Wireless access control for people
Integrate ELA Innovation beacons and tags into your people access control solutions.
Wireless access control for people, what is it?
How does wireless access control for people actually work?
Blueooth low-energy technology is an open, non-proprietary communication protocol, making it easy to integrate into existing IT networks. In fact, most wifi access points on the market can act as Bluetooth gateways, scanning and collecting data from nearby BLE beacons.
Each person is equipped with a Bluetooth beacon transmitting at regular intervals. When a person enters the detection field of the wifi router, the unique identification number assigned to his or her badge is transmitted via the IT network to the company’s servers/cloud. This makes it possible to grant or restrict access to secure areas according to user profiles.
What’s more, as ELA Innovation’s Bluetooth beacons are equipped with an NFC chip, they can also be read directly by access control equipment on the market (turnstiles, gantries, etc.).
Wireless access control for people is based on Active DOT RFID technology. The network infrastructure is simple to install, and consists of reading equipment and Active RFID identification tags. Each person present on site (staff, visitors, patients, etc.) is equipped with a 100% anonymous and autonomous identification badge.
When a person approaches a door, the badge is detected by the reader. If the person is authorized to enter or leave the area, the door opens automatically. If the person is not authorized, the door remains closed. And if the door has been left open by mistake, an audible and visual alert is triggered when the unauthorized person passes through.
This identification technology combines two frequency bands:
– A low frequency (124KHz) enabling detection at a precise, configurable distance;
– A high-frequency band (433MHz) for transmission of secure identification data to reading equipment.
“It is a security and it reassures the families and the agents”
