Designed for the IX-DVF

The SBX-IDVF is the compatible surface-mount enclosure for the:

Aiphone IX-DVF – IP Video Door Station

The IX-DVF normally installs flush using its supplied back box. Adding the SBX-IDVF allows the station to be installed directly onto a wall surface without requiring a deep recessed opening.

Compatible Door Stations

Aiphone lists the SBX-IDVF for compatible stations including:

• IX-DVF

• IX-DVF-SS/A

Legacy Aiphone documentation also lists compatibility with:

• IS-DVF

• IS-IPDVF

• IS-SS

• IX-SSA

Always verify the exact door-station model before ordering.

Surface-Mount Conversion

The SBX-IDVF is ideal when:

• Cutting a recessed opening into the wall is impractical

• Wall depth is insufficient for a flush back box

• Existing construction requires surface mounting

• Additional wiring space is needed

• Conduit must enter the enclosure

• An existing installation is being retrofitted

Interior Wiring Space

The enclosure provides approximately 2-1/8" of interior depth, offering additional room for:

• CAT-5e / CAT-6 network cable

• 24VDC power wiring

• Relay wiring

• Door-release connections

• Trigger inputs

• Access-control wiring

This can simplify installation when multiple connections are required at the door station.

Weather & Vandal Resistance

The SBX-IDVF is designed for demanding commercial environments.

Features include:

• Heavy-duty stainless-steel enclosure

• Weather-resistant construction

• Vandal-resistant design

• Bottom drainage opening

• Protected interior cabling space

When paired with a compatible IX Series door station, it provides a durable solution for exterior and high-traffic entrances.

Mounting Options

The SBX-IDVF can be installed:

• Directly to a flat wall

Cable can enter through the rear knockout or through the conduit knockout at the bottom of the enclosure.
