Network Intercom & Panic Stations
RPI-C / RPI-WP / RPIN-C / RPS-1
Condoplex network intercom and panic stations put instant, reliable communication throughout the building — fully audited and interrogated.
A modular system design lets you add stations without purchasing costly base units, as is often the case with standalone intercom products — reducing overall system complexity and ensuring no calls go unanswered.
Condoplex intercoms may be interfaced with doors, garage entrances and elevator control systems for a seamless, fully audited means of granting or denying access. If someone approaches a door without a card, pressing the intercom button opens an audio channel, locks the camera, and on the guard’s instruction, opens the door remotely.
Key Features
What makes the Network Intercoms different
- Vandal- and weatherproof housings for indoor/outdoor use
- Red panic button, interrogated and audited
- Easily interfaces with sirens or strobes
- Audio channel automatically opens to the security desk via web browser
- Each unit and its location individually identified and logged on alarm
- Fully interrogated — the guard is notified if a unit goes off-line
Applications
Where buildings use them
- Condominiums: parking garages, stairwells and amenity rooms, where the front desk can’t see.
- Apartment buildings: parking garages, stairwells and back entrances.
- Senior and assisted living residences: hallways and common areas, so a resident who needs help can reach staff with one button.
- Commercial buildings: parking garages, stairwells and change rooms used by tenants and staff after hours.
- New construction: planned in from the start, on the same platform as the entry phones, access control and suite alarms.
Every alarm is logged by location and must be acknowledged. If no guard is on site, alarms can forward to central monitoring.
Intercom and Emergency Communication Systems
Intercom and panic stations give occupants, visitors and staff a direct line to the security desk in places where a phone or a guard is not close by.
Condoplex stations connect to the same server and database as access control, so a call can be answered and a door or gate released from the guard screen, and each call is logged. They suit building entrances, underground parking, stairwells, change rooms and other isolated areas.
The right station depends on the location. Consider the mounting (pedestal, recessed or surface), whether the station needs a panic button, a call button or both, and whether an alarm should also trigger a strobe or siren. Stations are often paired with telephone entry systems at the main entrance and managed with the rest of the building through Property Connect Plus.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
What happens when someone presses the panic button?
An audio channel opens automatically to the security desk via the guard's web browser. The station and its location are identified, logged and must be acknowledged — with time of acknowledgement and actions taken recorded by the server.
Can the stations be used in parking garages and stairwells?
Yes. Vandal and weatherproof housings make the stations ideal for underground parking areas, stairwells, change rooms and other isolated areas requiring immediate response.
What if there is no guard on site?
Panic alarms and intercom calls can be forwarded to a central monitoring station, so calls are answered even when a concierge or guard is not available.
How do guards know if a station stops working?
Every station is polled and interrogated during each cycle. The system notifies the security desk immediately if a station becomes defective or goes offline — no manual testing rounds required.
