Access Control ’s Card Reader range provides rapid and secure access control management with contactless card readers.
A keypad door reader requires a user to type in a PIN or passcode to unlock the door. Keypad readers offer good security as there is no physical credential that can be passed around or stolen. However, users could still share their PIN with others, compromising building security.
Swipe card readersThis type of door card reader works with key cards or badges that have a magnetic strip which contains authentication data. Users swipe their card through the reader in order to unlock the door. One consideration with this type of access control system is the daily wear and tear on the hardware and cards means they need to be serviced and replaced more frequently.
Radio frequency identification technology has many uses, including for access control. With an RFID access control system the credentials contain information tags that send signals to nearby readers. Most RFID access control systems use passive RFID, also referred to as proximity or prox card technology. Proximity-based access control systems most often use key cards or key fobs for access.
Biometric door readersOften the most expensive type of door security reader, biometric readers use scanners to identify users by a unique physical feature, such as a fingerprint, iris, or facial recognition. Mobile access control systems with smartphone-based credentials can use the biometrics built into the phone as a form of two-factor authentication.
Smart lock door readersThe most advanced and versatile door security readers on this list, smart readers often combine multiple types of reader technology into one system. Smart readers offer greater flexibility and security with support for mobile credentials, key cards, key fobs, and even touchless unlocking capabilities.
Access Control Controllers are the interface between the Command Centre server and hardware on a site. The modular design of our controllers ensures a cost-effective approach to creating a Access Control access solution, while straightforward system architecture provides powerful and flexible configuration options.
The Proximity Card sets the electronic security benchmark for 125-kHz proximity cards with a read range of 8 inches (202mm). Based upon proven contactless digital radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, this card interfaces with the Controller system by complying with the Wiegand communication protocol.
