OVERVIEW
The EtherProx™ 200 reader is the industry’s smallest Ethernet card reader with
integrated keypad, LCD display and internal database giving off-line validation and
intelligent decision-making at the point of entry, even when host communications are
not available. The reader also stores transaction details to be transferred to the host
computer when communications are restored.
Available in both traditional 125 kHz proximity (EPO200) and MiFare smart card
(EPO210) options the EtherProx communicates directly with the central server via
10Base-T Ethernet removing the need for a door control panel in the system design.
An impressive 150,000+ off-line card database is available allowing the reader to make
full access control decisions independently of the host system, in the event of network
failure.
Designed for use as part of the CEM AC2000 and despite its small size the reader can
display messages of up to 32 characters, providing system administrators and end users
with immediate text descriptions of events such as ‘Access Denied’. The reader provides
its own anti-tamper protection and interfaces directly to the door furniture and 12V
lock power supply eliminating the need for additional controllers, I/O (Input/Output)
units and greatly reducing installation costs.
