The 2N IP Force 2.0 is an IP-based video intercom system designed for use in demanding environments where high security requirements, reliable access control, and precise visitor identification are essential. The device features a 5-megapixel camera that ensures clear colour images even in low light conditions and switches to night vision only in complete darkness. The camera supports WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) to minimise glare effects and is equipped with a wide-angle lens providing a horizontal field of view of 133° and a vertical field of view of 122°. An adaptive face zoom supports visitor verification. The camera is fitted with a dome for enhanced impact resistance.

Applications

The IP Force 2.0 is designed for outdoor use and is suitable for locations with high mechanical and climatic stress. It is intended for environments where dust, water, and strong mechanical impacts such as shocks may occur. Therefore, the intercom system is suitable for industrial, commercial, or public facilities where robust and long-lasting technology is required.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The camera integrates IR lighting to ensure clear visibility in darkness. The maximum resolution is 2560 x 1920 pixels. The intercom system features an audio function with noise suppression, a loudspeaker with high volume and adaptive volume control, enabling clear communication even in noisy environments. Automatic audio loop tests ensure continuous sound transmission. The intercom system supports QR code access, allowing guests to be granted access in advance via a QR code, simplifying the access process.

Technology Explained Simply

The IP Force 2.0 is based on the Axis ARTPEC-8 processor, responsible for processing video and audio content as well as integrating security functions. This processor enables, among other things, QR code reading and offers advanced security features such as secure boot, signed firmware, and a secure key store. The intercom system is powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet), allowing power and data to be transmitted over a single network cable. This simplifies installation and reduces the number of required cables.

Compatibility and Accessories

The intercom system is suitable for integration into existing video surveillance systems from other manufacturers. The OSDP interface (Open Supervised Device Protocol) enables secure, encrypted RFID access and facilitates communication with third-party access control systems. Compatible accessories include RFID readers (e.g. 2N IP Force 2.0 RFID Reader 125kHz + 13.56MHz NFC-Ready Wiegand), security relays, induction loop modules, IP Wiegand isolators, power supply variants (e.g. 12V power supply with EU plug), magnetic door contacts, exit buttons, Gigabit PoE+ injectors, and network I/O relay modules (e.g. AXIS A9188 or AXIS A9210). Software solutions such as IP Intercom Gold E-LICENSE, Informacast E-LICENSE, or My2N annual subscription can be used additionally.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out via a network cable that simultaneously transmits power (PoE) and data. The intercom system is designed for outdoor use and requires mounting on a suitable wall or door. The intercom system is suitable for use in systems with I/O functions, enabling control of door openers or alarm systems.

Operational Advantages

The IP Force 2.0 offers high reliability due to its robust construction and integrated security functions. The combination of high image quality, night vision, WDR, and adaptive face zoom enables precise identification of individuals. The integrated audio function with noise suppression and automatic tests ensures clear communication. PoE technology reduces installation complexity, and the OSDP interface facilitates integration into existing access control systems. The intercom system is designed for demanding environments where longevity and security are paramount.
