Akuvox AV-R25A Video Door Intercom

The video door intercom with fisheye camera for residential properties

The Akuvox AV-R25A is a SIP video door intercom with a single doorbell button, specially developed for residential properties and combining security, design and functionality. At its heart is a 4-megapixel camera with fisheye lens and an exceptionally wide viewing angle of 150° horizontal and 150° vertical, providing a very generous view of the entrance area. The camera is complemented by an integrated card reader for 13.56 MHz and 125 kHz cards as well as NFC, an aluminium front panel and a weatherproof IP65 housing.

Flexible mounting: Matching mounting accessories – flush-mount box, flush-mount decorative panel and surface-mount wall bracket, each in black – are available separately. Connection is exclusively wired via Ethernet with Power over Ethernet (802.3af).

According to the manufacturer, the AV-R25A is particularly suitable as a door intercom for offices with local or hosted IP telephone systems, for access at remote sites via the internet, and as an intercom for apartments with access control.

Video, audio and access in one device

The AV-R25A combines all the essential functions of a video door intercom for residential properties in a compact, robust housing.

📷

4 MP fisheye camera

4-megapixel camera with 150°(H)/150°(V) viewing angle for a very wide view of the entrance.

🎙️

Dual audio with anti-echo

Clear, lag-free conversations thanks to echo cancellation and noise filtering.

🔌

Ethernet & PoE

Connection exclusively by cable – stable connection without Wi-Fi dependency.

🪪

Card reader 13.56 MHz, 125 kHz & NFC

Integrated reader for modern and older card technologies as well as NFC in one device.

🏢

For IP-PBX & apartments

According to the manufacturer, suitable for office door intercoms with IP-PBX as well as apartment intercoms.

How the AV-R25A is built

The housing of the AV-R25A is designed for use at apartment and office doors and combines camera, doorbell button and card reader in a slim front.

1

Aluminium front panel

The front consists of aluminium, giving the device additional mechanical stability for continuous outdoor use.

2

Fisheye camera

4-megapixel camera optics with fisheye lens and an exceptionally wide field of view of 150° horizontal and 150° vertical, supplemented by a light sensor and a motion sensor for detecting activity in front of the door.

3

Doorbell button with card reader

A single blue backlit doorbell button is located directly above the integrated card reader for 13.56 MHz, 125 kHz and NFC technologies.

4

Microphone and speaker

Discreetly built-in microphone and speaker handle the voice connection with dual-audio and anti-echo technology.

5

Connections on the rear

On the rear are the Ethernet connection with PoE, two relay outputs, two inputs as well as interfaces for Wiegand and RS485 for connecting external access components.

6

Mounting type and tamper protection

The housing is available as a flush-mount variant (R25A-In-Wall) or surface-mount variant (R25A-On-Wall) and is equipped with a tamper alarm against forced dismantling.

Flexible ways to open the door

Depending on the application, the AV-R25A can be used in different ways for access release.

  • Release via a connected video station in the building
  • Holding a 13.56 MHz, 125 kHz or NFC card to the integrated reader
  • Release via a connected IP telephone system (on-site or hosted)
  • Individual control of two separate relays via DTMF tones, e.g. for door and gate
💡

Practical example: A visitor rings at the apartment door. The resident receives the video call on the connected video station, sees the person thanks to the 150° fisheye camera in a very wide field of view and, if needed, specifically opens one of the two connected relays, for example for the apartment door and the main entrance.

Reliable image even in the dark

The camera of the AV-R25A is permanently active and automatically adapts to lighting conditions.

  • Camera permanently in operation, no manual wake-up required
  • Auto-night mode with LED lighting as well as infrared LED for recordings in the dark
  • Automatic white balance for natural colour reproduction
  • Minimum illumination of 0.1 lux for recordings in very low light
  • Two relays can be controlled independently of each other via DTMF tones
  • Motion sensor and tamper alarm for additional security

Integration into existing systems

The AV-R25A is designed as an open SIP device and can be used both standalone and in larger access and video environments.

SIP

Direct integration into IP telephone systems and SIP-capable endpoints.

ONVIF

Connection of the camera image to common video management and surveillance systems.

Wiegand & RS485

Connection of external access readers or serial third-party devices via two open interfaces.

ACMS / SDMC

Central management of multiple Akuvox devices via the Akuvox management platforms, ideal for multiple sites or access points.

For voice transmission, the AV-R25A uses SIP versions v1 (RFC2543) and v2 (RFC3261) as well as the audio codecs G.711a, G.711µ and G.722, supplemented by echo cancellation, voice activity detection and a comfort noise generator. On the network side, the device supports, among other things, IPv4, HTTP(S), FTP, DNS, NTP, RTSP, RTP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, DHCP and ARP. The camera uses a 1/3.2" CMOS sensor, delivers video streams in H.264 with resolutions from CIF to 2K (2000×2000 pixels, up to 30 fps) and can also be connected to third-party network video recorders (NVRs) thanks to ONVIF.

Also designed for many users standalone

The AV-R25A can manage access data locally on the device even without central management software.

Up to 1,000 users

Local user management directly on the device, even without ACMS/SDMC.

Up to 20,000 cards

Sufficient storage capacity even for larger sites with many authorised persons.

13.56 MHz, 125 kHz & NFC

Integrated card reader supports both RFID frequencies as well as NFC.

Maintenance and operation from remote

For professional operation and remote maintenance, the AV-R25A includes several administrative functions.

  • Auto-provisioning for automated initial setup
  • Management via a web-based management portal
  • Web-based packet dump for network diagnostics
  • Backup and restore of the configuration
  • Export of access logs (entry logs)
  • Export and import of access tables
  • Firmware updates via the web interface
  • System logs including door access logs

Robustly built for continuous outdoor use

As a door station, the AV-R25A is exposed to the elements and potential sabotage – the design is accordingly geared toward continuous operation.

  • Aluminium front panel for additional mechanical robustness
  • IP65 protection rating against dust and water jets
  • Integrated tamper alarm in case of forced dismantling
  • Motion sensor for additional environmental detection

Commissioning in a few steps

Setting up the AV-R25A can be completed in a short time even without prior knowledge.

  1. Determine mounting type: prepare flush-mount or surface-mount variant (R25A-In-Wall / R25A-On-Wall) accordingly
  2. Mount the device and connect the Ethernet/PoE cable
  3. Perform basic setup via the web interface of the door station
  4. Optional: enrol cards and wire relays/inputs for door opener or gate control
  5. Optional: integrate into an existing SIP telephone system (on-site or hosted) or ONVIF video management software
