Three missions, one device

Easily manage the security of an entire site, separate groups, or activate Night Mode using just one device. It additionally features a Function button, which can be configured as a panic button or to mute fire alarms. KeyPad Outdoor can also operate in bypass mode: it starts an entry delay for users to confirm the security mode change via the main keypad, for example, with another Ajax keypad installed inside the facility.

The keypad can control one or multiple automation devices, such as switches, relays, sockets, outlets, and shut-off valves. For example, a user can open garage doors and turn on outdoor lights when arriving home (or close the garage and turn the lights off when leaving). Just one press of an OK button will set a scenario in motion. The buttons’ backlight indicates the automation device state²: red for off and green for on.

Fast and secure authentication

There are three easy ways to control the keypad, giving users the flexibility to choose what suits them best. Ajax apps display all events, including user activity and authentication details.

Pass card and Tag key fob

With Ajax Pass or Tag, the system can be armed or disarmed with one move of a hand: just present the access device to the keypad reader. Each use of a contactless access device is recorded in the Ajax app event feed. The admin can revoke, restrict, or temporarily suspend the access devices at any time. Adminsistrators can also modify users’ rights by granting or limiting access to specific groups.

Smartphone

Get granted access rights by the system admin and pre-authorize your smartphone via Ajax apps for contactless control of the keypad using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).

Passcode

The keypad supports several types of access passcodes:

Keypad code (one per keypad): a general code set up for the keypad.
Personal codes: individual access codes configured personally by each system user in their Ajax app.
Codes for unregistered users: codes created by an admin for cleaning personnel or real estate agents who don't have Ajax accounts. They use the keypad but have no access to the system info.
RRU code: the access code configured by an admin for the rapid response units (RRU) to access the premises after receiving an alarm when the owner is not home. The code is activated only after an alarm and is valid for a specified period.

Contactless access devices

Pass and Tag are equipped with original DESFire® chips and share the same functionality but in a different shape of enclosures. One Tag or Pass can control up to 13 security systems. Access devices are sold separately in batches of 3, 10, or 100 pieces.

The keypad has a panic button that triggers an alarm when pressed. The panic button can be configured to alert users about the alarm, activate sirens, or even run an automation scenario. If the user is forced to let in intruders, they can use a duress code to fake disarm: the keypad simulates regular disarming and immediately sends an alarm to the security company, notifying them about the emergency. Meanwhile, Ajax apps and sirens installed at the facility remain silent to prevent revealing a user.

Fibra

Unique wired technology

An Ajax system uses secure two-way communication based on Fibra proprietary protocol. It features encryption and device authentication to prevent sabotage, spoofing, and data theft. Fibra lines are versatile and support connecting different types of devices to one line: sirens, keypads, and detectors with photo verification.

Protection against sabotage and spoofing

Energy efficiency as a priority

Fibra communication requires minimum power consumption: the keypad consumes only up to 0.6 W at its peak. Fibra also follows the TDMA principle. Each device has a short time frame to exchange data with a hub, and its communication module is inactive the rest of the time. This significantly reduces power consumption and helps avoid interferences even when multiple devices communicate simultaneously.

Power consumption of up to 0.6 W

TDMA and power-saving modes

Advanced system supervision

The keypad is a part of the Ajax ecosystem, which makes it a genuine IoT device. Each element of the ecosystem is constantly supervised. The keypad exchanges data with a hub via Fibra protocol. The hub has two-way communication with Ajax Cloud which provides real-time information to Ajax apps. The Ajax system supervises device state every minute. If a keypad has an issue, you will receive a notification.

Instant maintenance notifications

Complex sabotage protection

Tamper alarm

The device enclosure has two tamper buttons to alert when the keypad is detached from the surface or removed from the mounting panel. Additionally, the keypad is secured with a holding screw at the bottom of the enclosure to enhance its resistance to any dismantling attempts.

Protection against code guessing

The system blocks the keypad after three unsuccessful attempts for a specified period and immediately notifies about the incident, effectively preventing unauthorized individuals from guessing the access code.

Protection against copying access devices

The keypad responds only to access devices authorized via Ajax apps. The DESFire® chips in cards and key fobs comply with the ISO 14443 international standard and combine comprehensive 128-bit encryption and copy protection. The BLE reader simply does not react on a smartphone if it's not authorized via Ajax apps.

Durable enclosure

The keypad has IP66 protection and withstands temperatures from −13 °F to 140 °F. It works fine in rain and snow. Mechanical buttons are not fading, so it’s impossible to figure out the most used digits and determine the code. The enclosure meets the requirements of the IK08 impact protection class and stays solid even if it was hit or physically damaged.

Device authentication against spoofing

The hub checks the device's unique parameters for authentication during each communication session. If any parameter fails the check, the hub ignores commands from the device.

Communication failure detection

The device regularly exchanges data with the hub. With maximum ping interval settings available (3 data packages once in 12 seconds), it takes only 36 seconds to identify communication loss and notify the security company and users about the incident.

Protection against short circuit

The system instantly detects a short circuit on the line and notifies the security company and the users. And when the problem is fixed, there is no need to replace the fuses: the system will restore operation automatically.

Data encryption

All data the system stores and transmits is protected by a block cipher with a dynamic key. Encryption makes it extremely difficult to reprogram the device, replace or steal the data.

Informative push notifications

The Ajax system instantly notifies about alarms and events: a security company and users know exactly which device triggered, when and where it happened.

Regular polling

The device regularly exchanges data with the hub. The system controls each device state and reports if there is a malfunction or connection loss.
