Aiphone AX-A – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the Aiphone AX-A and AX-AN sub station?
Both are interior sub stations for the Aiphone AX system, and both are surface mount. The AX-AN adds the Privacy feature: with the Privacy button engaged, a master station cannot hear audio from that sub location. If you're putting a station in an office, exam room, dorm room, or anywhere an occupant expects not to be monitored, order the AN version. For a lobby desk or back-of-house point where monitoring is fine, the AX-A is the one.
2) What wire do I need to run for an Aiphone AX sub station?
Cat-5e or 2-conductor, with a run distance up to 980 feet. Cat-5e is the typical choice on new AX installs, and the 2-conductor option is what lets you reuse existing intercom cable in a retrofit rather than pulling new wire through a finished building.
3) Will the Aiphone AX-A work with an intercom system other than the AX?
No. The AX-A and AX-AN are built for the Aiphone AX system specifically. If your building runs a different Aiphone platform or another manufacturer's intercom, these sub stations are not the part to order for it.
4) Can the Aiphone AX-A sub station be mounted on a desk instead of a wall?
Yes. The AX-A and AX-AN can sit on a desk or table top, mount flat to the wall surface, or mount to a single gang box. That covers a receptionist who wants it on the counter and a corridor station that has to be fixed to the wall, without ordering a different part.
5) Does the AX-A sub station have its own call buttons and handset, or is it hands-free?
Hands-free. Once the master station answers, the conversation is hands-free at the sub location, so nothing has to be picked up or held. It is a sub station, not a master, meaning it works as a talk point on the AX system and does not initiate control of the system itself.
6) Do I need a back box to install an Aiphone AX indoor sub station?
Not necessarily. These mount directly to the wall surface, so no recessed box is required. If you already have a single gang box at the location, the station mounts to it. That flexibility matters on retrofits where you'd otherwise be cutting drywall to set a box.
7) Is the AX-A sub station tough enough for a commercial building, and what color is it?
It is rated for commercial use and the housing is sturdy ABS plastic in white. White ABS matches standard device plates on most commercial walls, so a run of these across multiple floors looks consistent with the switches and outlets already in place.
8) Where can I get the installation instructions for the Aiphone AX-A/AN?
Aiphone publishes installation instructions for this station as a PDF, hosted at zensupply.com/content/pdf/aiphone/instructions.pdf. Worth pulling before you pull wire, since it confirms terminal assignments for the Cat-5e or 2-conductor run.
