Nortek Security & Control (NSC) today debuted the new Linear 7” e3 Entry System to the AV market. Equipped with a large touchscreen and keypad, the new offering is now on display at InfoComm 2018 in the Las Vegas Convention Center in Booth #C2612.

“The browser-based Linear e3 Entry System is designed for a new generation of customers and end- users who want modern telephone entry and cutting-edge physical access control systems for multi-dwelling/tenant buildings and gated communities,” NSC vice president of integrated systems John LaFond says.

“The new Linear 7” e3 Entry simplifies the end-user experience with a touch screen and full query keyboard, which minimize the number of steps. Installers save time with an easy-to-install solution that’s equipped with an intuitive installation wizard and one common database and programming interface to configure.”

Linear e3’s new 7’’ weatherproof product features a larger touchscreen display with a self-adjusting sensor, making it easy-to-read during the day and at night, as well as in rain, sleet and snow.

The display is paired with a stainless-steel keypad featuring recessed illuminated blue keys, and a polycarbonate home key with white illuminated backlighting.

Equipped with a motion sensor, ambient light sensor, and optional HD IP camera, the new offering includes a built-in postal lock and 3-point locking mechanism for added security. For noise reduction and voice clarity, the 7” e3 Entry also features digital signal processing.

For added durability, the product’s new faceplate is engineered with Linear ArmorTech polycarbonate and stainless steel. Polycarbonate makes it light and easy to install for dealers, optimizing the RF transmission while also providing added durability against force and harsh weather elements.
