HARDWARE & SECURITY

» ABLOY UK HAS LAUNCHED INCEDO Offline , an extension to the Incedo ecosystem that allows access to be managed both in real-time and offline at the same premises .

The Incedo solution now allows organisations to secure almost any opening with either an offline autonomous electronic lock or in realtime via online devices , with everything managed in one place , using the flexible , scalable , intuitive platform .

Firstly , the organisation selects the access control hardware required across single or multiple buildings or sites , and then choose between cloud or local management . Areas such as doors , cabinets , gates , server racks and more can be secured with Aperio wireless devices , wired readers or PULSE smart keyoperated , energy-harvesting locks .

Building users are issued with a credential – for example a mobile key on a smartphone , battery-free smart key , or smart-card – which allows access to authorised areas . For example , any user ’ s smart key can be programmed to unlock both online Aperio wireless cylinders and autonomous PULSE cylinders .

The system can be administered securely from anywhere with an internet connection , and installation is easy , with no complex integrations required , and regular automatic software updates .

The addition of Incedo offline gives security and facilities managers the option to combine online and autonomous management , combining real-time access control of high security areas such as entrances , labs , server rooms , with offline control of areas with lower security needs .

Jason Boyce , Commercial Product Manager-EAC at Abloy UK , explains : “ We have seen the landscape of access control change extensively in recent times , with businesses facing challenges such as hybrid working , the need for more efficient use of space , and low energy solutions .

“ With this comes the requirement for access control , which is agile , scalable , and futureproof . The Incedo access control solution ticks all the boxes - with its vast range of digital locks and programmable credentials , it offers the flexibility to grow and adapt to meet evolving needs .

“ Incedo Offline adds another string to our bow , with high functionality offline autonomous devices offering a cost-effective solution with faster installation , and no need for network cables or wireless hubs .”
