The AES MOD-PRIME-PX-KP is an assembled Prime keypad and 125 kHz proximity module for select AES Global Prime Edge and modular access-control systems. It combines keypad entry and prox credential reading in one module, giving compatible AES installations a single accessory for PIN-code access and proximity-card or fob access.
This module is commonly described as a combined prox and keypad module for the AES CellcomPrime / modular range. It should be selected by part number, system series, panel layout, credential frequency, and wiring requirements. Do not treat it as a complete intercom or full access-control system by itself.
The MOD-PRIME-PX-KP adds keypad and proximity-reader functionality to compatible AES modular access systems. Depending on the AES system and site programming, users may be able to enter a PIN code, present a compatible 125 kHz prox card or fob, or use the module as part of a controlled gate, door, or building-entry setup.
The module is typically used with an AES modular intercom or access-control panel where the main system handles call functions, control logic, relay operation, user management, and release commands. The keypad/prox module is one part of that larger system.
This keypad and prox module may be used with the following applications where the current AES documentation, panel layout, or installer plan confirms fitment:
Important: Do not assume this module works with every AES intercom, every Prime unit, or every access-control panel. Confirm the exact AES system, module bay, wiring connection, software/app support, credential type, and panel layout before ordering.
The provided product description identifies this as a 125 kHz prox module. That frequency matters. A 125 kHz prox reader is not the same as a 13.56 MHz smart-card reader, MIFARE reader, DESFire reader, Bluetooth credential reader, or mobile-credential reader.
If a site already has existing cards or fobs, confirm the credential technology before ordering. Matching the frequency alone may not guarantee compatibility if the credential format, facility code, card number format, or AES programming requirements do not match the system.
AES modular parts can look similar from the front of the panel. Keypad-only modules, prox-only modules, combined keypad/prox modules, speaker modules, call-button modules, and blank modules serve different functions and should not be substituted without checking the AES parts documentation.
| Part / Component | Common Description | Interchangeability Note |
|---|---|---|
| MOD-PRIME-PX-KP | Combined Prime keypad and 125 kHz prox module | Use where the AES Prime / modular system calls for the assembled keypad and prox module |
| MOD-PRIME-KP | Prime keypad module | Keypad-only module; not the same as the combined keypad/prox version |
| MOD-PRIME-PX | Prime 125 kHz prox module | Prox-only module; not the same as the combined keypad/prox version |
| MOD-MULTI-PX-KP | Combined prox and keypad module for other AES modular configurations | Related combined module, but not automatically interchangeable with the Prime version |
| Prime Edge intercom / controller | Main access-control or intercom head unit | The MOD-PRIME-PX-KP is an accessory module, not the complete Prime Edge system |
The AES MOD-PRIME-PX-KP should be ordered only when the AES system and panel layout call for the combined Prime keypad and 125 kHz prox module. If the job only needs keypad entry, a keypad-only module may be more appropriate. If the job only needs card/fob access, a prox-only module may be the correct module instead.
For replacement work, match the part number on the existing module when possible. If the site uses existing prox credentials, confirm the credential frequency and format before ordering. A 125 kHz reader will not read 13.56 MHz smart credentials unless the manufacturer specifically supports that credential technology.

Before replacing or adding the MOD-PRIME-PX-KP, confirm how the AES system is supposed to manage users. Some sites need keypad PIN entry, some need prox card/fob access, and some need both. The module should match the access method the property actually uses.
Do not overlook credential compatibility. A 125 kHz prox module is not the same as a smart-card reader. If the customer already has credentials, test or verify the card technology before ordering the module. If the system is being upgraded for better credential security, confirm whether the AES platform supports the desired reader technology.
The AES MOD-PRIME-PX-KP should be installed by a qualified access-control or gate technician familiar with AES Prime Edge / modular systems, low-voltage wiring, credential programming, gate operator inputs, door release circuits, and site security requirements.
For gated communities, commercial properties, and building entry systems, confirm the access sequence before putting the system into service. PIN entry, prox access, postal access, fire access, resident access, visitor calling, and gate or door release functions should all be tested without bypassing required safety or security devices.
The AES MOD-PRIME-PX-KP is an assembled combined keypad and 125 kHz proximity module for select AES Prime Edge / CellcomPrime modular access-control systems.
Yes. MOD-PRIME-PX-KP combines keypad entry and proximity-reader access in one module for compatible AES modular systems.
No. MOD-PRIME-PX-KP is an accessory module. It does not replace the main AES intercom, controller, speaker module, relay equipment, enclosure, or access-control programming.
The provided product description identifies this as a 125 kHz prox module. Existing cards or fobs should be verified for frequency and format before ordering.
No. MOD-PRIME-KP is a keypad-only module. MOD-PRIME-PX-KP is the combined keypad and prox module.
No. MOD-PRIME-PX is the prox-only module. MOD-PRIME-PX-KP combines the prox reader and keypad in one module.
Yes. Installation may involve AES module wiring, panel fitment, credential setup, keypad programming, relay testing, and gate or door release verification, so it should be handled by a qualified access-control or gate technician.
