Aiphone LE-DA — LE Series Analog Audio Door Station
The Aiphone LE-DA is the LE-Series analog audio door station — flush-mount in a 2-gang back box (or surface with the SBX-2G/A adapter), hands-free communication when the master station answers, IP33 weather rating. Pairs with the LEF Series (LEF-3L, LEF-5, LEF-10S) and LEM Series (LEM-1DL) master stations. Three shielded conductors to a shop’s back door and a master station at the counter still beat an IP system on price by a wide margin.
