Weather-Resistant Reader Provides Keypad, Proximity or 2-Step Verification
CARMEL, IND. – September 7, 2010 – Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies today announced that its new Schlage SXF2110P-K mid-range keypad/proximity card reader is ideal for applications utilizing legacy proximity systems in which users wish to incorporate two-step verification – something the user has, such as their proximity card, plus something the user knows, such as a PIN – to gain access. Operating at 125 kHz, the up to six-inch (15.24 cm) read range reader conveniently integrates into existing proximity based access control systems and is compatible with most popular proximity credentials.
“Many organizations have applications that require multi-factor authentication,” emphasizes Jennifer Toscano, Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies marketing manager. “In some applications, only using a proximity card does not provide the desired level of security. This cost-effective reader allows them to continue to use their established base of proximity cards plus adds the PIN feature for 2-step verification.”
The SXF2110P-K mid-range keypad/proximity card reader is manufactured with highest quality UV-resistant materials, inhibiting discoloration in all types of environmental conditions, including direct sunlight. They also feature potted electronics and circuitry for protection against inclement weather.
The new SXF2110P-K reader is available now. For more information, interested parties can go to www.schlage.com.
