The SMARTair system is now available to professional security installers from Assa Abloy Access Control.
SMARTair is a scalable access control system that can reportedly be installed easily by security installers. Available in offline and wireless online versions, the system is end-to-end battery-operated making it suitable for a variety of installations.
The system uses RFID reader technology to provide a secure access solution to areas with diverse ranges and frequencies of foot traffic. The RFID reader and locking mechanism are all housed in one device. As an energy-efficient technology, SMARTair devices need minimal maintenance, with battery changes only required after approximately 70,000 cycles. It also eliminates key management and control issues in favour of a card-based access solution, in which cards can be issued, invalidated and updated in real time for maximum security.
In use, SMARTair gives relevant stakeholders the ability to lock, unlock and grant door access permissions at allotted times and dates. The level of control is further strengthened with the audit trail function, which allows the production of attendance records for security and administrative purposes. This ability to audit trail also makes SMARTair invaluable because it can provide access control information 24/7 in real-time and audit trails can be provided to see who is accessing sensitive or restricted areas.
Alan Kent, Access Control Manager said: “SMARTair is an access control solution that has been tried and tested over many years, and we are very excited to make this versatile system available. Its adaptability makes it ideal for a number of sectors, including education and healthcare. Security Installers can take advantage of the adaptability offered by the technology, as well as UK-based technical training and support.”
