The 1816 Telephone Intercom System offers outstanding features that allow the resident to be in charge of their calls and can interface with up to 1200 phone lines. Ideally suited for apartment buildings, college resident halls, high rise condominiums, office buildings, and public housing authority projects where controlling access into the building is an essential part of a security program


1816 Intercom System-Multi

Seamless Integration from Phone to Entry Point

The Model 1816 Telephone Intercom System is a unique communication and access control device that provides two-way voice communication and control of a main entry door through the resident’s own telephone without the need of a dedicated Central Office (C.O.) phone line. This capability eliminates the need for costly hard-wired intercom systems, monthly line charges and equipment lease payments. The 1816 also provides communication and control of the door even if the resident does not have central office phone service.  The 1816 is ideal for colleges wishing to control access into student Resident Halls, apartment buildings and office buildings.

The 1816 is a component style system that consists of a lobby panel(s), main control cabinet(s) and line interface board(s). The system is built in accordance with the number of telephone lines to be interfaced with.  Contact your professional DKS system installer for more information about this and other DKS products.

No Reprogramming Required
