A slim station for doors and gates.
The AK-X912K is the physical-keypad version of Akuvox’s X912 door phone. A 4-inch square touchscreen, two 2 MP cameras and a 13.56 MHz / 125 kHz card reader sit above a tactile numeric keypad in a 233.5 × 94 mm aluminium panel.

Keys for gloves, faces for everyone else.
A physical keypad suits gates, gloved hands and users who prefer to feel each press. Residents can skip it entirely and enter by face, card, Bluetooth or QR code.

Access
Face, card, PIN, BLE or QR.
Akuvox quotes face recognition in under 200 ms at 99.7% accuracy, with up to 20,000 face templates, 100,000 cards and 20,000 PINs stored on the station.
The reader handles 13.56 MHz and 125 kHz EM, MIFARE and DESFire EV1 / EV2 / EV3 cards. Bluetooth 5.0 enables hands-free entry from the SmartPlus app.
Build
Two relays, three inputs, IP65.
Two relays and three inputs control a door and a gate with exit buttons and door sensors, plus Wiegand in/out and RS485 for access control panels.
The aluminium-alloy panel is rated IP65 and IK08 and works from −20 °C to +60 °C. It surface-mounts on the supplied bracket, or flush with the X912 in-wall kit.
How it works
From bare wall to recognised face.
01
Fit the bracket
Fix the supplied wall bracket with the template, or install the X912 in-wall kit for flush. Add a rain cover or angle bracket where the site needs one.
02
Wire and power
Connect PoE 802.3at or 12 V DC, then the lock relays, exit buttons and door sensor inputs.
03
Register and enrol
Register to Akuvox indoor monitors, SmartPlus or your SIP PBX, then enrol faces, cards and PINs.
04
Test the door
Check face entry day and night, make a test call and confirm each relay releases its lock.

Answers
Common questions
What is the difference between the X912K and X912S?
Same electronics, cameras, capacity and 233.5 × 94 × 34 mm size. The X912K has an aluminium-alloy front with a physical keypad, rated IK08. The X912S has a stainless steel front with a touch keypad, rated IK10.
How many users, faces and cards does it hold?
Up to 20,000 users, 20,000 face templates, 100,000 cards, 20,000 PINs and 5,000 contacts.
How does it stop someone using a photo to get in?
Alongside the 2 MP main camera, a second 2 MP camera and a TOF sensor handle face-liveness detection. Face recognition takes under 200 ms at 99.7% accuracy.
What power does it need?
IEEE 802.3at PoE+ or a 12 V DC supply. It also provides a 12 V / 1 A output for a lock or reader.
Is a mounting bracket included?
Yes. The box includes the wall-mounting bracket, template, screws and wall anchors for a surface mount. For a flush finish add the X912 in-wall installation kit; rain covers, a thick on-wall bracket and a 30° angle bracket are also available.
Which cards and phones can open the door?
13.56 MHz and 125 kHz EM, MIFARE and DESFire EV1 / EV2 / EV3 cards, NFC on Android phones, Bluetooth (BLE 5.0) and QR codes from the SmartPlus app, plus PIN and face.
Will it record to my existing NVR?
Yes. The X912 supports ONVIF and RTSP, so ONVIF-capable NVRs can add the door camera as a channel.
Is there an HID card version?
Akuvox makes a separate X912K HID iCLASS version. This X912K reads standard 13.56 MHz and 125 kHz EM, MIFARE and DESFire credentials.
A compact face-recognition station with a proper keypad.
Choose the X912K for offices, apartment entrances and gates that want facial recognition and tactile keys in a narrow panel.
Installation & safety notice
Low-voltage product (SELV). Power from IEEE 802.3at PoE or a 12 V DC supply. A 12 V / 1 A output is available for a lock or reader.
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.
