Interfacing 3rd Party Door Controller with Borer's PoE System

The Borer LIM V5 (Legacy Reader Head Interface Module) is a low cost controller designed to interface third-party access control reader heads to Borer controllers.

It delivers a modular and flexible approach in the provision of door access systems in that one reader head can be configured to control several doors or several reader heads can operate one door.

The LIM V5 supports reader heads with Wiegand (Data/Data), Magnetic Stripe (Clock and Data) or Serial RS232 interfaces. This covers a wide range of technologies from RF Proximity to Biometric devices. The LIM V5 also provides full online and offline validation and decision making capability at the point of access.

Features:

• Reprogrammable Firmware with Software Updates delivered over the LAN allows for the access control infrastructure to be updated and new technologies to be added.
• Supports for Access Control Card Reader Technologies including Wiegand, Magnetic Stripe and proximity formats including HID, Mifare, iClass, Legic, EM, Hitag, etc.
• Large Memory that supports up to 120,000 cardholders/transactions.
• Dual Database of Cardholders and Access Profiles with a fall-back to the last known good database in the event of a data corruption as a result of an interruption in the database download.
• Keypad Matrix Interface supports 3rd party keypads.
• Optical Tamper Sensor.
• Press Fit Cable Connectors makes for easy and rapid cable termination.
• Distributed Decision Making allows access decisions to be made by the LIM V5 should the network connection to the central database fail.

Benefits:

• Upgrade Access Control System while retaining the investment in existing card reader heads and card stocks.
• Provides an Upgrade Path to smart card and biometric technologies.
• ‘Plug and Play’ makes for rapid installation and commissioning.
• Low Energy Requirements allows for a number of devices to be connected to and powered by a single PoE technology Lock Manager eliminating the need for a power outlet, power supply and battery at the door.
