Installing Amazon One device I/O Hub for secure access - Amazon One

The Amazon One device with I/O Hub is an integral part of the Amazon One Enterprise system, designed to enhance security and streamline access control for a variety of environments. The device leverages biometric palm recognition to provide secure, touchless authentication for users, making it ideal for use in high-security areas such as office buildings, restricted entry points, or facilities requiring seamless access management. The I/O Hub acts as a bridge between the device and your existing security infrastructure, enabling communication with door locks, alarms, and other access control systems.

This section provides the location requirements and step-by-step instructions for installing the Amazon One device with I/O Hub. Proper preparation and installation are key to ensuring the system operates securely and efficiently, providing users with a smooth, reliable experience.

Prerequisites and preparation for installing the Amazon One Device with I/O Hub

Before starting the installation, ensure the following conditions are met to ensure a safe, secure, and effective setup:

  • Indoor use only: The Amazon One device with I/O Hub is designed for indoor use only. Ensure it is installed in an appropriate environment.

  • Power Over Ethernet (PoE++): If using Power Over Ethernet (PoE++), verify that an IEEE 802.3bt (Type 3) Class 6 PoE++ switch (end span) or injector (midspan) is available. The PoE++ source must be listed or certified and comply with IEC 62368-1 standards. Importantly, the PoE++ source must be located within the same building as the device. Only use an approved PoE++ source with the AOE device.

  • 15V DC power input: If you are using 15V DC power input, ensure that only an NEC Class 2 or power-limited, approved power supply is used. The power supply must be listed or certified for safety. For further details, refer to the Optional DC section below.

Required tools

  • Wire stripper

  • #2 Phillips screwdriver

  • 0.5mm x 2mm flathead screwdriver

Included with the Amazon One device with I/O Hub

  • 2x 6 position terminal block connectors

  • DC plug connector

  • 72" power/data cable

Once these prerequisites are confirmed, you can proceed with the installation process, ensuring a secure and efficient setup of your Amazon One device with I/O Hub. Proper preparation will help guarantee the device functions as intended and integrates smoothly into your secure access system.

To install the I/O hub for your Amazon One device
  1. Remove your Amazon One device with I/O Hub from the packaging.

  2. Secure the I/O hub in the desired location.

  3. Plug in the Amazon One USB cable into the I/O hub port.
