smarti^® ELECTRA a finalist at the Security Excellence Awards

After winning at the IFSEC 2009 Security Industry Awards and receiving the award for innovation from the Slovenian Chamber of Commerce the new smarti^® ELECTRA unit has now been shortlisted as a finalist in the Security Innovation of the year category at the Security Excellence Awards 2009.

At the beginning of this year TAB Systems Inc launched a new biometric unit for access control, time & attendance and building automation called smarti^® ELECTRA. The new unit now received its second major international acknowledgement. First in May it won the Access Control Product of the Year award at the IFSEC 2009 Security Industry Awards and now it has been shortlisted as a finalist in the Security Innovation of the year category at the Security Excellence Awards 2009.

The Security Excellence Awards is run by United Business Media Ltd and supported primarily by info4security, SMT Online and Security Installer magazine. This year’s Security Excellence Awards will mark the 11th year of consistently acknowledging and rewarding the very best operators, consultancies and people within the security industry.

The ultimate winners of the Security Excellence Awards 2009 will be announced at a high profile awards ceremony to be held at the London Hilton, Park Lane, on the evening of Thursday the 22nd October.

ELECTRA, the new smarti^® unit, combines multimodal biometric access control based on facial and voice recognition with RFID, power over Ethernet and a myriad of other features that make it an easy choice for users across a wide range of categories. An indoor unit, ELECTRA can be in wall or on wall mounted and it has an IP-65 compliant front panel. Easy user interaction is made possible by the use of a 5.7'' color touch screen. It does not require a fan for cooling and is thus quiet to operate. It has a built-in camera, speakers, microphone, RFID reader, internal memory and storage. The TCP/IP connector supports power over Ethernet. The integrated communication ports and relay I/O controller can be used to control lights, electronic locks, alarms, sensors etc. The unit can be integrated into existing systems and networked with other ELECTRA units, other smarti^® models and other electronic devices via TCP/IP into a flexible access control system.
