security of this product and accepts no liability for
any security risk attendant to a specific installation.
1 The Door Station - Exterior ships standard with
security screws. Dealers are encouraged to
use these screws, or even substitute alternate
security screws per the Dealer’s or customer’s
preference. Screw size is metric M3.5x.6-30L.
2 Security gates or automatic doors should not
be connected to the relay in the Door Station
if mounted in an unsecured area; such relays
could be accessed in the event of a breach of
the device. Secure relay-driven devices should
be connected to a more secure relay controller
mounted behind a secure wall.
3 Security devices, for example numeric keypads,
should not be connected to the contact sensors
in the Door Station if mounted in an unsecured
area; such devices could be accessed in the event
of a breach of the device. Security-sensitive
devices should be connected to more secure
contacts mounted behind a secure wall.
4 Although the best video performance will be
enabled by Ethernet connectivity, unauthorized
access to the Door Station could provide
access to the dwelling’s Ethernet network and
corresponding personal data.
There are alternatives to mitigate this risk. The
Dealer should consider the following options:
• Running Control4 on an isolated LAN from PCs
on the network would limit exposure to personal
data.
• Running MAC address filtering on the router
or switch to force a hacker to spoof the Door
Station’s MAC address to gain access to the LAN.
• Configuring the Door Station as WiFi instead of
Ethernet would allow the Dealer to use robust
WiFi security protocols, for example, WPA.
NOTE: WiFi signals must be very strong and
stable to support Video Intercom.
• Routing the Ethernet cable to the Door Station
through a secure, managed switch to limit data
access from the Door Station.

Dealers should take time to assure they are not
creating an unforeseen security risk for the customer,
and any such risks should be discussed with the
customer prior to the installation.
Carefully consider with your customer any contacts
or relays before connecting them to the Door Station,
and what implications could arise if someone gained
access to the rear of the Door Station.
Also, think about what could happen if someone
gained access to the Ethernet cable, and take
necessary precautions to protect private customer
information unless your customer is willing to assume
these risks. Making available the proper security
protections to a customer for their residence is the
responsibility of the Control4 Installer.
