AE2000Plus
The Ultimate in Telephone Entry.
A multi-tenant system
network-ready for
expansion.

The big picture.
A display that welcomes
and informs.
As befitting Linear’s flagship
telephone entry system, Linear
has equipped the AE2000Plus with
an attractive, highly functional
display. Visitors will have no trouble
using the AE2000Plus to locate and
contact residents. A temperaturecompensated, back-lit, VGA resolution,
LCD display presents up to 24 names
at a time on separate alphabetical
screens. That is in stark contrast to
most telephone entry systems, which
require you to scroll continuously
through the entire alphabet, searching
for a name. The three keys directly
below the display operate as “soft
keys,” changing functions with each
mode. For instance, in the Directory
Mode, the keys become A and Z
directional controls for scrolling
through the alphabetical listings.
In the Information Mode, the keys
permit switching
between English and
Spanish.
The AE2000Plus is quite the
greeter and the instructor.
Its friendly, automatic
voice prompts guide
visitors step-by-easy-step
to simplify usage. That
includes switching to provide
instructions in either English
or Spanish.

The guiding principle behind Linear’s
AE2000Plus is that a telephone entry
system should be a model of simplicity.
Easy to specify. Easy to install. Easy to
configure. Easy to expand. And above
all, easy to use. A close examination of
every aspect of this feature-rich system
reveals that ease is an across-the-board
attribute.
A 10,000 user capacity is standard
with the AE2000Plus.
to access programming using Linear's
AccessBase2000 software. Both choices
allow multiple unit connectivity (see
capabilities in the table on the back
page).
NOT JUST TELEPHONE ENTRY.
TELEPHONE ENTRY WITH ACCESS
CONTROL.
You could use the AE2000Plus as just a
telephone entry system. It has a 10,000
user capacity and each user can have a
unique directory code. Handy features
like a programmable display message,
adjustable talk time, and extended talk
time per user add more value. However,
the real benefits of the AE2000Plus
stem from its powerful access control
capabilities. Access can be allowed or
denied based on 32 programmable
criteria — security levels (32 Validation
Groups), by date and time (32 Time
Zones), by door (32 Door Schedules).
In addition, so you can keep a running
check of all entrances and exits, the
AE2000Plus maintains a transaction log
of the last 20,000 events.
EXHIBIMOS ESPAÑOL.
For those of you who don’t speak
Spanish, that means “We display
Spanish,” a very valuable built-in
attribute for an telephone entry/
access control system. The bilingual AE2000Plus gives visitors
that option right up front, so that
all subsequent instructions are as
easy to follow in Spanish as they
are in English.
Commercial sites, like
apartments, condominiums, residential
communities, and industrial complexes
can all benefit from its simplicity and
expansive range of capabilities.
The AE2000Plus provides control for
up to four portals (gates and/or doors).
It includes a built-in radio for adding
remote control via user transmitters.
No matter what size your telephone
entry requirements run, it is likely that
Linear can supply a system. With many
years in the field, we have assembled
a family of products to address nearly
every need.
By every meaningful measure, Linear
makes telephone entry easy.
TWO PROGRAMMING
CHOICES:
AE2000Plus now offers you two
programming choices. Use any PC at
any location to access programming
using Linear's AXNET that is built into
the controller. Or use a dedicated PC
RUGGEDLY BUILT
FOR EVERYDAY USE.
Telephone entry systems get a lot of
use (and sometimes even abuse). The
system is housed in a heavy-duty 16
gauge powder coated steel cabinet
with a 16 gauge brushed stainless
steel, articulated, double-locking front
panel. Its built-in keypad is likewise
manufactured for constant pressure
applied by many fingertips over many
years. Individually illuminated back-lit
keys make it easy to read even after
hours.
MEDIA EXPERT.
FROM TRANSMITTERS.
TO CARD READERS.
TO KEYPADS.
Building access control around the
AE2000Plus is easy, because the system
supports so many diverse devices. A
variety of other door/gate controls can
be added to manage access at other
entrances. Two sets of Wiegand inputs
allow connection of most standard
card readers. The AE2000Plus can also
accept external wired keypads. A builtin radio that employs Linear’s popular

MegaCode® format permits use of
handheld, visor clip, and keychain
transmitters (not coincidentally,
Linear offers the industry’s largest
selection of styles) to achieve
additional remote control over
gates and
door openers.
The integral
receiver can
also be used
with external
remote
receivers
and a choice
of optional
antennas
for added
range and
capabilities.
IN LIVING COLOR.
AN OPTIONAL CCTV CAMERA.
Getting a clear picture of what’s
going on at any entrance at any
given time is as easy as adding an
optional, color cctv camera
(CCM-1A) to the AE2000Plus. It
installs inside and receives power
from the control board. The color
camera doesn’t just add value to the
AE2000Plus; it adds security to any
installation. You can add a CPDM-1
to combine the video signal with
an existing CATV network. This will
allow all tenants in a development
to view on their TVs, who is calling
them from the AE2000Plus.
SURFACE. FLUSH.
GOOSENECK.
YOUR INSTALLATION
OPTIONS KEEP
MOUNTING.
The AE2000Plus goes
just about anywhere
telephone entry is
needed. An optional
trim ring and a standard
stainless steel enclosure
with articulating double-
lock configuration
combine to make it wholly unique
— the industry’s only telephone
entry system with a living hinge
that can also be flush mounted.
The AE2000Plus can also be surface
mounted or put on a gooseneck to
give you total installation flexibility.
MORE OPTIONS
FOR A FULL-FEATURED
SYSTEM.
In addition to the aforementioned
remote control transmitters, color
CCTV monitoring, alternative
mounting accessories, and extended
range antennas.
CONTROL FUNCTIONS
BEYOND THE DOOR AND/OR
GATE.
The AE2000Plus has four built-in
general purpose (form “C”) relays.
Each can be configured for
open/close. Any one can be
used for the control relay and
the others for a myriad of
auxiliary control functions,
including activation of
safety edge reverse, external
lighting, or alarm shunting.
In addition, the AE2000Plus
supports request to exit and
door status monitoring for
each relay. All relay contacts
have extensive RFI, arc, and
lightning suppression.
