Digital-Dial and Telephone Entry Systems

A surface mount telephone entry intercom system for 1 to 1,000 apartments (suites). Available with No-Phone-Line option. Can be supplied with/without privacy handset.

The TE903A/TE904 series Tek-Entry III™ telephone entry intercoms are fully surface mount painted steel master stations that can be used with 1 to 1,000 remote apartment telephone locations. Built-in (and add-on) alphabetical directory modules make finding the tenant's 4-digit code very easy, even in larger buildings.

By entering a simple 4 digit code, the system calls the correct phone number, to allow access. The called party's phone number remains secret. Programming and re-programming are pushbutton simple, and are done right at the keypad.

The TE903A unit has a built-in 100 name directory and electronic capacity for 1,000 users. The TE904 unit has a built-in 200 name directory and electronic capacity for 1,000 users. For additional directory requirements, simply add the AM903D (200-name) expansion directory unit(s) to the TE903A series master unit(s).
