ASSA ABLOY Announces Aperio Integration with RS2 Technologies


New Haven, CT - ASSA ABLOY, the global leader in door opening solutions, and RS2 Technologies, a technology-driven manufacturer of cutting-edge access management hardware and software, announce the integration of RS2 Technologies with ASSA ABLOY'S range of Aperio(TM) wireless locks.

Aperio wireless locks integrate with RS2's powerful Access It!® line of access control software, which includes Access It!® Lite.NETTM, an entry-level, single-user version, and Access It!® Universal, a multi-user, enterprise-wide system. Aperio also integrates with RS2's access management hardware, which is built around its System Control Processor (SCP) family and is based on 32-bit microcontrollers. By combining the power of these resources, users can extend the reach of their access control systems through their existing infrastructure and significantly reduce hardware and labor costs. RS2 will be supporting Mercury Powered Aperio products, making integration into Mercury-based access control systems seamless.

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.

"We're excited to bring this new level of flexibility to our customers," said David W. Barnard, RS2 Director of Dealer Development. "The integration of Aperio Technology with RS2's Access It! Software extends the benefits of access control to more openings throughout a building - increasing security and maximizing budgets."

"RS2 Technologies is a recognized and respected entity in the access control industry," said Martin Huddart, Vice President, Electronic Access Control, ASSA ABLOY Door Security Solutions. "The Aperio integration presents customers with an innovative solution for expanding the reach of their Access It! System to medium security doors and non-traditional openings."
