Access controller Hikvision DS-K2604T Grey 345x373x98mm

The Hikvision DS-K2604T Grey is a compact access controller designed for secure entry management in commercial and institutional environments. Measuring 345x373x98mm, this grey metal enclosure houses the DS-K2600T series controller platform, providing network and RS-485 interfaces with support for TCP/IP and RS-485 communication. Communication data is encrypted to enhance system security, and the device supports offline operation with a tamper-proof switch for physical protection.

Advantages

The controller offers encrypted TCP/IP and RS-485 communication for improved data security and interoperability with existing Hikvision access control systems. Its compact metal enclosure with tamper-proof switch is suitable for rack or wall mounting and helps protect electronics in sensitive installations. Offline operation capability enables continued local access control during network interruptions, while compatibility with Hikvision peripherals simplifies integration and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Small to medium office buildings and corporate access control
• Educational institutions and campus facilities
• Retail back offices and restricted storage areas
• Integration into existing Hikvision control systems and RS-485 networks

Key specifications

• Dimensions: 345 x 373 x 98 mm (W x H x D)
• Interfaces: TCP/IP (network) and RS-485
• Communication protocols: TCP/IP and RS-485 with encrypted data transmission
• Operating mode: Online and offline access control support
• Enclosure: Grey metal housing with tamper-proof switch

How to use

Install the DS-K2604T in a secured cabinet or on a prepared wall surface according to local electrical and building codes. Connect the controller to the site network via TCP/IP for central management and to peripheral devices via RS-485 where required. Configure the device within the Hikvision access control software to define door parameters, user credentials and schedules. If network connectivity is lost, the controller continues to operate in offline mode using locally stored configuration and access data. Ensure the tamper-proof switch is properly positioned to detect unauthorized access to the enclosure.

Recommendations

The controller should be installed in a dry, well-ventilated environment away from direct heat sources. For optimal security and performance, integrate the DS-K2604T with Hikvision management software and regularly update firmware via authorized channels. Use surge protection on network and power lines and follow local regulations for wiring and mounting.
