Description

The Highpower 8000 System is a package that includes a control panel and Windows based software. It is usually packaged two proximity card readers as a kit (model P300) as each panel can operate two doors/gates. The 8000 system not only provides access control, but also tracks and manages user information using Microsoft SQL-based database software. The base model includes software to network up to 16 doors (8 kits) but software licenses are available to work with virtually an unlimited number of doors. The 8000 provides the latest in Power-Over-Ethernet technology (802.3af). By using a standard Cat. 5 network cable and a POE enabled network switch, you can both communicate AND power the system through one network cable. The advanced POE features in the 8000 power the controller, the readers and two electric strikes. This POE feature greatly reduces installation time and complexity and reduces the overall cost of the system by elimiating extra power supplies. 1 Year warrany, designed and made in U.S.A. with foriegn components.
