A slim video doorbell that needs no data cable.
Wi-Fi 6, 2 MP, IP65.
The AK-E12W-BLACK is Akuvox’s E12W in black: the award-winning E12 single-button doorbell with dual-band Wi-Fi 6 built in. Give it 12 V DC at the door and it joins the home network without a data run — or plug in RJ45 and PoE if a cable is already there.
This SKU is the door station only.
You receive the black E12W surface-mount doorbell. Indoor monitors, rain hood, angle bracket, power supply and lock hardware are sold separately.

- Wall-mounting hardware
- Quick-start guide
- Compatible Akuvox indoor monitor, SmartPlus app or SIP endpoint
- 12 V DC supply at the door (or PoE 802.3af if cabled)
- Electric strike or maglock and lock PSU if the door is released
- E12 rain hood or angle bracket where the door is exposed
One button. No data run.
Visitors press once and the call rings an Akuvox monitor or the SmartPlus app over Wi-Fi. Residents skip the call — tap a card, use NFC or Bluetooth, or unlock from the app.

Camera
See who is there, day or night.
A 2 MP 1/2.7″ CMOS camera covers 123° horizontally and 69° vertically and streams H.264 up to 1920 × 1080 at 30 fps.
A light sensor switches on the white-light LED for night calls, down to 0.1 lux. Echo cancellation keeps two-way audio clear on a busy street.
Connection
Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 — or a cable.
E12W connects over 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax on 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz, so a retrofit only needs power at the door. It keeps an RJ45 10/100 port and 802.3af PoE for sites that have a cable.
Calls run over SIP to Akuvox indoor monitors, the SmartPlus app or a SIP PBX, and the camera streams over RTSP / ONVIF to an NVR.
Access
Card, phone, NFC or Bluetooth.
The 13.56 MHz reader takes MIFARE and DESFire EV1 / EV2 / EV3 credentials, Android phones unlock over NFC, and Bluetooth 5.0 supports phone-based entry. The station holds 1,000 users and 5,000 cards.
One relay releases a strike or maglock; two inputs take an exit button and door sensor, and the Wiegand port is selectable as input or output.
How it works
From button press to open door.
01
Mount
Fix the station to the door frame or pier. Add the E12 rain hood on exposed elevations or the angle bracket to aim the camera.
02
Power and join Wi-Fi
Land 12 V DC (or PoE if a cable is there), then join the station to the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz network in the web portal.
03
Register
Pair it with Akuvox indoor monitors, SmartPlus or your SIP PBX and enrol cards and users.
04
Test the door
Press the button, check the picture day and night, and confirm the relay releases the lock.

Answers
Common questions
What is the difference between E12S and E12W?
Same housing, camera and reader. E12W adds dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (2.4 / 5 GHz) alongside RJ45; E12S is the wired Ethernet version. This listing is the E12W.
Is there a silver version?
Yes. The E12 comes in silver (black glass over a brushed silver panel) and all black. This listing is black; the silver E12W is a separate SKU.
How is it powered?
12 V DC at the door, or PoE 802.3af over RJ45.
Can I unlock the door from my phone?
Yes. SmartPlus app users can answer and unlock, Android phones can unlock over NFC, and Bluetooth 5.0 supports phone-based entry.
Is an indoor monitor included?
No. Pair it with a compatible Akuvox indoor monitor, the SmartPlus app or any SIP endpoint.
A video doorbell for doors without data, local stock.
Choose E12W when the front door has power but no network cable — or E12S when it does. Order through Infront Technologies for Australian stock and pairing advice.
Installation & safety notice
Low-voltage product (SELV). Power from a 12 V DC supply or IEEE 802.3af PoE as stated on the Akuvox E12W datasheet. Treat as SELV low-voltage equipment.
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.
