Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden will have state-of-the art security with ASSA ABLOY’s ARX Access Control System and 1,700 proximity card readers. The new access control system is modern, future-safe and will provide a high level of security at Chalmers.
“First of all, we wanted a modern, future-safe system,” said Ulf Redsäter, property manager at Chalmers Fastigheter. “Second, we wanted a reliable supplier we could be sure would be there in the future. The architecture of the ARX access control system is based on open standards rather than specially designed protocols.”
The system, for a total of 30 properties on the Gothenburg campus, is being installed by Swesafe in three stages beginning this year and ending in 2015. The primary components are the ARX Access Control System and 1,700 Pando Secure card readers, a part of ASSA’s new generation of future-safe readers.
“While developing the Pando card readers, we focused on ease of use, cost-effectiveness in upgrading the readers as technology advances and demands for greater card security,” said Matti Kuismin, business unit manager at ASSA ABLOY.
