ASSA ABLOY
ASSA ABLOY’s Aperio wireless locks, along with their IP-enabled Power over Ethernet (PoE) and Wi-Fi locks, offer a cost-effective solution that minimizes the need for extensive wiring around access-controlled doors. These locks are versatile, supporting various applications such as interior office doors, server room cabinets, storage lockers, and entry doors made of glass, wood, steel, or slim aluminum. Leveraging your existing network infrastructure, IP-enabled locks provide enhanced security and facilitate more economical installations.
HID Mobile Credentials Support:
A diverse range of credentials is accommodated, including the HID SEOS format. This format facilitates the use of HID Mobile credentials, allowing seamless door access using a mobile device.
Wireless Solution For Hard-To-Wire Doors:
Wi-Fi locks leverage existing Wi-Fi networks, significantly reducing installation time by eliminating the need for wiring. They’re ideal for doors where wiring installation may be challenging or cost-prohibitive.
One Network Cable For Power & Data:
PoE locks make use of current PoE infrastructure, simplifying installation, cutting costs, and enabling real-time communication for doors accessing high-security areas.
Wide Application Range:
Aperio locks enable the expansion of real-time access control to a diverse array of applications within your facility, including glass doors, drawers, and server cabinets. They also utilize a single network cable for power and data, further streamlining installation and reducing costs.
SALTO
The SALTO Virtual Network (SVN) data-on-card system stores access data directly on the card, eliminating the requirement to update locks or panels whenever there are changes to the list of authorized users or their access rights. This streamlined approach allows facilities to simplify their access management processes significantly. Leveraging RFID technology, SVN data-on-card swiftly updates cards by users simply presenting them through any online lock or wall reader. This ensures that only authorized users have the appropriate access privileges at all times, reducing administrative overhead and enhancing security without the necessity for complex or costly wiring.
Complete Control
Storing access data directly on the card empowers you to extend electronic access control to all doors, even those at remote or out-of-network facilities.
Continuous Updates
With SVN data-on-card, access rights for all doors remain current at all times. This system enables locks to securely read, receive, and write information, ensuring precise control over access.
Scalability
Expand your access control network effortlessly by adding more locks without the need to alter existing infrastructure. This scalability simplifies system growth and adaptation to evolving needs.
Over-the-air Access Management
Effortlessly issue SALTO JustIN Mobile credentials from Unity Access, granting or modifying a user’s door access rights remotely. This feature facilitates convenient, over-the-air management of access privileges.
Schlage
Schlage (a part of the Allegion group of companies) provides an extensive selection of battery-powered, wireless locks, including the AD400, LEB, NDEB, and Control locks, catering to diverse access control requirements. These locks enable facilities to efficiently expand electronic access control throughout the building, extending beyond conventional perimeter and high-security entrances. Furthermore, Schlage wireless locks offer the flexibility to upgrade to new technologies without removing physical locks from the door, ensuring seamless adaptation to evolving security needs.
Flexible Integration Model
Select the lock and technology best suited for each access-controlled door in your facility and centrally manage them through Unity Access.
Panel Interface Module (PIM) Support
Unity Access can establish real-time, long-range communication with Schlage AD-400 locks through Panel Interface Module (PIM) support.
Gateway IP Support
Reduce the necessary infrastructure for wireless connectivity between Unity Access and the locks, enabling live interaction with the locks via Gateway IP Support.
Offline Wi-Fi Support
Unity Access can seamlessly connect to Schlage NDEB and LEB locks via offline Wi-Fi, eliminating the need for additional hardware and facilitating straightforward installation, resulting in cost savings.
