SmaX Access Control Management System - so simple anyone can use it!
SmaX Access Control Management System - so simple anyone can use it!

The IP based SMAX Access Control Management System From BQT is a sophisticated, intelligent and cost-effective security system, which manages the movement of staff and visitors within a building complex. SmaX can be managed and administered by any authorized individual, from any PC that has access to the network.  The system is WEB browser based which means that the database and configuration remains within the SmaX hardware, offering a high level of data security and not requiring a dedicated PC.  Individuals with the correct administration levels can manage remote sites from any location - obtaining reports, authorizing cards and changing access criteria, providing an ideal solution for multi site installations. Designed with the user in mind, setup and configuration are fast and the system is easy to manage - it's completely scalable and can be expanded as your needs grow.  The SmaX management software enables the enrolment of Biometric and Mifare card Data at the click of a button, with the option of associating the cardholder photograph at the same time. The SmaX system has a single intelligent module to make the decisions at the door.  Access permissions and transactions are carried out in these devices, which report directly to the main system in real time.  If the Network fails at any point, these devices ensure system continuity without comprising security.  Smax reduces the cost and stress involved in the management of staff and building security.

Borer introduces FUSION Access Control using PoE TCP/IP over existing traditional legacy systems
Borer introduces FUSION Access Control using PoE TCP/IP over existing traditional legacy systems

Nearly all access systems need a mains power outlet at the door. Fitting a mains spur for a new build can cost from £60, while retrofits can often cost more than £300. Most access control systems require cabinets to house power supplies and electronic circuit boards. These are often mounted above the door or in the ceiling void.Borer's new FUSION Access Control installation needs less hardware. A typical installation consists of a Borer smartcard reader, lock manager and electric lock all fitted at door handle height. The credit-card sized lock manager is mounted inside the Push-To-Exit switch or surface mounting, and is used to perform multiple functions including managing the power to the strike and monitor door status settings.FUSION needs less equipment to be installed and has fewer cables to terminate. You don't need mains power outlets at every door so you don't need a qualified electrician. As all equipment is mounted at door handle height, it can be safety installed without using ladders thereby eliminating the dangers and paperwork associated with working at heights.Many access control systems use traditional cable architecture to connect a chain of access doors to a PC or the LAN via an RS485 to Ethernet converted. The data cable is run from door to door in a daisy chain style. In contrast, FUSION uses standard CAT5e network cable. Each door has its own cable connection to a network bridge. More cable is needed, but CAT5e cable costs a third of the price of RS485 cable.Up to 80% of service calls are often resolved by simple power resetting equipment. FUSION has remote diagnostic and repair facilities built into the access control system. This enables many service tasks to be undertaken via remote control over the internet, using a secure connection. This can significantly impact on service overheads.FUSION supports power and data delivery over CAT5e network cable. This allows the system administrator or service provider to monitor, manage and control door access readers, attendance terminals and security input panels. In this way many basic faults can be resolved without having to call out a service engineer.FUSION can also significantly impact on your energy costs. Borer's door installation consisting of an electric strike and combined smartcard reader/controller using Power over Ethernet technology consumes only 3 watts, costing between £3 and £5 per annum for energy.
