The Select Entry Systems ALXCPUS is the call processing unit for the SES Alliance Voice Processor no-phone-bill access control system. It is designed for multi-tenant buildings and controlled entrances where visitors need to communicate with residents through the building's existing inside telephone wiring without requiring a separate outside business telephone line for the entry system.
This ALXCPUS package includes one ALXLEP Line Expansion Panel. The expansion panel is designed to hold up to 8 ALXLC line cards. The ALXLC line cards are sold separately unless the current supplier package specifically states otherwise. Confirm the number of apartments, offices, extensions, entrances, and line cards required before ordering.
The ALXCPUS acts as the central call processing module for an Alliance no-phone-bill access control system. It works with compatible SES entrance control equipment and the building's internal telephone wiring so a visitor at a controlled entrance can call a resident. The resident hears a distinctive double-ring style entrance call and may release the entrance by dialing the programmed access tone, commonly 6.
The ALXCPUS is a dedicated component for Select Entry Systems / Select Engineered Systems Alliance Voice Processor no-phone-bill access control systems. It should be used only where the complete system design matches the Alliance telephone-switched architecture.
The ALXCPUS is not a standalone telephone entry panel, keypad, line card, cellular module, or gate operator controller. It is the call processing unit used as part of a larger Alliance Voice Processor system. The entrance station, line cards, line expansion panels, interface blocks, cables, transformers, door strikes, relays, directories, card access equipment, and programming options must be matched to the job.
Do not confuse ALXCPUS with ALXCPUSLT. The ALXCPUS is the expandable version that includes one ALXLEP expansion panel capable of holding 8 ALXLC line cards and can be expanded with additional line expansion panels. The ALXCPUSLT is the limited version that holds 4 ALXLC line cards and has no expansion capability. Confirm the required suite count and future expansion requirements before ordering.

The ALXCPUS is usually sold into larger multi-tenant jobs, not simple residential gate repairs. The important checks are suite count, entrance count, line-card count, expansion-panel count, inside telephone wiring condition, and which SES entrance panels are already on site. Do not quote it like a plug-in keypad or a simple cellular call box.
The ALXCPUS should be installed and serviced by a qualified telephone entry, access control, low-voltage, or building systems technician familiar with SES Alliance wiring. Do not connect the call processing unit directly to high-voltage lock or gate motor circuits. Electric strikes, maglocks, door operators, and gate operators may require separate power supplies, isolation, relays, and code-compliant release hardware.
For South Florida customers, Gate Openers Unlimited may be able to assist with availability and Hialeah Gardens local pickup when appropriate. For condominiums, apartments, dormitories, and large commercial properties, confirm the full system design before ordering individual Alliance components.
Alliance Voice Processor systems involve building telephone wiring, access control wiring, relay outputs, entrance panels, and life-safety considerations. If the site has unknown telephone wiring, intermittent audio, lightning damage, failed line cards, door release trouble, unsafe lock wiring, fire access concerns, or unclear system design, have the system checked by a qualified SES access control technician before replacing major components.
