It uses a SIM card in the intercom to place and receive calls like a mobile phone. When the visitor presses the call button, the intercom system dials a pre-programmed phone number (mobile phone or landline).
Benefits include:
- No need to wire between the gate and office.
- Anywhere there is cellular service, it will work.
- Calls can be made to multiple phone numbers in sequence or all at the same time.
- Remote control access (push keypad code or phone key to open gate, etc. ).
Typical applications:
- Gate and driveway entry.
- Remote or temporary work sites.
- Parking lots and storage areas.
- Off grid properties in rural areas.
Cell Phone Intercom FAQs
A: The cellular version has a built-in 4G router and does not require an external one. It is powered by a 24V DC supply that must be plugged into an outlet. It can run on a solar-powered gate system if it provides 24V (two 12V batteries), such as the 24-volt 30-watt solar panel kit.
A: The most current pricing is available via the link in the product description: https://www.intercomsonline.com/cell-phone-network-intercom-cellular-plan.
A: The IO1057 is recommended. It is a modular cellular apartment intercom that can be expanded by adding two 3-button modules and a 3-module housing.
A: A video cell intercom, such as the IO1052 or IO1125, can be used, but they require separate cell service. Alternatively, if running CAT5 cable (up to 326 feet) is possible, the offers video calls to phones without monthly fees. It works with iOS, Android, and optional in-home screens or tablets, and can control a gate opener via two wired connections. Multiple users can access it through the app on any WiFi or cellular network.
A: A cellular intercom, such as the video cell phone intercom with keypad, is recommended. The IO1052 It connects to the gate controller via two wires and requires a cell line at the gate. A data plan is needed for video. Gate status feedback can be added with an additional switch.
A: Google Home integration for IO1125 and IO1123 only reports incoming calls and allows one-way communication to the intercom. Google restrictions prevent full two-way audio and relay control, and no intercoms currently bypass these limitations.
Q: Does Part Number IO1115 work with Canadian SIM cards, and can a ZT1035 GSM intercom be adapted to fit into it?
A: Yes, IO1115 works with Canadian SIM cards. A ZT1035 GSM intercom can be adapted to fit using custom plates, which are not included in the price. Pricing for plates requires a quote from manufacturing, and inquiries should be sent to [email protected].
Q: Can the Video Cell Phone Intercom with Keypad connect to a laptop or TV?
A: No, it cannot connect to a laptop or TV. It has no interface for direct connection and only supports SD card recording.
Q: Is there a 5G version of the cell gate intercom with keypad, and will current models become outdated soon?
A: No 5G models are available yet, but current intercoms have upgradable boards and software, so they will not quickly become outdated. 5G is not necessary for these systems.
Q: What are the cellular service rates for the IO1038 intercom system?
A: The service rates for the IO1038 can be found through a link provided on the product page: https://www.intercomsonline.com/cell-phone-network-intercom-cellular-plan
Q: Can a malfunctioning landline intercom be replaced with a cell phone-based system, and what are the installation details?
A: Yes,
a cell phone intercom can replace a landline system. The keypad
operates independently of the intercom, so the landline can be canceled
anytime. A cellular intercom allows any phone number to be programmed
and includes a SIM card. Installation involves connecting an included
AC/DC transformer, wiring to the electric door strike, activating the
SIM card, and programming phone numbers. Models like the IO1057 offer one button per apartment, multiple access codes for different users, and straightforward setup.
A: The IO1111 cellular-based system is recommended for its ease and speed of installation.

A: The recommended solution is a cellular-based multi-tenant intercom, requiring a monthly fee for cell service, which avoids rewiring costs that could reach thousands. Two main options exist: a larger button-per-unit model and a smaller directory-based model with keypad and proximity reader capabilities. Both allow tenants to receive calls on regular phones (including flip phones) without using an app. The keypad enables PIN code entry for access, though it may not support letter-number apartment identifiers. Installation involves mounting the unit, attaching the antenna, wiring to the door strike, and programming via app.

A: The IO1057 cellular intercom with individual buttons is a good option, though it still requires wiring to the gate opener. Wireless relays from companies like BWI Eagle may eliminate the need for underground cables. Custom-built units like the IO1057 take 3–4 weeks to build. If you need something faster, a directory-based model like the IO1111 are available in stock.
Q: Can the Video Cell Phone Intercom with Keypad connect to a laptop or TV?
A: No, it cannot connect to a laptop or TV. It has no interface for direct connection and only supports SD card recording.

Q: What is the difference between the AE1006 and IO1111 intercom models, and do they work with T-Mobile?
A: The
AE1006 and IO1111 mainly differ in appearance. The AE1006 is in stock,
while the IO1111 is built to order. Both work with T-Mobile or AT&T
cellular service, or any GSM-based carrier. The directory feature cannot
be hidden, and a directory must be programmed for the system to
function properly.

A: Yes, the IO1111 includes a built-in door buzzer relay. It is sometimes in stock or the lead time is about 4 weeks since it is built in the UK, which includes shipping time. An alternative model, the AE1006, is usually always in stock. Programming is straightforward and can be done via an app on your phone.
Q: What intercom solution works
for a 9-unit HOA on a gated street wanting to move away from landlines
and damaged underground cables?
A: The IO1057 cellular
intercom with individual buttons is a good option, though it still
requires wiring to the gate opener. Wireless relays from companies like BWI Eagle
may eliminate the need for underground cables. Custom-built units like

A: The IO1111 cellular-based system is recommended for its ease and speed of installation.
A: Yes, the IO1040 and the IO1038 can be wall-mounted. It provides duplex audio similar to a telephone and can be used to unlock a door.
A: To transfer calls to a cell phone without a landline, a cellular intercom with service and a monthly fee is required, such as the IO1115 Cell Phone Network Intercom, which works on GSM-based networks worldwide, including Canada.
A: Video cellular gate intercoms with keypads are available that meet these requirements. A pedestal with dual mounts can be provided to support both the main keypad intercom and an additional call button unit.
A: Yes, delivery is available to Canada except for MURS intercoms. A SIM card is required for GSM models, but they do work with all Canadian carriers. The IO1115 One-Button Cell Intercom Gate Pedestal or Wall Mount kit is an option, but it uses the same manual as the Modular Cell Intercom and has no separate manual.
Q: How can I get help activating my SIM card?
A: Contact AES directly for SIM activation assistance, as they provide the service.
Q: Does the replacement intercom cell or wifi board have a warranty if the previous one corroded within a year?
A: The boards, such as those
from AES, generally come with a one-year warranty. Corrosion should not
normally occur, so warranty coverage should be verified directly with
AES.
Q: What system allows a gate to
open based on a keypad call using only an internet connection, and does
it require monthly service fees?
A: The IO1123 or IO1094 Wi-Fi
or CAT-5 Video System with Keypad allows gate control via smartphone
app through an internet connection. There are no monthly service fees
for using these systems or the associated app.
Q: How can a customer specify
custom text for the “1 Button Emergency Cell Intercom Callpoint,” and
what are the available options and lead times?
A: Custom
text, such as “Push for Help,” can be specified for the blue version,
but it requires 4–6 weeks manufacturing time. The black IO1115 model
is typically in stock but does not allow customization, though users
can add their own label. The black version supports non-Verizon SIM
cards such as AT&T. For quotes, customers can select the “Quote”
payment method at checkout to receive an invoice including shipping and
tax-exempt status if applicable.
