About This Product
Hear an arrival where an ordinary door chime may not reach. The RC 10 (OPTEX RCTD-20U) wireless annunciator uses digital transmission for entry alerts across a shop or workplace.
Compatibility and operating environment
- Entry alerts: Use the system as a wireless chime for a door or other monitored point.
- Additional sensors: Multiple sensors can be ordered with the system; sensors ordered at the same time include batteries and are programmed before shipping.
- Staff notification: An optional pager system is described for communicating with employees around a shop; the pager is not listed as included.
- Doorbell/panic-button option: The RC 10 DB is described as a separate doorbell or help-call option, with a stated maximum range of 700 ft. Confirm the exact accessory before ordering.
- Weather exposure: The existing listing describes the RC 10 DB doorbell as water-resistant. It does not establish a weather rating or operating-temperature range for the complete system. Check the applicable OPTEX specifications before installation in exposed or extreme-cold locations.
Frequency and range
- Digital transmission: 418–430 MHz, as stated in the existing listing.
- System transmission: Up to 2,000 ft, as stated in the existing listing. Actual range depends on placement and obstructions.
- RC 10 DB accessory: Up to 700 ft, as stated in the existing listing.
What comes with the set

- One transmitter
How to choose between wireless door-chime options
- Choose RC 10 when its stated long transmission range and optional pager integration matter more than a basic doorbell alert.
- Choose a basic wireless door chime if you simply need a visitor to press a button at the door; compare its stated range and weather rating for your installation.
- Consider a Dakota Alert door-chime option if a separate doorbell-style transmitter or mailbox-alert setup better fits the job. Check that product's included components and specifications before comparing range or weather performance.
