AXIS A1001 Network Door Controller

Access control is a pivotal element that sits high up on the totem pole of security. On that note, the AXIS A1001 Network Door Controller is a must-have. It can be best described as an open, non-proprietary platform for access management and importantly meets the requirements for not only advanced enterprise systems but also smaller installations.

AXIS A1001 is known for being a scalable and future-proof solution that can easily integrate with other systems and components – provision for the mentioned is enabled by utilising IP, standard IT equipment and the powerful Application Programming Interface (API).

The AXIS A1001 Network Door Controller is decked out with very sophisticated built-in software for basic access management. It is also very versatile as the unit can be integrated with solutions provided by Axis partners – courtesy of its acceptance for third-party software.

Each door is installed with a smart independent device – the controller. Data is automatically synchronized between the controllers in the system. In the event of a network failure, it will continue its normal operation and buffer events locally.

The inclusion of the support of Power over Ethernet removes the need for separate power cables to door accessories and other proprietary data cables. Pleasingly fail-safe and effective installations are enabled by the controller’s color coded connectors and the configuration wizard.

Most reader types are supported by the controller. It’s installed with configurable input/output ports and controllable power outputs. This is used for external equipment such as door locks and positioning sensors. The process of including new controllers in the system is a simple and hassle-free process. Other equipment such as the door controller can still be used even if at some point you require a more advanced solution.

This network door controller is sophisticated to the core as it even has fault and tamper detection which is a major plus. The support for Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) enables power to be maintained in the event of a power outage and eliminates the need for battery back-up at each door.

The AXIS A1001 Network Door Controller is an A-grade product and also a prime example of AXIS COMMUNICATIONS’ superior technological prowess.
