Dual-Device Installation

The SBX-ACE is specifically designed to place two entrance-control components side by side:

Position 1: Compatible Aiphone door station
Position 2: Access-control device

Common access-control devices include:

• Proximity readers

• Smart-card readers

• Keypads

• Credential readers

• Other compact entrance-control devices

This provides a clean, integrated appearance without requiring separate surface boxes for the intercom and reader.

Current Compatible Aiphone Door Stations

Current Aiphone documentation lists the SBX-ACE for:

• GT-D – GT Series Audio Door Station

• JO-DA – JO Series Audio/Video Door Station

• JP-DA – JP Series Audio/Video Door Station

Always verify the dimensions and installation requirements of the exact station before drilling the blank faceplate.

Additional / Legacy Door Station Applications

Aiphone installation documentation also identifies compatibility with select stations including:

• LE-D

• IF-DA

• IX-BA

• JF-DA

• JK-DA

• IX-DA

• KB-DAR

Some of these models are legacy or discontinued products.

For new installations, verify current manufacturer compatibility before ordering.

Blank Stainless-Steel Faceplate

Unlike an enclosure pre-cut for one specific reader, the SBX-ACE includes a blank stainless-steel faceplate.

The installer positions the intercom and access-control device on the faceplate and field-drills the required:

• Mounting holes

• Wire openings

• Device cutouts where required

This allows the enclosure to accommodate a wide variety of access-control readers and keypads.

Standalone Access Control Enclosure

The SBX-ACE can also be used without an intercom station as a hooded surface-mount enclosure for compatible:

• Card readers

• Proximity readers

• Keypads

• Other access-control devices

This makes the enclosure useful for retrofit and custom entrance-control installations.

Weather-Resistant Hood

The enclosure's hood extends over the faceplate to help protect installed equipment from weather exposure.

Additional features include:

• Polished stainless-steel construction

• Protected interior wiring area

• Bottom moisture-drain openings

• Hooded device mounting area

Always follow the environmental ratings of the installed intercom and access-control devices.

Conduit & Wiring Access

The SBX-ACE includes three 7/8" conduit knockouts for routing intercom and access-control wiring.

Its approximately 1-1/2" interior depth provides space behind the devices for:

• Intercom wiring

• Network cable

• Reader wiring

• Door-release wiring

• Request-to-exit wiring

• Power wiring

• Relay connections

Mounting Options

The enclosure can be surface mounted:

• Directly to a wall

• Over a 1-gang electrical box

• Over a 2-gang electrical box

• To an appropriate entrance stanchion or mounting surface

Tamper-Resistant Hardware

The SBX-ACE includes:

• Four 8-32 tamper-resistant screws

• T-15 Torx security bit/tool

The security hardware helps discourage unauthorized removal of the enclosure faceplate.

• Schools and universities
