Akuvox S563 in grey is an 8-inch Android 12 SIP indoor monitor. A 1280 × 800 IPS touch screen and front-facing 2 W speaker carry door calls in detail, a built-in English voice assistant hears commands from up to 5 m, and a voice changer helps residents who live alone.
The AK-S563-GREY is Akuvox’s S563 indoor monitor in grey. It answers SIP video calls from Akuvox door stations on a bright 8-inch 1280 × 800 screen, runs Android 12 so residents can add smart-home apps, and adds a voice assistant and voice changer you won’t find on the 7-inch S562.
This SKU is the indoor monitor only.
You receive the grey S563 with its standard mounting hardware. Door stations, the desk stand, surface-mount box, PoE switch and power supply are sold separately.
Door calls arrive in full 1280 × 800 video with on-screen unlock buttons. Talk hands-free, disguise your voice if you’d rather, and open the door with one tap.
Display
An 8-inch 16:10 IPS touch screen at 1280 × 800, 310 cd/m² and 1200:1 contrast, viewable 80° in every direction. Visitors are sharp enough to recognise at a glance.
The front-facing 4 Ω / 2 W speaker and echo cancellation keep two-way calls clear, with G.722 wideband audio and H.264 video.
Android 12
Android 12 with 2 GB RAM and 8 GB storage lets you install third-party apps, so the monitor can double as a smart-home panel for lighting, security and more.
The built-in voice assistant picks up commands from up to 5 m with up to 95% recognition accuracy, processes voice data on the device and understands English.
Voice changer
The voice changer disguises the resident’s voice on door calls — useful for older people or anyone living alone who would rather not reveal it to a stranger.
Eight alarm inputs, a doorbell input, one relay and RS485 connect sensors, a wired bell button and a lock. A tamper alarm flags removal from the wall.
How it works
01
Fix the US or European bracket to the wall box, or straight to the wall; or use the S563 desk stand or surface-mount angle box.
02
Run 802.3af PoE to the RJ45, or use 12 V DC.
03
Register the monitor and door station to each other, or to your SIP PBX, in the web portal.
04
Call from the door, check video and audio, and confirm each unlock button releases the right lock.

Answers
The S563 has a larger 8-inch 1280 × 800 screen, Android 12 with 2 GB RAM, a voice assistant, a voice changer and a tamper alarm. The S562 is the 7-inch 1024 × 600 Linux model.

From an IEEE 802.3af PoE switch or injector, or a 12 V DC supply (Akuvox recommends a 12 V 1 A adapter).
Two brackets are supplied: one for US-style wall boxes and one for European and round boxes. It can also screw straight onto the wall with the supplied anchors. For a desk use the S563 desk stand; to tilt it on the wall, the S563 surface-mount angle box.
It takes English voice commands from up to 5 m away with up to 95% recognition accuracy, and processes voice data on the device for privacy.
Akuvox SIP door stations such as the R20K, R25K, E12S and R28A, plus SIP PBXes and other standard SIP door phones.
Yes. It supports RTSP, so it can show third-party IP cameras and NVR channels next to door calls — the embedded Akuvox video shows how.
The monitor, US and European wall-mounting brackets, 8-pin and 10-pin cables, a diode, foam pads, screws, wall anchors and a crosshead screwdriver. Door station, PoE switch and power supply are separate.
Pick the S563 when residents want a larger screen, Android apps and voice control.
Low-voltage product (SELV). Power from IEEE 802.3af PoE, or a 12 V DC supply (12 V 1 A recommended) where PoE isn’t available.
When a licensed tradesperson is required. Concealed data and intercom cabling is customer cabling under AS/CA S009 and must be installed by an ACMA-registered cabler. Electric locks, maglocks and lock power supplies may require a licensed electrician or security installer.
