About the Akuvox R20A On-Wall
The Akuvox R20A is a step up from the slim E12 for entrances that need more than one lock or have to keep older access cards. Its front panel is aluminium alloy rather than plastic, the call button has a blue backlight that is easy to find at night, and infrared LEDs let the 2MP camera see a visitor in the dark without a bright light in their face. A motion sensor wakes it as someone approaches.
The reader takes both card families found in Kuwaiti buildings: 125 kHz EM proximity cards and 13.56 MHz Mifare and DESFire (EV1/EV2/EV3) cards, plus NFC from Android phones. Two relays open two things separately, for example the pedestrian door and the car gate, and two inputs take exit buttons or door contacts. RS485 and Wiegand ports connect it to access control controllers. It holds up to 4,000 users and 20,000 cards.
The camera's lens covers 110° horizontally and 58° vertically at up to 1080p and 30 fps, streamed over SIP to Akuvox indoor monitors, SIP phones and the SmartPlus app, and over ONVIF/RTSP to an NVR for recording. A single Cat6 cable with 802.3af PoE powers it.
This listing is the on-wall build, fixed on the wall surface with its bracket, 145 × 85 × 24 mm. The same R20A can also be flush-mounted in an in-wall box, and Akuvox makes rain covers for both. It is IP65 rated and works from -30 °C to +60 °C. For a building that only has an old two-wire intercom cable, the R20A-2 is the two-wire version.

Akuvox R20A On-Wall questions
Can the Akuvox R20A open both the door and the car gate?
Yes. It has two relays that are switched separately, so one can release the door lock and the other trigger the gate controller.
Does the R20A read our existing 125 kHz access cards?
Yes. Its reader takes 125 kHz EM cards as well as 13.56 MHz Mifare and DESFire cards, so older and newer cards can be used together.
How does the R20A see visitors at night?
It has infrared LEDs and a light sensor, so the camera switches to night vision in the dark without shining a visible light at the visitor.
What is the difference between the R20A and the E12S?
The R20A has an aluminium front, infrared night vision, a motion sensor, two relays, RS485 and a reader that also takes 125 kHz cards. The E12S is a slimmer plastic unit with one relay and 13.56 MHz cards only.
Can the R20A be flush-mounted?
The R20A can be flush-mounted with Akuvox's in-wall box. This listing is the on-wall build, which is fixed on the wall surface.
