WIRELESS SWING HANDLE IS ENHANCED WITH SWIPE CARD SECURITY

1 min read

Central network wireless control, coupled with RFID transponder swipe card technology, adds higher levels of security to a series of battery powered electronically controlled swing handles for data cabinet protection.

EMKA's program 3000 Agent E standalone swing handles can be used wirelessly, on their own, or networked in groups controlled via an RJ45 linked ProxLock module, which is now supplemented with personal RFID transponder card identification for duel level control, the company says. The upgraded handles therefore forms a flexible security module within an expandable network, usable on otherwise vulnerable data or control cabinets, it is claimed. Typically this may include server cabinets or machine controls where unauthorised access is likely to put personnel, machine or information safety at risk from tampering, vandalism and sabotage, data theft or simple inappropriate usage. The card reader works on 125 kHz or 13.56 MHz and each handle is equipped with a covert USB connection for emergency power and memory log download on standalone versions. Handles retain their finger touch release on network master and slave units, along with green and red LED indicators which identify the operating window. Naturally the Agent E swing handles are compatible with other EMKA door closure equipment such as cams and rod controls for multi-point locking. Door contact sensors may be linked to all versions.
