Access Controllers

The controller is where the decision happens. A reader asks; the controller answers — checking the identity, the schedule and the door state, then opening, refusing or raising an alarm, and writing every event down.

This category exists for the part of the installation nobody sees and everything depends on. The ID Access Controller is the network-based unit ID Network has built its own verified access installations on — web administration, 10,000 cardholders, remote control, and 256-bit AES on the wire.

It fits the system as its centre: readers connect to it, credentials are verified through it, and power and backup keep it deciding through a power cut.
