Description
ico-plus ico-minus
The Verkada AC12 is a cloud-managed one-door access control unit designed for IT and physical security teams that need to bring standalone doors under centralized electronic management without costly infrastructure overhauls. Powered by a single PoE cable — supporting IEEE 802.3af/at/bt — the AC12 eliminates the need for dedicated low-voltage cable runs or server hardware, making it well suited for corporate offices, healthcare facilities, education campuses, and multi-site commercial environments. Its compact, low-profile form factor (175.5 mm × 55.3 mm × 175.4 mm) installs easily in tight spaces, while onboard storage and processing keep the door operational even during network or power interruptions. Administrators manage the system remotely through Verkada Command, and the unit ships with a 10-year warranty for long-term investment confidence.

FAQs

How is the Verkada AC12 one-door controller powered, and what PoE standards does it support?
The AC12 accepts IEEE 802.3af/at/bt PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ input (37VDC to 57VDC, 600mA maximum per pair) or a 12VDC supply with a minimum of 2.5A current, so a single PoE cable from a compatible switch or injector is all that is needed for installation.
What reader types and credential methods does the Verkada AC12 support?
The AC12 provides two reader ports, each delivering 12VDC at up to 250mA, and supports any combination of Verkada and third-party readers via RS-485 or Wiegand interfaces for native in/out badging. End users can authenticate with printed cards or the Verkada Pass mobile Bluetooth application.
Can the Verkada AC12 power a security camera or other PoE peripheral at the door?
Yes, the AC12 includes PoE passthrough that delivers up to 30W (when the controller is powered by PoE+) or up to 27W output to a connected PoE+ peripheral such as a Verkada camera. When powered by PoE++, the passthrough output rises to up to 30W for a PoE+ device.
What happens to door access if the Verkada AC12 loses its internet connection or power?
The AC12 has onboard storage and processing that allow it to continue operating even when it has lost its internet connection; the datasheet also notes the device operates during outages, though specific details on battery backup are not provided in the source data.
What certifications and compliance standards does the Verkada AC12 carry, and where is it available?
The AC12 holds FCC Part 15B Class B, ICES-003 Class B, CE, UKCA, VCCI, RCM, UL 294, CAN-ULC 60839-11-1, UL 62368-1, CSA C22.2 No. 62368-1, and IK06 ratings, and is available in the USA, Canada, UK, and EU. It is rated for indoor use only in controlled, protected, or restricted-access areas.
What warranty and software licensing are required to operate the Verkada AC12?
The AC12 hardware comes with a 10-year warranty. A separate cloud door license is required to operate the controller through Verkada Command, available in 1-year, 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year terms for both new capacity and renewals.
