CM-9800 Series surface mount capacitive touch switches, with LED illumination, are vandal and weather resistant with IP 66 rating. The units feature a cast metal design and an adjustable 0 to 60 second relay timer. The CM-9800 has an external input, so that the switch illumination may be activated by either the switch status or the door (locked) status.

The large surface area of the capacitive switch is easy to activate, with only a light touch, and the large LED light illumination enables the switch to be highly visible in low light conditions.

Capacitive and piezo exit buttons are essential components in modern access control systems, providing reliable request-to-exit (REX) functionality for maglocks, electric strikes, and automatic door operators. Products like the Camden CM-9800/7 capacitive switch offer a sleek, touch-sensitive interface ideal for commercial interiors, while rugged piezoelectric models such as the Camden CM-9600/7 deliver unmatched durability for exterior and high-traffic applications. Selecting the right exit device ensures long-term performance, compliance with ADA requirements, and seamless integration with access control hardware.
