Linear EP-436 Telephone Entry & Access Control System

Browser-Managed Scalable Access Control System for Multi-Door Sites The Linear EP-436 EntryPro is a networked telephone entry and access control system designed for properties that need centralized control across multiple doors, gates, readers, and credential types. Built for multi-tenant residential communities, commercial buildings, gated facilities, and HOA-controlled entrances, the EP-436 gives administrators a browser-managed platform for managing residents, personnel access, entry credentials, event history, and site reporting without requiring a dedicated PC or installed software. The EP-436 supports up to 36 doors out of the box and is designed for scalable access control using expansion modules and license upgrades. Its embedded web interface allows authorized users to manage cardholders, schedules, access levels, event actions, reports, and system settings from a supported browser. With a 4.3-inch full-color display, improved two-way audio, optional internally mounted RFID reader, optional HD IP camera support, built-in TTY port, and weather-resistant housing, the EP-436 is built for entry points where visitor communication, credential access, and access-event visibility all matter.
