Integration of the Ekinex IP Dico video intercom system in letterbox systems from Briefkasten Manufaktur
In a world in which design, functionality and smart technologies are increasingly merging, discerning building owners, architects and property planners are focussing on holistic solutions. The combination of the high-quality letterbox systems from Briefkasten Manufaktur with the innovative IP Dico video intercom system from the Italian manufacturer Ekinex is a prime example of how technological sophistication and design standards can be combined to create a harmonious overall system.
Ekinex - Italian design meets high-end technology
The Ekinex brand is recognised worldwide for Italian engineering and design finesse. Designed and manufactured in Italy, Ekinex products combine precise technology with minimalist, functional design. The clear lines, high-quality materials and intuitive operating concepts are the result of a philosophy that does not separate aesthetics and technology, but harmoniously integrates them.
The IP Dico video intercom system embodies this claim perfectly: with a design that is only 192 mm wide, 88 mm high and 27.5 mm deep, it blends discreetly into any architectural environment. The elegant aluminium housing with glass front conveys value and modernity - ideal for stylish entrance areas that need to be both functional and representative.
Smart, secure and versatile: the functions of the IP Dico in detail
The Ekinex IP Dico is much more than a conventional doorbell system - it is a powerful access control system with a wide range of functions for modern buildings. Here is an overview of the most important features:
✅ Flexible authentication
IP Dico offers a wide range of verification methods that can be used individually or in combination:
-
Face recognition with visible light
-
Mobile app (Delégo)
-
NFC and RFID cards (contactless)
-
PIN codes and QR codes
-
IC cards
This means that every user can choose the right method depending on their use case or security level.
✅ High-end facial recognition with anti-spoofing
Thanks to a dual camera system and an anti-spoofing algorithm, the IP Dico recognises faces at lightning speed - in under 0.2 seconds per user - and reliably protects against manipulation by photos or videos. The facial recognition accuracy is over 99.7 %, making it the ideal solution for security-relevant entrances.
The storage capacity includes up to 300 images and 300 cards - enough for large residential complexes, office buildings or commercial buildings with many authorised persons.
✅ Audio and video communication in real time
The Ekinex IP Dico enables full-duplex audio with echo cancellation and video calls with IP telephones, the Delégo Panel or the Delégo mobile app. This allows visitors to be identified and doors to be opened remotely - ideal for frequent travellers or business users with changing visitors.
✅ Touchscreen interface with intuitive navigation
The capacitive 5" touch display ensures smooth, user-friendly operation. All functions can be called up via a structured, minimalist user interface, which means a pleasant experience for both visitors and residents - in keeping with the Italian design philosophy.
✅ Robust technology for outdoor use
With an IP65 protection rating, a temperature range of -20 °C to +55 °C and high humidity tolerance (10 - 90 %, non-condensing), the IP Dico is ideally equipped for outdoor use - even in extreme weather conditions.
Perfect integration into letterbox systems from Briefkasten Manufaktur
Customised cut-outs and clean integration
Briefkasten Manufaktur offers customised front panels that are precisely matched to the dimensions of the IP Dico. The precisely laser-cut front panel allows seamless integration of the system - without any visual breaks. The result is an aesthetically pleasing overall appearance that doesn't hide the technology, but consciously integrates it into the design.
Compatible with all installation types
Whether free-standing, wall-mounted, flush-mounted or surface-mounted - Ekinex IP Dico can be integrated into any installation variant. This means that the access solution can be ideally adapted to the architectural and functional requirements of the respective project.
Simple installation thanks to IP technology
All you need to commission the IP Dico is a power supply (PoE), an internet connection and a door opener connection. Configuration is carried out conveniently via a web browser, which saves time and facilitates set-up by specialised personnel.
