The AF64 is Verkada's all-in-one access station for a single opening. It combines a door controller, multi-technology credential reader, 5.5-inch touchscreen, and 5MP wide-angle camera. Supported entry methods include keycards, mobile NFC, Bluetooth, PIN, and Face Unlock. Face matching and liveness checks are processed locally on the device using 3D and infrared sensing; administrators control enrollment and deletion through Verkada's tools.
Installation decisions still matter even though the functions share one enclosure. The AF64 uses PoE+, connects by Ethernet, and can mount on a wall, single-gang box, or mullion with the appropriate hardware. Its IP65 and IK06 ratings help determine whether a proposed doorway falls within the published environmental and impact limits. It can operate as its own controller or connect as a reader to a Verkada access controller, so the existing door hardware and system design need to be confirmed before quoting.
HTS will scope the credential policy, mounting arrangement, PoE+ budget, lock and request-to-exit wiring, and required license. Face Unlock may also be subject to customer policy or local restrictions, so it should be treated as an explicit design choice rather than assumed for every site. The quote should include the station and any angle, mullion, relay, cabling, or installation items required for the actual opening.
How HTS deploys it
The AF64 is a single-opening decision, so HTS scopes it as a door, not a device: credential policy first (card, mobile NFC, Bluetooth, PIN, Face Unlock, or a combination), then the mounting arrangement (wall, single-gang, mullion, or angled), then the wiring behind the opening — electric strike or maglock, request-to-exit, door position, and any security relay. The station needs PoE+ (802.3at), and the budget is confirmed before the order.
The AF64 can act as its own one-door controller or as a reader on a Verkada access controller; the right answer depends on how the rest of the site is built, and it is cheaper to decide before the quote than after the install. Face Unlock is treated as an explicit design choice — a policy decision as much as a technical one — and customer policy and local rules are confirmed before enabling it. The station arrives pre-configured to the site design, and turn-up ends with the receiving workflow tested: who the call goes to and who can let people in.
