Vandal-resistant outdoor fingerprint reader

August 2012 Products & Solutions

Suprema has launched the BioEntry W, an IP-based fingerprint access terminal featuring a vandal-resistant and waterproof structure. With its rugged IP65/IK08 certified protective structure, BioEntry W is designed for outdoor installation and harsh operating environments. Packed in a mullion-sized body, BioEntry W features.

For outdoor installations, BioEntry W offers class-leading dust and water protection. It features an IP65 certified body structure with an operating temperature range from -20°C to 50°C. BioEntry W also features a superb IK08 certified vandal-proof structure which protects up to five joules of impact. The device’s rugged housing is made of specialised heavy-duty Lexan resin and its outer shell thickness is double that of ordinary access readers.

BioEntry W provides easy installation and network connectivity by TCP/IP and PoE (Power over Ethernet) for true IP-to-the-door access control by wiring a single CAT5/6 cable for both network and power. The device also provides RS-485, Wiegand and an internal relay for direct lock interface.

The design of BioEntry W is focused on satisfying both aesthetic and practical aspects. It features a 3D dotted pattern on the front and a multi-colour LED indicator and metallic silver finish on rims. Measuring 172 mm in height and 50 mm in width, the device is perfectly designed to fit mullion type installations.
