Access Controls Redefined with HID

Long-range iCLASS SE readers and credentials make it possible for organizations to combine parking, gate and door access control on a single card for a secure and convenient solution

HID Global has expanded its iCLASS SE platform with long-range ultra-high-frequency (UHF) solutions that provide new options for opening doors and parking gates from a distance. The addition of long-range iCLASS SE readers and credentials enables organizations to combine parking gate and door access control on a single card.

“The new solution has already delivered proven security and convenience benefits in early deployments at installations spanning hundreds of readers and more than a million credentials.” said John Fenske, vice president of product marketing – Physical Access Control with HID Global.

HID Global’s long-range solutions portfolio includes a new rugged and weather-resistant reader that has been optimized for outdoor use. The iCLASS SE U90 Long Range reader can be used from distances of up to 16.4 feet (5 meters) and features advanced encryption along with end-to-end communications technology for the industry’s highest level of UHF access control security. Also available is a dual-technology iCLASS SE and UHF credential for use with the UHF reader and other iCLASS SE platform readers, providing a single solution for seamless door, parking and gate control.
