Linear 2520-053 Two-Station Intercom Kit with Stand
The Linear 2520-053 two-station intercom kit is a complete hardwired entry communication package for a gate or controlled entrance. It gives the site one master indoor station and one outdoor call station so a visitor at the gate can call inside before access is granted. The kit also includes a 12-volt power supply and a gooseneck stand, making it useful where the outdoor station needs to be positioned near a vehicle lane instead of mounted directly to a wall or column. This type of system is commonly used at small commercial properties, residential gates, service entrances, and guard/office access points. Correct selection depends on the communication distance, wire type, station count, power supply, and whether the gate release button will interface with the operator or a separate locking device. It should not be substituted for wireless intercoms, cellular entry units, or keypad-only stations without reviewing the complete access-control layout.

Technician Note
Intercom and keypad stations should be matched to the existing system wiring and station count. Confirm whether the site needs a complete kit, an outdoor station, a substation with keypad, or separate mounting hardware.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the manufacturer part number on the existing part or parts diagram.
- Compare the product function, mounting style, wiring, and included components to the current installation.
- Do not assume similar-looking Linear, OSCO, or Linear PRO Access parts are interchangeable.
- Confirm station count, master/substation compatibility, power supply, and cable distance.
- Check whether a gooseneck stand, enclosure, or separate keypad/card reader is required.
Professional Advisory
For access-control and intercom equipment, verify wiring, power, controller compatibility, and mounting before installation. A qualified technician should be used when the existing system condition is uncertain.
Product Q&A
What comes with the 2520-053 kit?
Published Linear information lists one master station, one outdoor station, a 12V power supply, and one gooseneck stand.
Is this a complete intercom system?
Yes, it is a complete two-station intercom kit, but the gate operator or lock release wiring still needs to be connected correctly.
How far can the stations communicate?
Linear references up to 1500 ft. for this system when properly wired. Actual performance depends on wire type, routing, and installation conditions.
Can additional stations be added?
Some descriptions note expandable station support, but the system layout and compatible station models should be checked before adding stations.
Is this a cellular entry system?
No. This is a hardwired two-station intercom kit, not a cellular telephone entry system.
