The AK-A03 is Akuvox’s A03S. It is the A01’s compact glass-fronted terminal with Bluetooth 5.0 added, so a phone in a pocket or bag becomes the key — and cards and NFC still work for everyone else.
This SKU is the access terminal only.
You receive the A03S terminal. Bkey fobs, cards, the on-wall box, exit button, lock and lock power supply are sold separately.

With Bluetooth, people open the door from their phone without digging out a card. Cards and Android NFC still work, and the built-in relay means the A03S runs the door on its own.

Bluetooth
Phones and Bkey fobs over BLE 5.0.
Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0 lets an enrolled phone running the Akuvox app open the door with a wave or a tap — no card needed.
The Akuvox Bkey Bluetooth fob also works with the A03 on firmware 103.30.10.105 or later, for users who would rather not use a phone.
Cards and NFC
Every other credential still works.
The reader takes 13.56 MHz and 125 kHz cards and fobs, and Android phones can unlock over NFC.
It holds 20,000 users and 20,000 cards and logs 100,000 entries — use it on doors, gates or lift lobbies.


Controller
Runs the door by itself.
One relay drives the lock and two inputs take an exit button and a door sensor. A tamper alarm warns if it is removed.
Toughened glass and aluminium, IP65 and IK07, with flush or surface mounting. Manage it in the web portal, Akuvox Cloud or ACMS.
How it works
From bare door to phone access.
01
Mount
Fit the A03S over an 86 junction box or on the A01/A02/A03 on-wall box.
02
Wire the door
Run PoE to the RJ45, then wire the relay to the lock supply and the inputs to the exit button and door sensor.
03
Enrol
Add users, phones, Bkey fobs and cards in Akuvox Cloud, ACMS or the web portal, with schedules and access levels.
04
Test
Unlock with a phone, a Bkey, a card and NFC, then check the exit button and the access log.
