The high-end video door intercom for exclusive residential properties
The Akuvox AV-X915S is a SIP video door intercom with a front panel made of 316 stainless steel and an 8-inch touchscreen, positioned by the manufacturer specifically for the luxury segment. Akuvox describes the device as a high-quality combination of design, current technology and durable materials – intended for condominiums, apartment complexes, office buildings, gated communities and industrial sites where a visually demanding and fully customisable access solution is required. The station runs on Android, which enables individual customisation and the integration of third-party software.
Marine-grade material: The front panel is made of 316 stainless steel in a dark “Tarnish” finish – a steel alloy with particularly high corrosion resistance that is also used in maritime environments or under aggressive weather conditions. Combined with IP66 protection rating and IK10 impact resistance, the X915S ranks among the most robust door stations in the Akuvox portfolio.
Door opening is available via facial recognition, the integrated card/NFC reader, PIN code entry, Bluetooth (BLE) or QR code.

How the AV-X915S is built
The housing of the AV-X915S is designed as a closed stainless steel unit with clearly structured functional areas. From top to bottom, the device can be divided into the following sections:
Camera section with dual camera
In the upper area are the 5-megapixel main camera with Starlight technology for low-light environments and a 2-megapixel secondary camera with automatic light adjustment. The optics are complemented by an infrared LED, an additional white light LED, a light sensor and a motion sensor. The field of view covers 120° horizontal and 64° vertical.
8-inch touchscreen
Centrally located in the housing is the 8-inch IPS display with 800x1280 pixels. Video calls, visitor display, PIN entry and operation of the integrated directory are handled via the touchscreen – controlled by an open Android operating system.
Card and NFC reader
Below the display is the RF reader for 13.56 MHz (including MIFARE, DESFire) and 125 kHz cards (EM) as well as NFC for door opening via compatible smartphone.
Microphones and speakers
Two microphones and two speakers handle the two-way voice connection including echo cancellation; an additional line output allows the connection of an external speaker or amplifier.
Rear connections
On the rear are the Ethernet connection with Power-over-Ethernet (802.3at), a connector for 24 V DC power supply (2.5 A), three relay outputs for door openers or additional devices, three inputs as well as interfaces for Wiegand (input/output selectable) and RS485.
Housing, mounting and tamper protection
The front panel is made of 316 stainless steel in a dark “Tarnish” finish; the overall housing is protected to IP66 against dust and strong water jets as well as to IK10 against mechanical impact – the highest protection class combination in the Akuvox door station portfolio. Mounting is possible either flush or surface-mounted; a tamper alarm reports forced removal attempts.
Five ways to open the door
The AV-X915S combines classic and biometric access methods in one device.
- Facial recognition directly via the integrated dual camera
- Presenting an EM, MIFARE or DESFire card to the RF reader
- Entering a personal PIN code on the touchscreen
- Release via Bluetooth (BLE) with a paired smartphone
- Scanning a QR code, for example for time-limited visitor access
Practical example: A resident of an exclusive residential complex approaches the entrance. The AV-X915S recognises the face in under 200 ms – reliably even at dusk thanks to the Starlight camera – and opens the door automatically. A visitor instead scans a previously received QR code or enters a PIN code on the touchscreen.
