Describe your product's design and/or technological innovation.
Integrators can help eliminate hacking of the Wiegand network by implementing Farpointe's Ranger long range receivers installed in the locked security closet with the electronic access control panels out of harm’s way. Wiegand is no longer considered inherently secure due to its obscure and non-standard nature, a fact unknown to many integrators. One of the biggest threats to hacking the Wiegand data lines are installs of proximity and smart card readers on the outside, unsecured sides of buildings. Even if the reader is fully potted and secured with security screws, it could still be removed exposing the sensitive data lines to troublemakers.Implementing Ranger removes the Wiegand network from harm’s way.
With the Ranger receiver in the security closet, there would be no access readers installed at the door. No Wiegand data lines are exposed to the outside of the building. To enter the facility, the system user presses the appropriate button on the Ranger transmitter to gain access to any exterior entrance at a distance set by the user. The receiver, which is safely installed in the closet, will accept the signal and forward it to the access panel installed in the same closet, which will unlock the door.
Describe the three most important functional features of this product. What sets it apart from other products in this category?
1. Using standard 26-bit Wiegand protocol and featuring standard mounting holes, the WRR-22 and WRR-44 Ranger receivers are easy to use as "add-on" or "wire-in" units.
2. With a custom Wiegand protocol, such as 32- or 36-bit, the long range system can be made even more secure to prevent credential duplication.
3.In addition, the transmitters are secure multiple technology credentials. For long range applications, they utilize a proprietary encrypted rolling code algorithm. They support custom Wiegand security formats.
Describe the benefits that your product provides to the integrator, including value if applicable.
Versus proximity/smart card readers, the 433 MHz receivers use either 2-button or 4-button transmitters to open two or four different doors per receiver from ranges up to 200 feet (61 m). Each button outputs transmitter data over separate Wiegand outputs, yet the receiver installs just like a Farpointe Pyramid Series proximity reader for easy integration with popular card access control systems.
Private labeling is an option. For increased flexibility and user convenience, the transmitters can contain a proximity or smart card module, allowing each unit to be used as a traditional presentation credential.They can be used globally.
