Health - Royal Prince Alfred Hospital
Royal Prince Alfred Hospital 
has come a long way it 
since it opened as a 146-
bed hospital and received its 
first patients in 1882. Over 
100 years later, it specialises 
in cardiology, obstetrics 
and gynaecology, oncology, 
respiratory medicine, 
neurology, as well as liver 
and kidney transplants.
The 3,000 users need 
a robust access control 
solution that they can rely on in life-and-death situations.
There are 70 Intelligent 4 Door Access Modules, and many 1 
and 2 Door Access Modules controlling access to over 300 
doors throughout the site, with significant expansion projected 
in future years. 
Multiple Concept 4000 Control Modules are connected with 
system management client/server software that also enables 
design and printing of cards using the Photo ID Module. 
Another software module enables the activation of hard-wired 
and wireless duress buttons to send messages to pagers.
Several LAN Isolators regenerate the signal in long cable runs 
throughout the hospital site and also provide isolation between 
LAN sections in the event 
of lightning-strike, cable-cut etc.
The IR system also controls several critical lifts including the lift 
to the helicopter landing pad and the emergency lift.
As RPA continues to grow, the Hospital can be secure in the 
knowledge that they have invested in a powerful and reliable 
security solution today that will still accommodate their needs 
for many years to come.
Major Residential - World Tower Apartments
The 637 apartments in the 75 
storey World Tower dominate 
the skyline even in the Sydney 
CBD. The Australian Prime 
Minister opened the tallest 
residential apartment building 
in the Southern Hemisphere 
which prides itself on the 
‘World Class Security’ offered 
to tenants.
Four Concept 4000 control 
modules are used throughout 
the building, connected 
together with system 
management software. 
Concept 4000 controls access 
to over 100 doors with over 
2000 users and 100 user types.
Tenants use key fobs for wireless entry to ten car park entries 
over five levels. Twelve lifts servicing three separate tiers of the 
building are controlled by three IR Modules. Button-feedback 
alerts users when they select floors for which they don’t have 
access to.
Panic buttons linked to the Concept 4000 module are sent 
via low-level interfacing to Matrix CCTV stations and DVRs to 
monitor and record images from 133 CCTV cameras in critical 
areas such as car parks, entries and lift lobbies.
The Concept 4000 is also integrated with the Urmet Domus 
Digivoice Intercom system for lift release. Additionally over 50 
inputs including water supply, air-conditioning and pumps are 
monitored in the building plant rooms.
Throughout the huge building, Concept 4000 undertakes an 
amazing array of critical functions both in its own right and in 
conjunction with other premium technology platforms.
