CEM Systems has released the OSDP v2 compliant eDCM 350. That’s a two door intelligent IP controller that is designed to interface to Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) compliant smart card readers, which provides a secure encrypted communication channel between smart card reader and door controller.
CEM Systems, part of the Security Products business unit of Tyco, is an HID Global partner supporting a selection of OSDP v2 compliant HID Global card readers.
OSDP is an Open Supervised Device Protocol for peripheral devices. With added Secure Channel Protocol (SCP) specification, it pro¬vides bi-directional communications and advanced security features for connecting to OSDP compliant card readers. With this eDCM 350 (Door Control Module) intelligent internal database, cards can be validated even while offline, ensuring the firms say system uptime. The door controller can be configured to support two OSDP compliant readers on two separate doors with optional exit push buttons, or to support two OSDP compliant readers on a single door for entry and exit control. The controller supports a range of HID’s ODSP v2 compliant readers, including iCLASS SE R10, pictured; R30, R40 and RK40.
Volker Kunz, Sales Director, EMEA with HID Global, said: “HID Global’s OSDP SE reader range can be perfectly integrated with the CEM eDCM 350 (Door Control Module), providing our joint customers a wider range of highly secure solutions. HID Global is at the forefront of developing industry standard based compliant products and the successful partnership with CEM Systems reinforces our leading position in the marketplace.”
