Compatibility & Buying Information
The Fanvil A12 is the audio-only model in the A12 series and does not contain the integrated 4MP camera found on the A12V. When video is required, the A12 can link with a compatible external IP camera, while buyers requiring a built-in camera should use the A12V instead.
The A12 supports SIP-based communications and is compatible with mainstream SIP IP PBX, softswitch, and IMS platforms. Individual intercom, multicast, access-control, and integration functions depend on the configuration and capabilities of the connected platform.
Power can be supplied using IEEE 802.3at Class 4 PoE+ or a 12V to 24V DC / 2A source. The A12 also provides Wiegand, RS-485, USB, line-out audio, microSD storage, two short-circuit inputs, and two relay outputs for integration with compatible access-control, alarm, and security equipment.
The standard A12 package includes the WM612 wall-mounted bracket. Fanvil also supports the EX612 flush-mounted bracket, but the EX612 is an optional accessory that must be purchased separately when flush-mounted installation is required.
