Description
### Integration by Design
Kantech ioProx readers and cards deliver an optimal access control solution characterized by cyber resilience and straightforward installation, ensuring the security of personnel, assets, and operations. These devices provide seamless integration with Kantech’s suite of access control systems, including door controllers and EntraPass Security Management Software.
### Encoding & Authentication
ioProx readers accommodate dual-encoded proximity cards — supporting both 26-bit Wiegand and Kantech Extended Security Format (XSF) technologies. XSF cards boast over four billion unique codes, eliminating duplication concerns. The combination of ioProx keypad readers with a proximity card presentation and a Personal Identification Number (PIN) enhances security by enabling dual authentication.
### Presenting Our Credentials
Featuring established and reliable technology, ioProx cards effortlessly synchronize with ioProx readers. These cards come in diverse shapes and materials allowing flexible design options; they can be easily attached to key rings, badge clips, or lanyards. The disk-shaped P50TAG can adhere to any non-metallic surface, such as a smartphone, and certain card models support dye sublimation printing.
### Selecting the Right Reader
Selection of ioProx readers depends on mounting preferences (single gang box or mullion), compatible card formats (26-bit Wiegand or Kantech XSF), reading range, and authentication type (card only or card plus PIN).
### Read Range
Depending on the model and operating conditions, ioProx readers offer a varied read range from 16.5 cm to 73 cm (6.5 inches to 29 inches). The P600 Long Range Reader, with its extended capacity, is perfect for parking lots and other applications requiring longer read distances.
### Appealing/Durable Readers
ioProx readers are designed to be aesthetically pleasing, compact, weather-resistant, and vandal-proof, making them ideal for diverse indoor and outdoor settings. The bicolor LED on these readers signals system status, turning green to signify a successful read upon card presentation, and can also reflect if the alarm system is armed or disarmed. Additionally, the piezoelectric buzzer audibly confirms a successful read.
