ASSA ABLOY, Next Level Security Systems Announce Access Control Integration
ASSA ABLOY'S Aperio Locks, NLSS Gateway Create Powerful Security Solution
New Haven, CT - ASSA ABLOY, the global leader in door opening solutions, and Next Level Security Systems, a developer of a new breed of unified, networked security solutions, announce the integration of the NLSS Gateway with ASSA ABLOY'S range of Aperio(TM) wireless locks. Next Level will be supporting Mercury Powered Aperio products, making integration into Mercury-based access control systems seamless.
The award-winning NLSS Gateway is a unified solution that combines multiple subsystems including video management, access control, analytics and more into a single, easy-to-use networked platform. Its features are completely accessible and controllable from anywhere through a web browser, and it includes advanced deployment tools such as auto-discovery and provisioning. The NLSS Gateway supports multiple streams of digital video in various resolutions and formats, and access control panels and readers from one door to hundreds. Several performance models (GW-500 and GW-3000) are available, based on functionality and installation requirements.
Aperio is a wireless technology from ASSA ABLOY that provides an easy, affordable way to connect additional openings to an existing electronic access control system. Offering wireless communication (IEEE 802.15.4), the simplicity and flexibility of Aperio allow lower-cost installations than traditional access control with less complexity than other wireless options in the market. With over 40 access control partners that have already adopted the technology globally, facilities can easily extend the number of doors that can be monitored with their currently installed panels and systems.
The benefits to customers of both companies are significant. Next Level customers have access to a powerful family of Aperio wireless locks that are easily and cost-effectively installed, providing end users with a simple solution for upgrading the security level of their premises. Facilities implementing Aperio technology can now utilize a browser-based, scalable product that can dramatically expand their access control capabilities.
"The integration of the NLSS Gateway with the Aperio family of wireless locks creates a powerful access control solution," said Bill Jacobs, Vice President, Access Control for
Next Level Security Systems. "With the ability of the NLSS Gateway to connect to various downstream devices, and the broad range of Aperio devices, we can offer a comprehensive security system that expands beyond traditional openings."
"Our partnership with Next Level delivers a unified solution combining Aperio technology with the NLSS Gateway" said Martin Huddart, V.P. of Electronic Technologies, ASSA ABLOY Americas. "This partnership offers customers a new level of flexibility and security, providing a cost-effective solution to expand their access control system to medium security doors."
