Genetec Inc., a globally renowned technology provider of unified security, public safety, operations, and business intelligence solutions, has announced the immediate availability of a new generation of its Synergis Cloud Link PoE-enabled IoT gateway for access control.
Synergis Cloud Link
Manufactured in North America to mitigate supply chain delays, Synergis Cloud Link addresses increasing demand for non-proprietary access control solutions and provides a safe and secure gateway to a Cloud or hybrid deployment.
When modernising an existing security system, Synergis Cloud Link’s open architecture allows organisations to leverage their current access control infrastructure and easily upgrade to a secure IP-based solution.
Efficient approach to multi-site deployments
Synergis Cloud Link provides a more efficient approach to multi-site deployments and replaces the need for servers, reducing the cost of ownership. The Synergis Cloud Link IoT gateway has embedded functionalities that keep an organisation’s access control running, even when connection to the server is down.
The new generation of Synergis Cloud Link provides more features, enhanced cyber security, and helps future-proof security installations. Synergis Cloud Link features enhanced cyber security, such as encrypted user data, Secure Boot, and an EAL6+ industry gold standard Secure Element that stores cryptographic elements.
Growing need for non-proprietary access control solutions
The need for non-proprietary access control solutions has never been greater"
“The need for non-proprietary access control solutions has never been greater,” said Thibault Louvet, Access Control Product Group Director, Genetec Inc, adding “Our new generation Synergis Cloud Link enables us to provide organisations with a powerful, secure and intelligent gateway to the latest technology, while allowing them to easily connect to hybrid or cloud access control environments, and keep their existing security investment, including hardware, wiring, and infrastructure.”
The device is compatible with non-proprietary access control modules from the industry’s most established manufacturers, including HID Global, Axis Communications, ASSA ABLOY, Mercury Security, Allegion, SimonsVoss, STid, and others.
New firmware design and enhanced reliability
A single Synergis Cloud Link device can support up to 256 readers and electronic locks, 600,000 card holders, 150,000 offline events, as well as monitor hundreds of zones and alarms.
Synergis Cloud Link features a new firmware design, improving reliability and lifecycle management and updates management. It also opens the door to containerised approach for operating software on the device, expanding its future capabilities.
