Compact IP Intercoms with HD Video
The X-205 Series of Compact IP Video Intercoms are designed to provide
HD video and reliable handsfree voice communication for SIP VoIP phone
systems and service providers. The built-in IP video camera has H.264
video compression, low light sensitivity, a wide viewing angle of 126
degrees, and can output dual video streams of up to 1080p resolution.
The X-205 intercoms can dial programmable numbers and be
programmed remotely via a built-in Web UI. On-board 2 Amp relay
contacts are provided for activating door strikes or gate controllers. The
X-205 will flash the blue LED during dialing and automatically light the LED
when the call is answered. All units are PoE class 2 powered.
For outdoor installations where the unit is exposed to precipitation or
condensation, the X-205 intercoms are available with Enhanced Weather
Protection (EWP). EWP products are designed to meet IP66 standards
and may feature foam rubber gaskets, sealed connections, gel-filled butt
connectors, as well as potted circuit boards. For more information on EWP,
see DOD 859.
