2N IP Base — Compact 1- or 2-Button HD IP Video Intercom for Chicago

2N IP Base — Compact HD IP Video Intercom

The 2N IP Base is the compact, cost-effective IP video intercom — simple and fast installation, 1 or 2 backlit buttons, HD camera, PoE 802.3af or 12 V DC powered. It covers the jobs that don’t need the modular Verso platform — a house, a small office, a staff door — and still gets you 2N build quality with phone answering.

What’s Confirmed by the Official 2N Spec

These specifications come from 2N (2n.com) published IP Base product pages:

• Camera: HD 1280 × 960; 135° horizontal × 109° vertical viewing angle; no night vision
• Audio: built-in microphone; 2 W / 8 Ω speaker; 78 dB sound pressure at 1 KHz at 1 m
• Audio codecs: G.711, G.722, G.729
• Video codecs: H.263, H.263+, H.264 (VoIP calls only), MJPEG (HTTP streaming)
• Power: PoE 802.3af LAN connector with active switch output 8–12 V; PoE 10 V (adapter: source voltage minus 2 V, max 400 mA); optional external 12 V / 2 A DC
• Buttons: transparent plastic backlit buttons; 1 or 2 button configurations
• Tamper: built-in tamper switch

When IP Base Fits — Compact Cost-Effective Entry

Pick the 2N IP Base when:

• The entry needs 1 or 2 buttons (single-tenant home, small office, secondary door)
• PoE 802.3af is available (no separate power needed)
• Night vision is not required (well-lit entries, indoor placement)
• The deployment is cost-conscious but the customer wants a 2N IP intercom
• The site benefits from a built-in tamper switch for security event reporting

For modular multi-tenant flagship, step up to the 2N IP Verso 2.0. For tough outdoor IP69 / IK10, see the 2N IP Force 2.0. For premium residential single-family with Adaptive Face Zooming, see the 2N IP One. For minimalist single-button hidden-camera design, see the 2N IP Solo.
