Camden CX-MDC Magnetic Contact Surface Mount SPDT
Overview
The CX-MDC is a surface-mounted magnetic contact switch with SPDT (Single-Pole Double-Throw) relay configuration in white finish. It delivers real-time door position feedback to networked access control systems, signaling whether a secured door or entry point is open or closed. TCP/IP communication enables integration into modern access management platforms, eliminating the need for dedicated hardwired status lines to every door. Install this where you need to monitor door state without pulling additional cable runs—the network connection carries both control and status.
Compatibility
The CX-MDC integrates with TCP/IP-based access control platforms and door monitoring systems. It pairs with Camden magnetic lock and strike assemblies in the CX series (CX-91S and CX-92S families and their accessories). Surface mount design fits standard door frames and door frame strikes. Compatible with systems requiring real-time contact status feedback from multiple secured entry points. Suitable for networked security infrastructure deployments where centralized monitoring and audit logging of door open/close events is required.
Installation Notes
Surface mount installation requires mounting to the door frame or strike location using the fastening points designed into the CX-MDC housing. The device connects via TCP/IP to your access control management system—verify network connectivity and firewall rules before deployment. White finish blends into standard door frames; coordinate mounting height and orientation with your strike hardware to ensure reliable magnet alignment. Test contact closure and opening across the full door swing before placing into production.
