Altronix Showcases Entrada Network Access FACP Adapter Kit with Emergency Egress at ASIS 2015

Altronix is demonstrating its Entrada2DMK Network Access FACP Adapters at ASIS 2015. These adapters provide a supervised fire alarm interface, enabling network door controllers to release locking devices in a fire alarm condition while maintaining PoE to network door controllers and readers.

“The Entrada2DMK Network Access FACP Adapters enable network door controllers to interface with fire alarm control panels providing emergency egress. This is accomplished without the added cost of running additional cables, and having to deploy more power supplies and fire relays,” said Alan Forman, president, Altronix Corporation. “These adapters also isolate lock power from the network door controller, providing a cleaner and safer installation.”

The Entrada2DMK kit includes one Entrada2DMR Receiver and an Entrada2DMT Transmitter. These PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) compliant adapters route PoE to the network access controllers and provide selectable 12VDC or 24VDC power output for up to two strikes or mag locks. A single FACP connection links multiple Entrada units to accommodate network door controllers. Additional features include built-in overload protection and electronically filtered and regulated outputs. Entrada2DMK is compatible with the AXIS 1001 Network Door Controller, as well as other manufacturers’ network door controllers

Entrada2DMK is UL listed in the U.S. and Canada for Access Information Technology Equipment, and is CSFM and CE approved.

As with all Altronix products, the Entrada2DMK IP Network Access FACP Adapter is made in the U.S.A. and carries a lifetime warranty.
