ASSA ABLOY announced the introduction of Medeco’s Intelligent Key Cabinet (IKC), a complete key access control and storage solution. Ideal for keys and other assets that require a high level of security and accountability, the IKC is an electronically controlled steel cabinet that requires Biometric Fingerprint, PIN, or Prox Card authentication (optional) for access. Authorized users have access to only specific keys stored in the cabinet. The IKC electronically keeps a record of key removals and returns, by whom and when. IKC is also an essential addition to the Medeco XT Intelligent Key system: it can simultaneously secure and charge Medeco XT electronic keys, ensuring they are always ready for use. For optimum efficiency, an optional add-on programming device allows updates of schedules and access rights to XT keys while they are secured in place. Key management system The IKC secures mechanical keys and assets using exclusive iFob technology “Any key system is only as secure as access to the keys themselves,” said Gene Cronin, Medeco Product Manager, ASSA ABLOY. “With the IKC, facilities can not only control access to keys, but track when keys are removed and returned. Imagine no more chasing down keys - always know who took a key and when. It can even capture a photo of the person removing the key." "Add the convenience of charging and programming XT Intelligent Keys, and it’s plain to see that no other key management system offers the efficiency and accountability of the IKC.” Secure mechanical keys The IKC secures mechanical keys and assets using exclusive iFob technology. XT Keys are secured using a locking XT charging port. Designed for maximum scalability, Medeco’s IKC is available in 32 or 64 port sizes. 32 port cabinets can be configured to store either all XT or all iFob ports. 64 port cabinets can be all XT, all iFob, or a combination of 32 XT plus 32 iFob. The IKC system can grow as business needs grow by adding on additional secondary cabinets in either 32 or 64 port sizes and in a combination of technologies (iFob or XT). Features: Available in 32 and 64 port sizes Available in main and add-on configurations XT and iFob versions Securely stores and charges XT keys (XT version) Identifies XT key serial number (XT version) Fingerprint reader Built-in LCD screen for ID Supports 2 factor authentication Audible and visual alarms SMS messages Email messages Camera for security photo capture Comprehensive Reporting & Analytics Emergency Fob Release System (optional) Wall mount or optional stand
The Medeco XT Dual-Tech retrofit cylinder is designed for accountability and rapid-entry applications Medeco® Security Locks, a division of ASSA ABLOY N.A., introduced its new Medeco XT Dual-Tech Cylinder at the ASIS International 62nd Annual Seminar and Exhibits show September 12-15 in Orlando, Florida. Cylinder TechnologyThe patent-pending Medeco XT Dual-Tech retrofit cylinder is designed for both accountability and rapid-entry applications. It combines two cylinder technologies—the Medeco XT electronic cylinder and the Medeco X4 mechanical cylinder—in one mortise cylinder housing. The Medeco XT electronic cylinder provides everyday access and gives the user full control and accountability by leveraging all of the features of Medeco’s powerful XT Web Manager software. The Medeco X4 mechanical cylinder is ideal for local fire departments because it uses simple and familiar mechanical key technology, allowing rapid entry for inspections or emergency responses. Rapid Entry Applications "The ability to use either the mechanical or electronic key makes this cylinder ideal for any situation where rapid entry is required” “Both cylinders operate independently of one another so access is provided using either the XT key or the X4 key,” said Gene Cronin, Medeco XT and Aperio Product Line Manager. “Having the ability to use either the mechanical or electronic key makes this cylinder ideal for any situation where rapid entry is required.” The Medeco XT Dual-Tech Cylinder uses existing hardware so no hard wiring is required and it retrofits a variety of cylinder formats. Product can be ordered either pinned or sub-assembled for the Medeco X4 cylinder and includes two keys.
