Visitor communication & entrance systems
Intercom Systems
A video intercom lets you see and speak to visitors at an entrance. Browse Hikvision, Dahua and HiLook intercom kits, individual door stations, indoor monitors and dedicated accessories for Australian homes and businesses. Start with a kit for a new system, or choose components that match your existing installation.
Intercom Systems buying guide
Choose the right intercom system
For a new house or villa installation, an intercom kit brings the main components together. For an extension or repair, match the existing system before choosing a door station or indoor monitor. Mounts, modules, distributors and power supplies are in intercom accessories.
IP, two-wire or analogue?
- IP intercom: network-connected equipment. PoE support depends on the model; verify both the equipment and the power source.
- Two-wire intercom: a system family that can suit some cable-reuse projects. Check the exact generation, distributor, power supply and permitted cable layout.
- Analogue intercom: equipment designed for a matching analogue system. An analogue monitor is not a direct substitute for an IP screen.
Start with the job, then choose the model
Count entrances and answering points. Check the available cabling, surface or flush mounting, whether you need mobile answering, and whether a connected door lock or gate must be released. A shared brand name or connector does not establish compatibility between different product generations.
Our kit range includes DS-KIS602, DS-KIS603-P, KTP01L-AUS-S2 and HA-KIT-IP2. Compare the inclusions on each product page: a switch, mounting part or power adapter included with one kit may be separate in another.
Intercom and alarm systems have different jobs
An intercom handles visitor communication and supported entrance control. An intrusion alarm uses sensors and sounders to detect and signal alarm events. Some devices have additional alarm inputs or audio functions; these features do not make the two systems interchangeable.
Need help checking a system?
Use the exact product listings and manufacturer installation documents for compatibility. Contact Smarket with the model numbers you plan to connect. Check shipping information and the return policy before ordering.
Frequently asked questions
What do I need for a video intercom system?
Typically you need a compatible door station, an answering device such as an indoor monitor, the required power and network or distributor equipment, and suitable cabling. Door-release operation also needs compatible lock or gate hardware. Check the exact kit inclusions and installation requirements.
Can I mix Hikvision and Dahua intercom components?
Do not assume components are interchangeable. Match the manufacturer, product family, wiring system and firmware requirements. Cross-brand or third-party integration needs explicit support for the exact models and functions.
Does Wi-Fi mean an intercom is completely wireless?
No. Wi-Fi describes a supported network connection. A device still needs the power arrangement specified for that model, and other parts of the system may use network or two-wire cabling.
Can an intercom open a gate or door?
Some models support door-release outputs. The lock or gate controller, relay rating, power supply and wiring must be compatible. Check these requirements before ordering; a door station alone is not a complete powered locking system.
