Allegion U.S., a provider of security products and solutions announced the unveiling of its next-generation reader controller – the Schlage RC.
This new innovative device combines the power of the Pure IP™ access control technology pioneered by ISONAS with Schlage’s intelligent hardware and credentials, delivering a comprehensive and cost-effective perimeter solution to customers.
Scalable and flexible solution
The benefits of having a panel and reader in a single enclosure not only eliminate the need for multiple devices but create a simplified architecture with the ease of installation. Customers have the power to leverage their existing infrastructure with this scalable and flexible solution.
The Schlage RC reader controller complements the broader Schlage ecosystem, including the Schlage NDE and LE wireless locks, for a complete interior and exterior solution. It is also compatible with Schlage credentials, including 125 kHz proximity, 13.56 MHz smart, 2.4 GHz mobile, and NFC.
Secure, comprehensive IP/PoE solution
An IP/PoE solution that creates a simple install process and reduces the overall costs of deploying an access control solution
“We are excited to be able to offer a secure, comprehensive IP/PoE solution to customers that creates a simple install process and reduces overall costs of deploying an access control solution at their facility,” states Mark Casey, Director of National Electronic Sales at Allegion.
“And since the new RC is designed to work in the same system as Schlage NDE and LE wireless locks, employees and staff members can also use their electronic credentials on offices, equipment rooms, storage closets, and sensitive spaces.”
Perimeter and touchless applications
The Schlage RC reader controller is the perfect hardware solution for perimeter applications where access control software is used to manage doors across single or multiple sites. It integrates easily with open Physical Access Control Software (PACS) systems.
Allegion offers a complete portfolio of IP and mobile-enabled devices, as well as life safety and touchless hardware to customise electronic access control across a variety of popular applications and openings.
Real-time access control
The Schlage RC reader controller opens the door to real-time access control by connecting directly to the IT network via a single PoE cable, which simplifies and creates a seamless installation. By eliminating the need to run separate power to the door, deployment time is significantly reduced.
It provides connectivity that is secured using industry-standard TLS 1.2 encryption and offers both a cohesive look and an advanced feature set. There are three multi-technology reader-controller models available that allow for common mounting options, which include the RC11 mullion mount, RC15 single gang mount, and RCK15 (a single gang mount with keypad).
