Akuvox AK-A13C Smart IP Mullion Access Control Terminal

Minimalist Design Meets Enterprise IP Control

For installations where a clean aesthetic is a top priority, the Akuvox AK-A13C strips away the physical keypad to deliver a striking, modern look. At only 50mm wide, it installs seamlessly onto narrow architectural trims, structural glass partitions, and metal door components where standard rectangular or square readers fail to align.

Underneath its smooth front fascia, the A13C shares the exact same infrastructure platform as the rest of Akuvox’s advanced IP access range. This means you gain enterprise-grade network capabilities, including native support for the Akuvox SmartPlus cloud, local PC management via SDMC, and legacy system backwards compatibility via standard Wiegand and RS485 (OSDP) terminal outputs. Power and data run over a single Ethernet cable via standard PoE, drastically speeding up installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the main difference between the Akuvox A13C and the A13S PIN?
A: The A13C features a sleek, keypadless front interface designed purely for proximity cards and smartphone access. The A13S PIN features an integrated 12-key touch keypad for numeric password validation.

Q: How do installers find the network IP address without a screen or keypad?
A: Connect the A13C to the local network. Press and hold the internal reset button located on the rear of the device for 5 seconds. The terminal’s built-in speaker will announce the active IP address automatically.

Q: Can the A13C connect to existing third-party access control boards?
A: Yes. The device features integrated Wiegand and RS485 (OSDP capable) connectivity, allowing it to send card read data down to legacy third-party panels.

Q: Does it require a separate 12V power supply run to the door?
A: No. It fully supports standard PoE (Power over Ethernet), meaning power and network communication pass through a single Cat5e/Cat6 data cable.
