Axcess Int’l Integrates HID iCLASS® Smart Card Technology with Long-Range Wireless RFID
Axcess DotTM IDs with HID iCLASS Enable Advanced Workforce Solutions
Axcess International Inc. (OTCBB:AXSI), a provider of intelligent Wireless IDs, has successfully integrated iCLASS 13.56 MHz contactless smart card technology from HID Global into its Axcess DotTM Wireless ID product. Axcess Dot Wireless IDs enable multiple automated security capabilities in and around a facility such as hands-free perimeter access, automated ID checks, visitor and contractor tracking, asset management and emergency evacuation accounting. HID Global is recognized as the trusted worldwide leader in the delivery of secure identity, including physical access control solutions. By combining HID Global’s strength in smart card technology with Axcess’ solutions, a single secure ID can be used to cost-effectively and conveniently solve multiple business problems throughout an enterprise. The product will be on display in the HID Global booth (#601) at the annual American Society of Industrial Security (ASIS) tradeshow in Dallas, TX, October 12-14th.
Axcess’ Dot Wireless ID product is designed to enable existing manual ID solutions to be expanded easily into automated advanced workforce management solutions for improving security, safety, compliance reporting and productivity. Wireless IDs add wireless capability to applications including access cards, visitor badges, property tags and parking passes to provide businesses real time visibility into the location and status of their labor and assets inside their operation. Axcess has integrated iCLASS technology with its DOT Wireless IDs. Axcess International is a member of the Advantage HID Connect® Partner Program, a program offered by HID Connect to help its developer customers generate new business and revenue for their HID technology-enabled products. Through this worldwide network of HID Connect Partners, end-users can easily find third-party solutions that solve business needs through the innovative use of HID technology. The Genuine HID TechnologyTM trademark provides customers with the means to quickly identify third-party products manufactured using genuine HID technology.
Optimized to make physical access control more powerful, iCLASS 13.56 MHz read/write contactless smart card technology provides versatile interoperability and supports multiple applications such as biometric authentication, cashless payment and PC log-on security. iCLASS readers also support the U.S. Federal Government’s HSPD-12 directive for secure credentialing.
“By integrating HID iCLASS technology into the Axcess DOT credential, customers have the ability to leverage their investment in existing access control systems. The combination of these two technologies creates a single, powerful credential that efficiently solves a number of common business problems,” said David Koma, Director, Business Development, HID Connect, HID Global.
“Axcess International worked closely with the HID Global team first to integrate low frequency proximity access control capability and now the iCLASS platform,” stated Ben Donohue, Vice President Development at Axcess. “Axcess is the first company in the world to successfully implement a single, hybrid near-field plus long range wireless credential product. We are excited to have the opportunity to respond to the market’s wishes for the combined products and to work with HID Connect on promoting this new product through the Advantage HID Connect Partner Program.”
