Akuvox AV-S562W GRAY Video Station

The Wi-Fi Video Station for Akuvox Intercoms

The Akuvox AV-S562W GRAY is a Linux-based indoor video station with a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen. It serves as a central control unit for Akuvox intercoms: incoming calls from door stations are displayed with a live image, and the door can be opened directly via the touchscreen. The manufacturer describes the device, matching its compact and elegant design, as a combination of design and technology that blends unobtrusively into modern residential and commercial environments.

Wireless or traditionally wired: Unlike models without a “W” in the name, the AV-S562W GRAY connects to the network via Wi-Fi and therefore does not require a continuous network cable to the mounting location. Alternatively, an RJ45 network port with Power over Ethernet is still available. Power is supplied accordingly via PoE (802.3af) or an external 12V DC power supply.

In addition to pure door communication, the AV-S562W GRAY can also display live images from connected surveillance cameras via RTSP with H.264 codec, serving as a small control station for both door and camera in a single device.

Touchscreen, Live Image and Audio in One Device

The AV-S562W GRAY combines the most important functions of an indoor station for video intercom systems in a compact housing.

📹

Camera Integration via RTSP

Additional integration of surveillance cameras via RTSP with H.264 codec.

🔊

Bidirectional Audio

Hands-free communication with microphone (-42 dB) and speaker (4Ω/2W) including anti-echo function.

How the AV-S562W GRAY Is Built

The housing of the AV-S562W GRAY is deliberately compact and understated so that the video station blends unobtrusively into residential and commercial spaces.

1

Front Panel with Touchscreen

The front is made of gray plastic (PC housing) and is completely dominated by the 7-inch capacitive touchscreen, through which all operation is performed.

2

Microphone and Speaker

Discreetly built into the housing, the microphone (-42 dB) and speaker (4Ω/2W) handle bidirectional voice communication with anti-echo function.

3

Wi-Fi Module

An integrated Wi-Fi module (IEEE 802.11 b/g/n/ax, 2.4 GHz) enables wireless network connection without additional cabling to the mounting location.

4

Rear Connections

On the rear there are two RJ45 Ethernet ports (PoE-capable), one relay output, one doorbell input, eight alarm inputs/outputs as well as interfaces for RS485 and a 12V DC socket for external power supply.

5

Mounting and Tamper Protection

The video station can be used both wall-mounted and as a desktop device and is equipped with tamper protection (Tamper Resistant) against forced removal.

How the Door Is Opened

As an indoor station, the AV-S562W GRAY is the central point of contact for incoming calls from door stations and their release.

  • Answering video calls from connected Akuvox intercoms
  • Door opening directly via the 7-inch touchscreen
  • Additional display of live images from integrated surveillance cameras via RTSP
  • Two-way audio communication with the door station via microphone and speaker
💡

Practical example: The doorbell rings at the front door. On the AV-S562W GRAY in the hallway, the live image from the door station appears automatically. The resident speaks directly to the visitor via the device and opens the door with a tap on the touchscreen.

Integration into Existing Systems

The AV-S562W GRAY is designed as a SIP endpoint and can be combined with both Akuvox door stations and other network components.

SIP

Supports SIP v1 (RFC2543) and SIP v2 (RFC3261) for integration as an indoor station in SIP-based intercom systems.

RTSP Cameras

Integration of surveillance cameras via RTSP with H.264 codec directly on the touchscreen.

RS485

Serial interface for connecting additional components or third-party devices.

Relay & I/O

One relay output, one doorbell input and eight alarm inputs/outputs for additional wiring.

For audio transmission, the AV-S562W GRAY uses the codecs G.711a, G.711µ, G.729 and G.722, supplemented by DTMF support (In-Band, Out-of-Band according to RFC2833 as well as SIP Info) and an anti-echo function. On the network side, the device supports, among others, IPv4, HTTP(S), FTP, SNMP, DNS, NTP, RTSP, RTP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, DHCP and ARP – video is processed in H.264 format.

Designed for Continuous Indoor Operation

As a pure indoor device, the AV-S562W GRAY is not intended for outdoor use, but includes features for reliable continuous operation.

  • Tamper protection (Tamper Resistant) against forced removal
  • Energy-saving mode for the touchscreen in standby
  • Operating temperature from -10 °C to +45 °C, storage from -20 °C to +70 °C
  • Permissible humidity from 10 to 90 %
  • NDAA-compliant and therefore also suitable for government agencies and public clients
  • CE, FCC and RCM certified
