The Hikvision DS-KH6350-WTE1 KH6 Series IP indoor station functions as a central visualization, communication, and control interface for network-based physical security and intercom infrastructure. Engineered to operate over standard TCP/IP networks via an RJ-45 10/100 Mbps port or 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11b/g/n), the station serves as a local terminal for handling calls, managing access points, integrating third-party alarms, and viewing IP video streams.
Commercial Office Reception and Multi-Point Intercom
In commercial facilities, corporate offices, and administrative buildings, entry management often spans several physical barriers including perimeter gates, lobby vestibules, and secure departmental partitions. The DS-KH6350-WTE1 can link with up to 17 external IP door stations and 16 internal indoor extensions. This topology allows front desk personnel or floor administrators to monitor multiple checkpoints from a single 7-inch capacitive touch screen (1024 × 600 resolution).
- Multi-Door Surveillance: Operators can switch between live H.265/H.264 video streams from door stations and network cameras deployed in public areas using RTSP.
- Direct Barrier Actuation: Two onboard lock control relays (rated up to 30 VDC, 0.3 A) enable operators to release pedestrian turnstiles, electromagnetic locks, or automatic door operators directly from the indoor console interface.
- Acoustic Clarity: The integrated omnidirectional microphone and loudspeaker use hardware noise suppression and echo cancellation with wideband audio codecs (G.711, Opus, AAC-LD, AAC-LC, G.726, G.722.1) to ensure intelligible two-way speech across reverberant lobby spaces.
Multi-Tenant Residential and Mixed-Use Buildings
For residential apartments, gated developments, and mixed-use commercial-residential towers, the DS-KH6350-WTE1 manages resident-visitor interactions and vertical transport control. Operating within an ambient temperature range of -10 °C to 50 °C, the device integrates directly into broader building automation schemes.
- Elevator Access Control Integration: The station interfaces with elevator control systems, permitting residents to release floor-level elevator calls for authorized visitors from the display.
- Unanswered Call Messaging: When calls to an apartment or suite go unanswered, the system supports automated voice message capture, retaining audio records and call details on an installed TF card (supporting capacities up to 128 GB).
- Remote Resident Management: Integrated compatibility with the Hik-Connect mobile application extends indoor station functionality to mobile devices, allowing residents to view doorphone cameras, communicate with callers, and grant building access off-premises.
Zone Perimeter Monitoring and Central Alarm Annunciation
Beyond voice and video intercom functions, the DS-KH6350-WTE1 acts as an active physical security terminal via its onboard peripheral wiring interfaces. The station includes 8 wired alarm inputs, 2 alarm outputs, and 1 half-duplex RS-485 serial communication port.
Security integrators can wire zone monitoring sensors—such as door contacts, magnetic switches, and emergency panic buttons—directly into the alarm inputs. When triggered, the station initiates local visual and acoustic alerts, logs up to 200 alarm records internally, captures snapshot imagery, and transmits event signals across the IP network to notify the central management monitoring station. Notice logs retain up to 200 broadcast alerts directly within internal memory.
Desktop Command and Wall-Mounted Dispatch Consoles
The DS-KH6350-WTE1 adapts to varying physical control points with support for wall-mount brackets or desktop placement using the DS-KABH6350-T table mount bracket. Power delivery via standard IEEE 802.3af PoE streamlines cabling over structured Cat5e/Cat6 runs, while isolated 12 VDC, 1 A terminal blocks accommodate installations utilizing dedicated DC distribution networks (such as the optional DS-KAW50-1 or DS-KAW50-1N power supplies). Commissioning requires no external PC; field engineers can configure IP addresses, SIP accounts, extensions, and door linkage parameters using the on-screen setup wizard.
