Telcred currently supports three different door controllers from Axis Communications:

A1001 was the original door controller from Axis launched in 2013. The A1001 supports two readers and two electric locks, so it can be used to control one door with two readers and two locks or two doors with one reader and one lock each. It can also be used together with a hub and control:

A1601 is the "big brother" to the A1001. It is functionally equivalent but has a stronger processor and more memory. For projects with more than a few thousand card credentials it is recommended to use the A1601 instead of the A1001. It also has some minor differences when it comes to the electrical sockets. Just like the A1001, the A1601 can be used together with a hub and control:

A9161 is actually not a door controller in Axis terminology, but with Telcred Access Manager it can be used like one. The A9161 does not support readers so it can only be used to open doors remotely, e.g. via Telcred Entry or from the admin GUI. This also means that it will not work if the controller is temporarily offline (in contrast to door controllers that store card credentials and PIN codes locally). The A9161 also does not support wireless locks via a hub.
