ASSA Abloy and MAXXESS Systems announced the integration of MAXXESS Systems with ASSA's range of Aperio wireless locks in the United States.
Aperio will integrate with MAXXESS's eAXxess and Efusion Event Management Software packages. eAXxess is a security management software package that provides multitasking support and flexibility. The open architecture enables users to build a security management system or to integrate with existing card readers and alarm monitoring devices.
eFusion provides security system integration solutions that provide total flexibility and control over a user's security infrastructure, while reducing operating costs. eFusion's 12 applications can collect, transmit, store and process information from just about any object, from security sensors to other security systems to facility management applications.
Aperio will integrate with MAXXESS's eMAX intelligent controllers. The eMAX family of controllers provides enterprise level capabilities with on-board “native” network features. Powerful and scalable, the eMAX platforms offer a flexible, building block approach to system design and configuration. MAXXESS Systems 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.
