Hikvision, a manufacturer and supplier of security products and solutions that deliver the ideal combination of high performance and extreme value, is introducing the new Video Access Control Terminal, the latest addition to our lineup of Identity Authentication Terminals.

The new Video Access Control Terminal combines an HD camera with three authentication methods and two-way audio communication, all housed in a compact, vandal-proof rugged indoor/outdoor enclosure for a powerful, flexible entry solution.

“This new Video Access Terminal lets users choose to support a variety of authentication methods for added flexibility and convenience,” said John Xiao, Vice President of Marketing, at Hikvision USA.

“Simultaneously, it enhances the user experience with video intercom functionality and can even provide video security in an entrance area. At Hikvision, we are dedicated to helping professionals and users make the most of their security investments and device capabilities to improve safety, security, and overall system performance.”

The Video Access Control Terminal model number DS-K1T502DBWX-C has an 81mm by 177mm faceplate that extends just 24mm from the mounting surface. The unit is built for indoor or outdoor use and features IP65 and IK09 ratings for environmental protection.

The 2 MP camera, keypad, and card reader sensor are all located on the front of the device. The network interface, SD card slot, and wiring terminals are on the lower back of the unit.
Wireless support includes not only the card reader, but also Wi-Fi, 2.4G, and Bluetooth. Connection to external access controllers is via a Wiegand protocol, and RS-385 communication provides links for an external card reader if needed.

The unit can be controlled remotely using the Hik-Connect mobile app. This combination of capabilities and connectivity lets the new access control terminal provide a range of valuable services at an entrance, including access control, two-way audio, remote live views, picture capture, video security recording to an NVR, and more.
