Fast Decision Summary for Business Buyers
The Horus E2 family is most useful when a project needs a flexible attendance or access terminal that can connect over standard Ethernet, Wi-Fi or mobile networks and can integrate with common door-control components. The choice between variants matters because the base model does not automatically include every biometric or scanning option. A buyer should define the authentication policy first, then select the appropriate terminal.
Offices, branches, commercial buildings, education, healthcare, warehouses and managed entry points.
Multiple credential choices can support different user groups and operational policies from one product family.
Confirm whether fingerprint, QR scanning or backup power is mandatory, as these are variant-specific.
Useful for fixed wall-mounted access points and for networked attendance projects requiring central software integration.
The platform supports large face, card, user and transaction databases, but business policy and software design should drive final sizing.
Share your door, attendance, software and network requirements so the correct E2 model can be quoted.
Product Overview
The ZKTeco Horus E2 Android Multi-Biometric Terminal sits between a conventional time clock and a more integrated access-control endpoint. Instead of forcing every user to authenticate with the same credential, the platform can work with facial recognition, contactless cards and an on-screen password. Buyers that need fingerprint verification can specify the Horus E2-FP, while projects that require QR workflows can evaluate the E2-QR. The E2-B adds a removable 3,200 mAh lithium backup battery, which can be useful where continuity during short power interruptions or temporary-site operation is part of the requirement.
The terminal uses Android 10 and a 5-inch 720 × 1280 touch display. Its hardware platform includes an octa-core processor running at 2.0 GHz, 2 GB of RAM, 16 GB of internal storage and dual 2MP cameras. These specifications matter because access and attendance terminals are no longer isolated keypads; they handle user databases, image capture, event records, network communication and interactive workflows. A modern user interface also makes enrollment, local administration and daily interaction easier for reception teams, security staff and employees.
For access-control projects, the device offers interfaces for electric lock control, a door sensor, exit button, alarm, Wiegand input/output, ZKTeco RS485 and an auxiliary input. This allows the terminal to become part of a complete controlled-door arrangement instead of operating only as an attendance recorder. Standard functions listed by ZKTeco include anti-passback, photo capture, event photo capture, holidays, record query, schedule bell, tamper alarm and AC/TA push protocol switching. Buyers should still review the intended door design, locking hardware, emergency-exit requirements and local installation practices with the project integrator before deployment.
Connectivity is one of the strongest practical reasons to consider the family. TCP/IP provides predictable wired networking, dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi provides placement flexibility, BLE 4.1 supports local wireless interaction, and 4G mobile communication can support locations where a standard LAN is not the preferred path. For UAE organizations, FourTeck.com can help translate these capabilities into a quotation that matches the actual site: number of terminals, required variants, software platform, credential type, network method, door accessories and expected rollout schedule.
Key Business Benefits
A biometric terminal should not be evaluated only by the number of features on a datasheet. The more useful question is how the platform can simplify identity checks, reduce operational friction and fit into the existing security or HR process. These are the areas where the Horus E2 family can provide practical value.
◆ Flexible Authentication Policy
Face, cards and password are supported in the family, while fingerprint and QR functions are available on dedicated variants. This lets an organization align authentication with different staff groups, visitor processes or project rules instead of building the system around one credential method.
◆ Large User and Event Capacity
Support for up to 50,000 users, 20,000 face templates, 50,000 cards and 200,000 transactions gives the platform room for substantial employee databases and event history. Final suitability should still be considered alongside software architecture and retention requirements.
◆ Network Choice for Different Sites
A project may prefer wired Ethernet in a main office, Wi-Fi in a retrofit location and mobile connectivity at a remote or temporary site. Multiple communication options reduce the need to force every installation into the same network design.
◆ Access and Attendance in One Family
The terminal is designed for both time-attendance and access-control roles. A business can therefore evaluate one product family for entry-point identity checks and attendance recording, simplifying training and procurement where the deployment model is compatible.
◆ Android-Based Integration Potential
Android 10 provides a familiar application platform and ZKTeco positions the device for third-party application integration. Buyers planning custom workflows should verify software interfaces, application requirements and the supported integration path before purchase.
◆ Better Variant Matching
Because the family separates fingerprint, QR and backup-battery functions into variants, procurement teams can match hardware to the real operational need. FourTeck.com can help compare the models so a project avoids choosing by name alone.
Product Highlights That Matter in Real Deployments
The 5-inch touch interface gives users enough screen area for guided interaction without requiring a kiosk-sized device. Dual 2MP cameras support visible-light facial authentication, with the manufacturer specifying a face recognition distance of 30 to 100 cm and facial authentication in under one second. For sites where touchless interaction is preferred, this allows users to authenticate without presenting a finger or physically handling a shared keypad, while card and password remain available as alternative methods.
Card support includes 125 kHz ID cards and 13.56 MHz IC cards as standard. That is useful for organizations migrating from an existing card-based environment because a face-enabled terminal can still participate in credential strategies that include contactless cards. Buyers should confirm the exact card technology already deployed at the site, especially when integrating with an existing badge-issuance process.
The Horus E2-FP adds fingerprint authentication with a 30,000-template capacity and a manufacturer-stated fingerprint authentication time below 0.5 second. The Horus E2-QR is the variant for QR workflows and supports ZKBio Zexus mobile application use as well as PDF417 scanning in third-party development projects. The Horus E2-B is the battery-oriented model and includes a 3,200 mAh lithium battery. These distinctions are important: the buyer should not assume that every function appears in every chassis simply because it belongs to the same product family.
For environmental planning, ZKTeco specifies an operating temperature from -10°C to 45°C and non-condensing relative humidity from 0% to 80%. The terminal is wall-mounted and is compatible with Asian gang-box and single gang-box formats. In practice, project teams should also review cable routes, power supply position, lock hardware, reader placement, user traffic flow and protection from conditions outside the published operating range.

When selecting the configuration, begin with the authentication policy rather than the headline specification. If the organization needs only face, cards and password, the base device may be enough. If fingerprint is a mandatory fallback or policy requirement, specify E2-FP. If mobile or project workflows depend on QR credentials, discuss E2-QR and the intended application environment. If resilience during short power interruption or temporary-site use is important, evaluate E2-B and confirm expected runtime against the actual deployment. Next, confirm whether the terminal is serving attendance only or controlling a physical door, because an access-control installation may require a lock, power supply, exit button, door contact and other components. Finally, review software, network method, enrollment approach and expected user volume. FourTeck.com can use these inputs to prepare a quotation around the correct variant instead of treating all Horus E2 models as interchangeable.
Configuration and Buyer Guidance
The most common purchasing mistake with an access or attendance terminal is to choose the device before defining the workflow. A technically capable unit can still be the wrong fit if it lacks the required credential type, does not match the existing door hardware or is paired with software that does not support the intended reporting process. Use the following questions to prepare a more accurate requirement.
Attendance capture, door access, or both? The answer affects interfaces, software and installation scope.
Face, card and password are core options; fingerprint, QR and battery depend on the selected model.
Choose between wired TCP/IP, dual-band Wi-Fi or mobile communication based on the site network and management plan.
For access control, identify the lock, door sensor, exit button, reader interfaces, power and any controller requirements.
Review ZKBio Time, ZKBio CVAccess or ZKBio Zexus according to attendance, access and mobile requirements.
If the site needs battery-supported operation, discuss the E2-B rather than assuming every variant includes backup power.
Before requesting a quote, send FourTeck.com the number of doors or attendance points, required credential methods, expected number of users, preferred network connection, current card technology, software requirement, installation environment and any existing lock or controller information. For a multi-site rollout, also provide the number of locations and whether all sites need the same variant. This information helps the sales team quote a project-ready combination of terminals and related components instead of only a device part number.
Ideal Business Use Cases
Corporate Office Entry
A business can use facial or card authentication at selected entrances while integrating door sensors, exit buttons and lock control. Attendance recording may be added where the HR process and selected software support the intended workflow.
Employee Time Attendance
The large user and transaction capacity suits organizations that need centralized employee records across departments or shifts. The exact reporting process depends on the chosen ZKBio software and the organization’s attendance rules.
Warehouse and Logistics Sites
Facilities with shift workers and controlled doors can benefit from fast facial or card verification. Deployment teams should confirm mounting, network reach, power, environmental conditions and the preferred fallback credential.
Education and Training Facilities
Staff access, administrative attendance and restricted rooms can be managed with consistent credential policies. Where student or visitor QR workflows are part of the requirement, the E2-QR should be evaluated specifically.
Clinics and Healthcare Administration
Touchless face authentication can be useful at staff access points where reducing shared-touch interaction is desirable. Security policy, privacy controls and location-specific operational procedures should be reviewed before rollout.
Temporary and Project Locations
4G connectivity can help sites where permanent network infrastructure is limited. If backup power is part of the project brief, E2-B provides the battery-equipped option within the family.
The product is also relevant to multi-site organizations that want to standardize a common terminal family while tailoring authentication by location. A head office may use face plus cards, a project site may require mobile connectivity, and a visitor-oriented location may need QR. Standardization is most effective when the business also standardizes enrollment, card technology, software, reporting rules and installation documentation. The terminal should be treated as part of a complete identity and access workflow rather than as an isolated wall device.
ZKTeco Horus E2 Multi-Method Authentication
The biggest operational strength of the Horus E2 family is not one specific biometric mode; it is the ability to build a credential policy around different users and scenarios. Facial authentication can provide a touchless primary method, cards can remain useful for staff who already carry workplace badges, and the virtual keypad gives an additional password option. That flexibility allows security and HR teams to define a practical fallback rather than making every employee depend on a single biometric factor.
The manufacturer specifies a facial recognition distance of 30 to 100 cm, which is appropriate for close-range interaction at a door or attendance point. Facial authentication is listed at under one second. For deployments with high traffic at shift changes, this matters because small delays at each transaction can quickly create queues. However, real-world throughput will still depend on how users approach the device, the mounting position, enrollment quality, lighting conditions and any additional verification steps in the policy.
If fingerprint is required, buyers should choose the E2-FP rather than assuming the base Horus E2 includes a sensor. ZKTeco lists a 30,000 fingerprint-template capacity for E2-FP and authentication under 0.5 second. QR support is likewise tied to E2-QR. These model boundaries are useful for procurement because they create a clearer match between project requirement and hardware. They also make it important to document the suffix in purchase orders, quotes and deployment plans.
ZKTeco Horus E2 Connectivity and Door Integration
A biometric terminal becomes much easier to deploy when the network design does not dictate a single cabling method. Horus E2 supports TCP/IP for standard wired connectivity, dual-band Wi-Fi using 802.11 ac/a/b/g/n at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, BLE 4.1 and 4G mobile communication. This allows infrastructure teams to choose the path that suits the site. Wired Ethernet may be preferred where reliability and structured cabling are already available, while Wi-Fi can simplify retrofits. Mobile communication can be useful for project or remote locations where the local network is temporary or deliberately separated.
For access control, the terminal also needs to fit the physical door design. The interface set includes electric lock control, a door sensor, exit button, alarm, auxiliary input, Wiegand input/output and ZKTeco RS485. These interfaces give system designers options for connecting readers and common door components, but they do not remove the need for proper access-control engineering. Lock type, fail-safe or fail-secure behavior, fire-alarm release, emergency egress, cable gauge, power supply sizing and local compliance requirements remain part of the installation scope.
The device supports anti-passback, holidays, schedule bell, photo capture, event photo capture, record query and tamper switch alarm among its standard functions. Such features can help administrators create more structured access and attendance rules when they are correctly configured in the device and related software.
ZKTeco Horus E2 Android Platform and Software Fit
Android 10 gives the terminal a more application-oriented foundation than a traditional closed attendance keypad. ZKTeco positions the platform for third-party application integration, while also listing ZKBio Time and ZKBio CVAccess as supported software and ZKBio Zexus as the related mobile application. This creates several possible deployment paths, but the right choice depends on whether the business is prioritizing attendance management, access control, mobile workflows or custom integration.
For attendance projects, the software design should cover enrollment, shift policies, reporting, exceptions, exports and the relationship with payroll or HR processes. For access control, administrators may need door schedules, user groups, anti-passback settings, event monitoring and role-based administration. A project that uses QR credentials should confirm how codes are generated, distributed, validated and expired. A custom Android use case should be reviewed in more depth because application compatibility, APIs, device permissions and support responsibility can materially affect the project.
The hardware platform of an octa-core 2.0 GHz processor with 2 GB RAM and 16 GB ROM is designed for the terminal’s intended workloads, but buyers should not treat it like a general-purpose Android tablet. The device is an identity and access endpoint with a specialized interface set and manufacturer software ecosystem. Integration decisions should therefore be made around supported functionality, not only the presence of Android.
What Should You Know Before Choosing This Terminal?
Business buyers often know the outcome they want—faster attendance, better door control, fewer credential problems or easier site connectivity—but they may not know which Horus E2 version matches that outcome. The answers below focus on practical selection questions that should be resolved before a purchase order is raised.
Is the base Horus E2 enough for face and card access?
Yes, the base model supports facial authentication, cards and password entry. If the requirement specifically includes fingerprint or QR credentials, choose the corresponding E2-FP or E2-QR version. Defining the credential policy before quotation avoids ordering a model that lacks a mandatory authentication method.
Can this terminal handle a large employee database?
The manufacturer lists capacities of up to 50,000 users, 20,000 face templates, 50,000 cards and 200,000 transactions. Those figures provide substantial headroom for many organizations, but a buyer should also consider how user records, events and reports are synchronized and retained in the selected software environment.
Which model should I choose if fingerprint is mandatory?
Choose Horus E2-FP. ZKTeco lists 30,000 fingerprint templates for that model and fingerprint authentication below 0.5 second. Fingerprint is not shown as a standard capability on the base E2, E2-B or E2-QR, so the suffix should be written clearly on the quotation and purchase order.
Can the terminal be used where wired Ethernet is difficult?
Yes, the family supports dual-band Wi-Fi and 4G mobile communication in addition to TCP/IP. The best connection depends on signal quality, network security, management policy and site permanence. For a temporary project site, mobile connectivity can be especially useful when permanent cabling is not yet available.
Does every Horus E2 include a backup battery?
No. ZKTeco lists the 3,200 mAh lithium backup battery on the Horus E2-B. The other listed variants use DC 12V 3A power without that battery specification. If continuity is required, state the expected outage scenario so the battery-equipped version can be evaluated properly.
Will it integrate with an existing controlled door?
It provides electric-lock, door-sensor, exit-button, alarm, Wiegand and RS485 interfaces, but compatibility depends on the existing hardware and system design. Share the lock type, reader or controller model, power arrangement and door wiring with the installer or FourTeck.com before finalizing the order.
What software should be planned for attendance or access control?
ZKTeco lists ZKBio Time and ZKBio CVAccess as supported software, with ZKBio Zexus as the mobile application. The choice should follow the business workflow. Attendance reporting, access rules, mobile credentials and custom integration each have different software requirements that should be confirmed before purchase.
What should be checked when replacing an older attendance terminal?
Check credential type, user enrollment migration, software compatibility, network addressing, power supply, mounting dimensions, card technology and reporting requirements. A replacement is not only a hardware swap if the old system stores templates or uses a software version that does not map cleanly to the new platform.
Which details make a quotation more accurate?
Provide the required Horus E2 variant, quantity, number of doors or attendance points, credential methods, current card type, software requirement, network method, access-control accessories, installation environment and delivery location. This prevents a quote from covering only the terminal while missing essential project components.
Common Business Requirements This Product Can Support
For offices that need touchless staff entry
Facial authentication provides a close-range touchless method, while card and password can remain available for exceptions. Buyers should confirm door hardware and the preferred fallback policy.
For businesses standardizing attendance across sites
The common Android platform, user capacity and multiple network choices can support standardization. Multi-site projects should align software, enrollment and credential rules before bulk deployment.
For projects requiring fingerprint fallback
Specify E2-FP rather than the base model. This is especially important when procurement documents list only “Horus E2” but the security policy explicitly requires fingerprints.
For temporary sites with limited LAN infrastructure
4G and Wi-Fi provide alternatives to fixed Ethernet. If temporary power resilience is also needed, discuss the E2-B and verify the power scenario before ordering.
For visitor or mobile credential workflows
The E2-QR is the model to evaluate for QR-based processes, including ZKBio Zexus use and supported third-party PDF417 projects. Confirm how codes will be issued and managed.
For replacement projects that must preserve existing cards
Standard support for 125 kHz ID and 13.56 MHz IC cards can help, but buyers should verify the exact existing credential technology and enrollment process before assuming full compatibility.
What Buyers Should Check Before Purchase
A successful purchase depends on more than selecting the model from a catalogue. Access and attendance systems touch security policy, HR processes, network infrastructure, physical doors and user enrollment. Before requesting a quote, buyers should document the operational outcome and the components already present at the site. This reduces the risk of ordering the right terminal but the wrong variant, missing a required reader interface or discovering later that the software workflow needs additional planning.
Configuration Fit
Write down whether the project needs face only, face plus card, fingerprint, QR or backup battery. The E2 suffix determines several of these functions, so a generic model description is not enough for procurement.
Compatibility Check
Confirm card frequency, lock type, door sensor, exit button, controller or reader interfaces, network method and supported software. Existing systems should be reviewed component by component rather than assumed compatible.
Availability and Warranty
Availability can differ by variant and quantity. Ask for current supplier status and warranty terms on the actual quoted model. Avoid basing the project timeline on a different Horus E2 version that happens to be more widely listed.
Installation Scope
A complete door project may require locking hardware, suitable power, cabling, an exit button, door contact, emergency-release considerations and commissioning. Clarify whether the quotation should cover device supply only or a broader solution.
Software and Data
For replacement systems, check how existing users and attendance history will be handled. For new systems, define enrollment ownership, administrator roles, reports, integrations and retention rules before rollout.
Quote Preparation
Provide quantity, model variant, site type, credential policy, network method, software requirement, door hardware and delivery location. For project orders, include the rollout schedule and whether each site has the same configuration.
Long-term cost also deserves attention. The terminal itself is only one element of the lifecycle. Consider credential issuance, software licensing where applicable, installation, network connectivity, power supplies, replacement accessories, ongoing administration and any integration work. FourTeck.com can help buyers organize these requirements before quotation so the selected product matches the business process rather than being chosen only on initial device cost.
UAE Availability and Service Support
FourTeck.com supports business inquiries for the Horus E2 family in Dubai and across the UAE. Because the family includes several variants, availability should be checked against the exact requirement rather than treated as a single universal stock item. The requested authentication functions, order quantity and supplier position can influence lead time and sourcing options. FourTeck does not recommend relying on a generic listing when the project requires a specific suffix such as E2-FP, E2-B or E2-QR.
Pre-sales support can include model review, configuration guidance, software consideration, network planning inputs, compatible door-component discussion and quotation assistance. Where the terminal will be part of a new controlled door, buyers should identify the lock, door sensor, exit button, power and cabling requirements so the quotation reflects the wider solution. For attendance-only projects, the software and reporting workflow should be defined before bulk rollout.
Delivery coordination and warranty guidance are handled according to the quoted product, supplier conditions and destination. Terms can vary, so FourTeck.com can confirm the current position at the time of quotation. This approach gives procurement teams a clearer basis for approval without relying on unverified stock, delivery or warranty assumptions.
Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and Ajman Coverage
Businesses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman and other UAE locations can contact FourTeck.com for product availability, configuration guidance and quotation support. The requirement review can cover terminal quantity, selected Horus E2 variant, user enrollment approach, card type, network connectivity, door-control accessories and software. For multi-location projects, procurement teams can provide a site list so differences between branches are identified before ordering. Delivery arrangements and warranty guidance are confirmed according to the quoted supplier terms and destination, helping buyers keep product selection and project planning aligned.
GCC and Africa Availability

Organizations in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain, as well as buyers in Kenya, Uganda and other Africa-region markets, can request assistance with model selection and sourcing. Availability, shipping options, local taxes, warranty handling and support arrangements can vary by country and should be confirmed for each order.
For regional projects, provide the destination country, required quantity, authentication methods, software environment and whether the terminals will be installed at one site or several locations. Cross-border projects benefit from keeping the model suffix consistent in every bill of materials, especially where fingerprint, QR or battery requirements differ between branches. If local card technology or network connectivity differs by country, note those differences before the quotation is finalized.
Regional inquiry routes include FourTeck Kenya, FourTeck Uganda, FourTeck Africa and FourTeck Kuwait. Final supply and support conditions depend on country, product version and supplier status.
Other Options Buyers May Consider
The Horus E2 family itself provides several useful alternatives. Choosing between them is often more relevant than comparing unrelated biometric terminals because the platform and core operating approach remain familiar while the authentication or continuity feature changes. Buyers with a broader access-control requirement can also explore related ZKTeco and biometric options through FourTeck.com.
Horus E2-FP
Best for organizations that need fingerprint authentication in addition to face, card and password workflows.
Horus E2-B
Suitable when the project needs the Horus E2 platform with the listed 3,200 mAh removable lithium backup battery.
Horus E2-QR
The family option to evaluate when QR credentials, ZKBio Zexus mobile use or supported PDF417 workflows are required.
ZKTeco SpeedFace Series
A related ZKTeco product family worth reviewing when a project requires a different biometric mix, housing or deployment profile.
FourTeck.com can help compare these options based on the actual project rather than on marketing labels.
