Akuvox S532 Vandal-Resistant Keypad Video Door Phone

The Akuvox S532 is built for entrances that take a beating: the gate of a labour accommodation, a car park, a school or a commercial building open to the street. Its aluminium front is rated IK08 against impact and IP66 against dust and powerful water jets, and it works from -40 °C to +60 °C.

The keypad sits under a 2.8-inch screen that shows the menu and the call status. Visitors type a flat or office number and the call reaches an Akuvox indoor monitor, a SIP phone or the SmartPlus app. Residents and staff open with a PIN, a 125 kHz EM card, a 13.56 MHz Mifare, DESFire or FeliCa card, an Android phone over NFC, or Bluetooth 5.0 with the Akuvox app. It stores 50,000 cards and 500 contacts.

The camera is unusually tall as well as wide: 130° horizontally and 90° vertically at up to 1080p, with infrared night vision and a motion sensor, so someone standing close to the panel or a child at the gate is still in view. An NVR can record it over ONVIF.

For wiring it has two relays, four inputs, RS485 and Wiegand, a line-out and a TF card slot. It needs 802.3at PoE (PoE+), not the lower 802.3af of the smaller door phones, so check the switch. The panel is 301 × 106 × 35.8 mm and mounts flush or on the wall.
