The HID Aero Controller product line provides a complete and fully functional hardware, firmware, software library and tool infrastructure for access control software providers. This product line is ideal for access control providers who do not want to incur the ongoing costs of designing, manufacturing and maintaining panel hardware along with the critical access control logic that commonly resides locally in access control panels. The HID Aero Controller product line is the successor to HID’s VertX® and EDGE®, and is based on HID Mercury technology, a panel technology supporting 4 million+ panels installed globally since the early 1990s.
The HID Aero X300 provides on-board IO support for up to twelve control points and four monitor points. Attach the X300 to an X1100 intelligent controller to perform full access control processing or attach multiple X300s to control more outputs. The X300 serves as a form and fit replacement for the VertX V300
INTELLIGENT CONTROLLER & IO MODULE SYSTEM FEATURES
Highly Configurable
- Change reader modes based on time thresholds, pre-alarm signals, for the benefits of functionality like a global lockdown
- Enable access rights or alerts for specific groups of users
- Create unique situational emergency alerts using highly detailed transaction information and data correlation features
Sophisticated Threat Detection
- Duress signaled from keypad readers will notify the host for immediate action and quick response in emergency situations
- Offline protection against improper card usage via local anti-passback capability
- Ability to monitor supervised input wiring to help identify system faults or malicious attacks
Platform Security
- Encryption of data at rest provides privacy for data on the intelligent controller
- Monitor the health of the intelligent controller on the network by utilizing SNMPv3
- Ensure rogue devices cannot be plugged into the network by using 802.1X to implement port based network access control
Hardware Design
- The Aero X1100 combines the capability of the legacy V1000 and V2000 enabling a simpler approach to installation – one SKU covers both use cases!
- Market leading maximum operating temperature allows for installation in harsh environments
