Videx Security's new Portal Plus is a networkable access control system with Windows based programming and management software. It can support up to 15000 users and an unlimited number of entrances.

The Portal Plus allows great flexibility in the design and installation of an access control system, having a modular design and facilities for proximity, bio-access and coded access readers. A range of readers are available, all with the same robust design and including an illuminated "touch to exit" switch.

Proximity reader modules are also available for the Videx 4000, VR4K and VR series entrance panels allowing full integration with an intercom system.

The Portal Plus is based on two door controllers - available with or without integral 3.5A switched mode power supply - and including an RS485 bus that will link up to 64 doors (32 controllers). In addition, an optional integral Ethernet connection (TCP/IP) is available allowing controllers to be connected to an existing LAN or WAN with the potential expansion to an unlimited number of doors.

The system includes distributed intelligence, allowing the systems to continue functioning even during times of network problems. Both anti pass back and mantrap options are available as standard as are free inputs and outputs that can be programmed according to the user's needs.

The user friendly Windows based software allows the addition, editing or deletion of users and includes finger print enrolment integrated into the software. Using this in conjunction with the desk mount USB finger print reader, eliminates the need to enroll a user twice.
