OVERVIEW
When large sprawling corporate campuses and exclusive
communities with up to 750 employees or residents need
a gatekeeping unit, they move up to the gold standard:
EntraGuard
™
Gold.
The EntraGuard Gold works as a standalone telephone
entry/intercom system or it integrates seamlessly with the
Tiger Series Access Control System. Once networked, the
EntraGuard Gold manages multiple gates or doors via RS-485.
The EntraGuard Gold comes in two versions: with a
Standard Keypad and accessories or with a Radiant Keypad
and accessories.
The Standard Keypad version features a waterproof
lighted keypad that has a Class IP65 rating. It can be outfitted
as is, or you can equip it with a telephone handset and/or
a low-light black-and-white camera. The handset enables
private conversations while the camera is used to visually
identify visitors at the gate.
The equally durable Radiant Keypad version with
alphanumeric searching and scrolling capability make it
simple for visitors to locate employees or residents in a large
directory. In addition, the Radiant Keypad has no mechanical
or moving parts that can wear out. It, too, can be equipped
with a telephone handset and/or a low-light black-and-white
camera.
Both keypad versions feature a soft-white LCD that displays
up to 4 lines of text with 20 characters per line. You can
program the LCD with up to three scrolling messages.
It’s perfect for greeting visitors and providing them with
instructions on using the system.
The EntraGuard Gold can store directory codes up to six
digits long. Plus it can store phone numbers with 7–15 digits.
An internal modem is included for remote programming
via RS-485. You can make additions and updates to the system
quickly, and the updates don’ t require a connection to each
unit on the line.
When choosing a keypad, you must carefully consider
ambient lighting at your entrance. In prolonged direct
sunlight, a Radiant Keypad might not appear bright enough.
In that case, choose the Standard Keypad.

Telephone entry and intercom systems.
Technically Speaking
The need to provide secure access to a business or
community has never been greater . What should you look
for in an entry and intercom system? What does your system
need to accomplish? There are some basic choices that all
system owners should consider .
A visitor should be able to call an employee’s or a
resident’s telephone. The system may have a handset or
it may work with a speakerphone. Maybe there is direct
access to the phone number via an easy-to-access directory.
Or a keypad may be used to gain access through a locked
gate or door .
The employee or resident should be able to grant access
to the visitor by touching a key on his or her telephone. Most
systems should have some form of event memory, which logs
who gains access and who permits it. Most systems should
enable you to connect via modem or LAN to the overall access
control network.
The telephone entry controller may be designed to
communicate over an ordinary, voice-grade telephone line
or a dedicated cabling system.
And finally, some systems might need to of fer features
for the Postal Service or for persons with disabilities.
Identifying visitors by voice.
With a telephone entry and intercom system, the most
common way residents or employees can identify a visitor is
when the visitor speaks into the call box’s speakerphone or
telephone handset. However , a visitor with ill intent might
be able to trick the employee or resident into letting him or
her in, for example, by misrepresenting who he or she is. In
addition, the noise level near the call box might make
conversation difficult. For basic ID purposes, a speakerphone
is fine. But there is a better measure for added security:
closed-circuit TV (CCTV).
Identifying visitors by voice and CCTV.
If you want to verify your visitor’s identity without leaving
the security of your office or home, opt for a telephone entry
and intercom system with CCTV capability.
This security method features a CCTV camera at the call
box. When your business or residence receives a phone call
from a visitor at the gate, you can also get a visual on a
nearby CCTV monitor or turn your TV set to Channel 2.
If you have deliveries made after dark to your business or
home, voice and CCTV identification bring you added security.
Different sizes of telephone entry
and intercom systems.
“One size fits all“ does not apply when it comes to
choosing a telephone entry and intercom system.
