Integrated access control locks

Locks feature OSDP technology that allows for secure channel and serial communication between reader and PACS

These integrated access control locks feature Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) technology that allows for secure channel and serial communication between the reader and the Physical Access Control System (PACS).

These products were tested and approved by the U.S federal government in conjunction with the LenelS2 OnGuard® access control system, including the LNL-X4420 intelligent controller with the embedded HID® pivCLASS® Authentication Module.

FICAM-approved solutions

We’re excited to expand our suite of FICAM-approved solutions for OnGuard access control system customers,” says Derek Greenland, Director, Federal Government Solutions, LenelS2.

The ASSA ABLOY integrated locks for doors and server cabinets provide high-quality choices for government facilities implementing FICAM controls to protect critical assets.”

Physical access control system

We are excited to be able to offer government facilities more options to expand their PACS [physical access control system],” says Jeff Huggins, Vice President of Government Programs, ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions.

Having these specific integrated OSDP access control locks approved for applications mandated by the Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 (HSPD-12), along with our varying wireless, WiFi, and PoE locking options, make it easier and more affordable to support the use and implementation of card reader technology deeper into each facility, even server cabinet doors."
