Akuvox A02 Compact IP Access Control Terminal with Keypad & RFID Reader

Akuvox A02 Compact IP Access Control Terminal with Keypad & RFID Reader

The Akuvox A02 is a stylish, all-in-one access control terminal that combines a door controller, multi-frequency RFID reader and numeric keypad in a single compact housing. Designed for pedestrian and vehicle entry points, it lets building operators authenticate users via PIN code, RFID card or NFC-enabled smartphone, giving flexible two-factor security without the need for a separate controller. Its IP-based architecture, PoE support and weatherproof housing make it equally suited to residential lobbies, gated communities, offices and commercial entrances.

Key Features

• Triple credential support: unlocks doors via numeric keypad PIN, RFID card/fob or NFC-enabled mobile phone.
• Two-factor authentication: combine PIN with RFID or NFC for stronger access security where required.
• Dual-frequency RFID reader: supports both 125kHz and 13.56MHz card technologies, covering the majority of cards already in use on site.
• Large onboard capacity: stores up to 20,000 user credentials and logs up to 100,000 access events locally, even without a network connection.
• Built-in door controller: integrated relay output and inputs mean no separate access controller is required for single-door applications.
• Flexible power and connectivity: runs on PoE (802.3af) or 12V DC, with 10/100Mbps Ethernet and Wiegand interface support for integration with third-party systems.
• Rugged, weatherproof design: IP65-rated housing with an operating range of -20°C to 55°C and an active tamper alarm for outdoor and exposed installations.
• Simple management: configure locally via web browser, or manage remotely through Akuvox's ACMS platform or the Akuvox Cloud / SmartPlus app.
• Easy installation: compact 86 x 86 x 33mm design ships ready to mount, with a surface-mount back plate included for flush or wall mounting.

Ideal Applications

The A02 is well suited to single-door or single-gate access points where a compact, self-contained solution is preferred over a full access control panel. Typical deployments include apartment and townhouse entrances, gated estates, office and warehouse doors, gyms, car parks and pedestrian gates, particularly where installers want the flexibility to issue RFID cards, temporary PIN codes for visitors or contactless NFC credentials from a single device.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the A02 operate without a network connection?
Yes. Credentials and event logs are stored on the device itself, so it can operate as a stand-alone terminal even if network connectivity is lost.

Does the A02 need a separate door controller?
No. A relay output and inputs are built into the unit, allowing it to directly control a door strike or gate motor for single-door applications.

Is the A02 suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes. It carries an IP65 weatherproof rating and a wide -20°C to 55°C operating range, along with a tamper alarm for added security.
