iDG 4G intercoms allow you to speak to visitors at your property no matter where you are in the world. Using the latest VoLTE 4G audio codecs the audio quality of the calls is superb.
When connected to an electric gate or door, simply pressing a key on your phone during the call grants access to your visitor. You can additionally add up to 1000 phone numbers to the intercom for dial-to-open access control.
Keypad units offer a fully remotely configurable keypad access control solution programmed by SMS or online.
Unlike our competitor's 4G intercoms, our unit has fully tested and working VoLTE on UK and Ireland networks. You can see your network's VoLTE status at any time by sending 'network status'. Come 2026, when the analogue phone network is switched off you will need a VoLTE 4G intercom. Just 4G alone will not be good enough!
What is VoLTE?
At the end of 2025 the analogue phone networks will be shutdown in Europe including the UK. 2G may still be around for data but the voice and SMS capability will certainly be gone. That is the reason you'll need a 4G intercom then.
The replacement on 4G is the IP Multimedia System (IMS) with Voice over LTE (VoLTE). Even now some UK networks (mostly O2) have not fully implemented this. One network that has is EE. Many current '4G' intercoms on the market will not work correctly on EE because EE primarily uses VoLTE and frequently will not revert back to 2G or 3G.
We're pleased to say our 4G intercom has been fully tested to work with VoLTE on EE and 3 networks. VoLTE is also available in Vodafone native networks but does not operate on their MVNO networks like ASDA.
You will know you're making a VoLTE call on our intercoms because the dial tone is different.
To check out if your SIM and network is VoLTE capable send the 'Network Status' command:
