Alpha Communications® Video-Intercom Systems

Video-Intercom Systems

Coaxial Type Apt. Video Monitor Station. White Color. Built-in Electric Buzzer Signal or optional Alphatone Chime Signal. Can be desk mounted with optional adaptor.

The Alpha Communications®/S.T.R.™ VMH25AWH (apartment house) series monitors are designed to meet virtually any requirement for video-intercom security. These attractive monitors are surface mounted right on the wall (without any backbox required). Monitors can be changed to desk mount with the addition of a model TZ25WH desk adaptor. For new construction applications, where a rough-in box is required, these monitors may be mounted over the optional model VBB flush housing. All VMH25A series monitors feature a crystal clear 4.0" black and white flat screen monitor (measured diagonally), textured finish handset (to minimize scratches and fingerprints), electric buzzer signaling (adjustable), heavy duty coiled cord with strain relief and two (2) momentary button switches. These switches can be used for door release or other signaling functions, depending upon system configuration. Front mounted controls for brightness, contrast and horizontal hold, make these monitors easy to adjust to your exact viewing requirements. With the addition of a low-cost model R2007 Alphatone™ chime adaptor, you can easily change the electric buzzer to a modern warble chime tone sound (field replaceable).
