The DS-KD9203-ME6 by Hikvision is a high-performance IP video intercom door station designed for secure entrance control in outdoor environments. It features two 2 MP wide-angle HD lenses for full-coverage imaging, enabling accurate facial recognition in varying light conditions.
A large 4.3″ colour LCD screen (800 × 480 resolution) provides a clear intuitive user interface and supports on-screen interaction.
Supporting multiple authentication methods — face recognition, M1 card reading, PIN code input — the station flexibly supports access control for residential, commercial or construction-site applications.
Built for outdoor installation, the unit meets IP65 ingress protection to resist dust and water, and is housed in a robust metal frame suitable for high-traffic entry points.
Connectivity and integration are streamlined: the DS-KD9203-ME6 includes network interface (RJ-45), RS-485, alarm input/relay output, and tamper detection. Firmware supports remote configuration via web, enabling installers to fine-tune settings and monitor device status remotely.
Ideal for secure entrances in apartments, offices, campuses or gated communities, the DS-KD9203-ME6 combines advanced imaging, flexible authentication and sturdy construction in a single outdoor-rated station.

Installer Notes
-
Mount the station at suitable height for reliable facial recognition (approx. 1.4 – 1.6 m from ground).
-
Ensure power supply meets specification (12 V DC, 1.5 A) and use protected cabling for outdoor routing.
-
Confirm network settings (IP address, PoE/Power) and enable remote configuration access.
-
Program user templates (faces/cards) prior to commissioning and test multiple access modes.
-
Weatherproofing: verify seals and fixings to maintain IP65 rating; clean lens windows regularly to maintain image clarity.
-
Integrate alarm I/O with door strike, exit button and tamper detection per site access control design.
-
Update firmware to latest version before handover; secure admin credentials and disable default accounts.
