMCK-EG2-WB Wireless Magnet Shock Detector

Model: DS-PDMCK-EG2-WB

Who This Is For

Property managers specifying wireless alarm upgrades for sites where cable runs are impractical will find the Hikvision AX PRO DS-PDMCK-EG2-WB a practical solution. It combines magnetic contact detection with a built-in shock sensor in a single wireless device, covering both door or window opening events and physical impact attempts on the same surface - without requiring 2 separate sensors. Designed exclusively for the Hikvision AX PRO ecosystem, it communicates over two-way 433MHz RF with a 1.2km open-area transmission range, making it viable for larger properties, warehouses, or multi-building sites where long cable runs would otherwise add significant cost. A single CR123A battery powers the unit for up to 5 years under normal use, keeping ongoing maintenance low. It suits security installers, facility managers, and AX PRO system owners adding protection to entry points, roller doors, or glazed panels without disturbing finished walls or ceilings.

What This Detector Actually Does

Who Buys This Model

• Security Installers Expanding AX PRO Systems: Technicians adding perimeter detection to existing Hikvision AX PRO installations without running new cable - particularly on sites with rendered walls, heritage finishes, or concrete construction where wiring is disruptive.
• Warehouse and Industrial Facility Managers: Sites with large roller doors, loading dock entries, or skylights that need both shock and opening detection on the same point - the combined sensor means fewer devices to register, battery-swap, and maintain.
• Commercial Tenants in Leased Premises: Businesses that cannot modify walls or ceilings can deploy this detector without any hardwiring, and take it when they relocate - the wireless design leaves the building fabric intact.
• Property Owners Protecting Remote Buildings: The 1.2km open-area RF range makes this practical for sheds, equipment stores, or outbuildings that sit well away from the main structure where the AX PRO hub is installed.

Honest Assessment

The DS-PDMCK-EG2-WB does two things well: it consolidates magnetic contact and shock sensing into one wireless device, and it does so within the AX PRO ecosystem's two-way RF architecture - meaning status confirmation and remote configuration are included rather than bolted on. The 1.2km open-area range and 5-year battery life are genuine practical advantages for larger or hard-to-wire sites. What it will not do is operate with any non-AX PRO hub or third-party alarm panel - this is a closed-ecosystem device. It also will not replace a dedicated glass break detector where audio-frequency sensing across a wide glazed area is needed; in that scenario a purpose-built acoustic glass break sensor is a better fit. If you are specifying across multiple access points, the range of compatible AX PRO wireless sensors available through Security Australia allows the system to grow without mixing brands or communication protocols.

Before You Buy

Quick Fit Check

• Good match if: You are running a Hikvision AX PRO system and need to protect individual doors, windows, or roller doors with both opening and impact detection from a single wireless device using the existing hub infrastructure.
• Good match if: The installation site has outbuildings, remote entry points, or finished interiors where running alarm cable is impractical - the 1.2km open-area RF range and cable-free design handle both constraints.
• You may need a different model if: Your alarm panel is not Hikvision AX PRO, or you need wide-area acoustic glass break detection across a large glazed facade - a dedicated glass break detector is a more appropriate device type for that application.

Real-World Scenarios

How It Compares

• Choose this if: You need both magnetic contact and shock detection at the same entry point within a Hikvision AX PRO system, and cable installation is not practical or not desirable at that location.
• You may need a different model if: Your existing alarm panel is not Hikvision AX PRO, or you need wired zone sensors for a high-security installation where supervised wired connections are specified - a wired contact detector paired with a wired alarm panel is the more appropriate product type in that case.
• Pairs well with: Other Hikvision AX PRO wireless sensors (PIR detectors, wireless sirens, keyfobs) to build out a complete wireless perimeter and interior detection system on a single hub.

Common Questions

1. Will this detector work with my existing Hikvision NVR or non-AX PRO alarm panel?

   No. The DS-PDMCK-EG2-WB is designed exclusively for the Hikvision AX PRO hub and its 433MHz two-way RF protocol. It will not connect to Hikvision NVR systems, older Hikvision DS-19xx series alarm panels, or any third-party panel regardless of frequency. If you do not have an AX PRO hub, this detector cannot be used on its own.

2. Does this detector actually alert on shock, or does it only detect when a door opens?

   Yes, it detects both independently. The shock sensor responds to vibration and physical impact on the mounting surface and can trigger an alert before a door or window is opened at all. The magnetic contact then provides a secondary trigger if the entry point is subsequently opened. Both events are reported separately to the AX PRO hub so you can distinguish between an impact attempt and an actual opening.

3. What is the realistic wireless range in a building, not just open area?

   The 1.2km figure is an open-area specification under ideal conditions. In practice, walls, concrete floors, steel structures, and other RF sources will reduce this. For most residential and light commercial buildings with standard construction, the range remains sufficient for whole-site coverage from a centrally located hub. Concrete tilt-panel or multi-storey reinforced concrete construction may require range testing during commissioning or the use of a wireless repeater if available in the AX PRO ecosystem.

4. How does the two-way RF differ from a standard one-way wireless sensor?

   Two-way RF means the AX PRO hub sends an acknowledgement back to the detector after each transmission, confirming the signal was received. One-way sensors simply broadcast and have no way to know if the hub received the alert. The two-way architecture also allows the hub to push status queries and configuration updates to the detector remotely, which is how low battery status and device health are reported back without a site visit. This is confirmed as part of the AX PRO platform design.

5. Does this work for monitoring a glass window, or do I need a separate glass break detector?

   It depends on the threat. The DS-PDMCK-EG2-WB detects physical shock to the frame or surface it is mounted on, so it will respond to significant impact on or near the window frame. However, it does not use acoustic sensing to detect the specific frequency signature of breaking glass across a wide glazed area the way a dedicated glass break detector does. For large glazed storefronts or floor-to-ceiling windows, a purpose-built acoustic glass break detector is more appropriate. For standard residential or commercial windows where the sensor is mounted directly on the frame, the shock detection provides meaningful impact coverage. Details on compatible AX PRO accessories are available through Security Australia.

6. How will I know when the CR123A battery needs replacing?

   The detector reports low battery status back to the AX PRO hub automatically via the two-way RF link. This appears as a system event and push notification in the Hik-Connect app, so there is no need to physically check each device. The battery is rated for up to 5 years under normal usage conditions, though actual life will vary based on the number of alarm events and the reporting frequency configured for the zone.
