Product Overview

The Akuvox E16C IP Door Phone is an advanced access control and intercom terminal built to unify contactless authentication, high-definition video communication, and enterprise-grade entrance security. Designed with cutting-edge visible light facial recognition, it enables rapid touchless entry, supporting essential health and hygiene standards across modern commercial environments and residential complexes. Equipped with dual camera optics and intelligent anti-spoofing algorithms, the E16C protects access points against photo and video spoofing attempts while maintaining smooth throughput.

Featuring a bright 5-inch HD IPS color touchscreen, the unit serves as an intuitive digital door station for visitors and staff. It boasts a high-volume database capable of storing up to 20,000 face templates and 20,000 access cards with identification speeds under 0.2 seconds per user. Built with an IP65-rated weather-resistant housing, standard Power over Ethernet (PoE 802.3af), and flexible integration ports (OSDP, Wiegand, RS485), the E16C operates effortlessly as a standalone terminal or integrated system supplied by Total Security Equipment.

Why Choose the E16C

Many conventional access readers rely solely on physical cards that can be lost, shared, or stolen. The Akuvox E16C elevates site security through dual-camera touchless facial recognition, identifying authorized individuals in less than 0.2 seconds while preventing proxy attendance and photo attacks. Available through Total Security Equipment, it combines IP65 outdoor durability, flexible PoE installation, and full Akuvox SmartPlus mobile integration to deliver a modern, secure, and hygienic access control interface.

Buyer Decision Tips

Mounting & Illumination Consideration: While the 2MP WDR camera handles tough backlight, positioning the unit out of direct midday sun glare ensures the fastest possible facial recognition rates.
System Integration Setup: The E16C includes Wiegand, RS485, and relay ports, allowing seamless wiring into third-party access control controllers or running as a completely standalone IP network device.

Choosing the Right Model

Choose this model if…

  • You require fast facial recognition for high user capacities (up to 20,000 faces).
  • Multiple access options like BLE, QR codes, cards, and PINs are needed on one device.

Choose a different model if…

  • A simple single-button intercom is sufficient. If biometric recognition and a touchscreen are unnecessary, a compact single-button door phone (like the E12S) is more economical.
  • Thermal temperature measurement is needed out-of-the-box. Select the specific E16C(MD01) or E16C(MD02) bundled versions if wrist or forehead temperature sensors are required immediately.
