Description
The CellGate Watchman W462 Multi-Family Video Intercom – VPN Internet Required is a cloud-based multi-family video intercom and access control system designed for apartment complexes, gated communities, commercial properties, mixed-use developments, storage facilities, and controlled pedestrian entry applications requiring secure VPN internet communication, live streaming video verification, and advanced cloud-based visitor management.
Featuring a sleek low-profile design with a brilliant 7.5-inch color touchscreen display, the Watchman W462 combines professional-grade telephone entry functionality, remote access management, live video communication, and cloud-based administration into a modern and scalable property access solution. Designed for both residential and commercial environments, the W462 provides secure visitor communication and remote gate or door control through the CellGate App and TrueCloud Connect™ platform.
Operating through a hardwired internet connection utilizing a streamlined one-step VPN configuration, the Watchman W462 delivers secure and reliable cloud-based communication without requiring traditional telephone lines or LTE cellular service. The VPN-based architecture provides simplified deployment while maintaining secure communication between the entry system and the TrueCloud Connect™ management platform hosted on Microsoft Azure.
The integrated live streaming camera allows residents and designated users to visually verify visitors before granting access, while built-in photo capture functionality records access attempts and visitor activity for improved perimeter awareness and property security. Real-time notifications with visitor photos can be delivered through text or email, helping property managers and residents monitor entry activity and respond quickly to gate events.
The Watchman W462 supports up to 1,500 directory listings, up to 10,000 local access codes, and up to 64,000 non-local access codes, making it ideal for both small and large multi-family access control applications. Residents and administrators can also issue QR code or PIN-code Visitor Passes directly from the CellGate App or TrueCloud Connect™ portal for temporary, recurring, or one-time visitor access management.
Additional functionality includes a built-in HID card reader, one Wiegand 26-bit input for integration with card readers, keypads, wireless remotes, or pedestrian gate systems, as well as remote gate management, scheduled openings and closures, cloud-based access event history, and advanced visitor credential management capabilities.
Managed through the Microsoft Azure-hosted TrueCloud Connect™ platform, the Watchman W462 delivers professional-grade cloud administration, centralized property management, and scalable multi-location control for modern residential and commercial access control applications.
