Smartphone-centered video intercoms for multifamily and commercial entrances, offered in multiple screen and mounting configurations.
What this product family does
ButterflyMX lists 8-inch and 12-inch, surface and recessed intercom configurations. The platform supports video calling, resident/tenant directories, visitor passes, PIN access and compatible fob/card use. The manufacturer publishes IP65 environmental protection for current video-intercom hardware; final mounting, weather sealing and vandal exposure still require a site survey.
Products and decisions
| Product area | What it includes | Selection guidance |
|---|---|---|
| 8-inch vs. 12-inch | Screen size, directory experience and available wall area | Review accessibility, approach, visibility and the number of directory entries |
| Surface vs. recessed | Surface installation reduces wall excavation; recessed can provide a different finished profile | Survey wall depth, backbox, waterproofing, cable entry and historic-finish constraints |
| Calling | Smartphone video plus supported telephone workflows | Confirm resident adoption, fallback calling and property support procedures |
| Entry methods | Mobile app, visitor passes, PIN and supported credentials | Set policy for temporary access, photos/logs, delivery and privacy |

How to compare and specify this product family
For ButterflyMX Video Intercom Models, the right model and architecture depend on the site, existing infrastructure and operating policy. A proposal should clearly document the following video-surveillance system decisions before equipment is ordered:
- Scene purpose and required pixels on target
- Lens, mounting height, WDR, IR and low-light needs
- Analytics supported by the selected camera and VMS
- Bandwidth, PoE and network segmentation
- Retention, storage throughput and export workflow
- User roles, cybersecurity, health monitoring and support
Installation, testing and handoff
Design starts with the evidence or operational result required at each scene—not megapixels alone. We document fields of view, identification targets, lighting, camera placement, network load, recording profiles and retention assumptions. Commissioning covers focus, exposure, time synchronization, analytics calibration, user permissions, mobile or remote access, export testing and health alerts. Final documentation records device names, locations, addressing, retention settings and administrator procedures without publishing private credentials.

Official ButterflyMX software, firmware and support
Use the manufacturer links below for current software, firmware, release notes, manuals and technical resources. Boston High Tech links directly to official manufacturer portals and does not copy or host firmware files.
Before installing an update: verify the exact model, region, hardware revision, current version, required intermediate releases, licensing or support entitlement, backup and rollback plan, integrations and maintenance window. An incorrect firmware package or upgrade sequence can interrupt service, invalidate compatibility or prevent a downgrade. Coordinate updates for monitored, life-safety-adjacent or business-critical systems with the system administrator and an authorized specialist.
Some resources require a customer, dealer, certified-technician or active-support login. Cloud-managed products may update automatically and may not provide a public firmware file.
