Extra Info
Advanced Video Intercom
Equipped with a 2 MP fisheye camera, this door station provides a wide field of view for complete entrance coverage, minimizing blind spots. With WDR (Wide Dynamic Range), the camera balances lighting in scenes with both bright and dark areas, while 3D DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) ensures clean, sharp video output. Integrated infrared (IR) illumination enables the device to capture clear images even in low-light or nighttime conditions, making it dependable around the clock.
Secure Audio Communication
For reliable communication between visitors and residents, the device incorporates noise suppression and echo cancellation technologies. These enhancements filter out background noise, reduce interference, and deliver crystal-clear two-way audio, ensuring that conversations remain natural and understandable—even in noisy outdoor environments.
Flexible Expansion
The system is built with scalability in mind, supporting the connection of up to 7 sub-modules. This modular design allows additional features—such as card readers, keypads, or display units—to be added easily. The ability to connect with multiple door stations makes it an excellent solution for apartment complexes, gated communities, or office buildings, where coverage across several entry points is required.
Comprehensive Access Control
More than just an intercom, it also functions as a secure access control terminal. Residents and staff can choose from multiple unlocking options, including RFID card, management software, mobile app via Hik-Connect, or linked indoor stations. This multi-factor flexibility ensures both ease of use and enhanced security, meeting the needs of different installation environments.
