28 years of video intercom experience – now expanding our non‑visual lineup.
Today, we’re unboxing our latest 16‑button direct‑press outdoor station for apartment buildings. It’s simple, durable, and built for daily use – a perfect fit for older apartments, budget‑conscious projects, or buildings where a reliable audio intercom is all you need.
What’s Inside the Box?
The packaging is straightforward and protective. Inside you will find:
- 16‑button direct‑press outdoor station – aluminum alloy body, IP65 waterproof
- RFID card reader module (integrated)
- Mounting bracket & screws
- Weatherproof gaskets and terminal blocks
- User manual and quick start guide
- Customizable tenant name label strips – write or print room numbers directly on each button
The first thing you notice is the build quality. The aluminum alloy housing feels solid, and the IP65 rating guarantees it will survive rain, snow, dust, and temperature extremes (-40°C to +70°C). The buttons are large, tactile, and designed for thousands of presses – perfect for high‑traffic apartment entrances.
Why a Non‑Visual (Audio‑Only) Outdoor Station?
Not every building needs a video intercom. In many cases – especially older apartment buildings, budget‑friendly housing, or secondary entrances – a simple, reliable audio intercom is the most practical choice.
- Cost‑effective – Lower hardware cost, no screens or cameras to maintain.
- Eenvoudig te installeren – Uses standard 2‑wire or 4‑wire cabling (no network configuration).
- Proven reliability – Fewer components means fewer things that can fail.
- Fast to use – Residents press a button and speak – no learning curve.
FARHD has 28 years of experience in video intercoms, and we are now bringing that same quality and durability to our non‑visual lineup. This 16‑button outdoor station is the first of many.
Belangrijkste functies
16 Direct‑Press Buttons – One Button Per Apartment
Each button corresponds to a specific apartment unit. Visitors simply press the button for the resident they want to call – no keypad searching, no scrolling through names. The tactile, backlit buttons are easy to find at night, and they are rated for heavy daily use.
Non‑Visual (Audio Only) – Simple & Reliable
No camera, no screen. Just clear, two‑way audio between the visitor and the resident’s indoor handset. The system uses mature analog technology that has been field‑tested for decades. When residents pick up the handset, they can talk naturally and press the indoor unlock button to open the building entrance.
IP65 Waterproof + Aluminum Alloy Body
The outdoor station is built to withstand harsh weather. The aluminum alloy body resists corrosion, UV damage, and physical impact. The IP65 rating means it is completely dust‑tight and protected against low‑pressure water jets – heavy rain or a hose spray will not harm it. Operating temperature: -40°C to +70°C.
RFID Card Access for Residents
In addition to the call buttons, the station includes an RFID card reader (125kHz or 13.56MHz, depending on configuration). Residents can simply tap their card to unlock the entrance without calling anyone. This is perfect for daily use – faster and more convenient than a key.
Customizable Tenant Name Labels
Each button has a transparent cover where you can insert a printed or handwritten name label. No more faded numbers or confusing unmarked buttons. Property managers can easily update labels when tenants change.
Perfect for Older Apartments & Budget‑Friendly Projects
| Scenario | Why This Station Fits |
|---|---|
| Old apartment building with existing 2‑wire cabling | Use the existing wires – no rewiring, no wall damage. |
| Low‑budget residential project | Affordable hardware and installation, low maintenance costs. |
| Secondary entrance (garage, back gate) | No need for a full video unit; audio + RFID is enough. |
| Building where most residents don’t want video | Some communities prefer simplicity and lower cost. |
| Replacement of broken old intercom | Direct replacement for many 2‑wire or 4‑wire audio systems. |
Easy Integration with Existing Systems
The station works with standard 2‑wire or 4‑wire audio intercom systems (selectable at order). It can connect to:
- Indoor audio handsets – Simple pick‑up and talk.
- Indoor video monitors with audio support – Even if you have video indoors, you can still use this non‑visual outdoor station.
- Electric locks – Compatible with most electric bolt, magnetic, and strike locks (dry contact relay output).
For larger buildings, you can connect multiple outdoor stations (e.g., front and back entrances) and up to 4 indoor monitors per system.
