Multifamily house with several floors
In a "ABB-AccessControl" system the main entrance and the entrances to the apartments in a
multifamily house are equipped with "Electronic cylindrical lock"
Aside from the "Electronic cylindrical lock" a "Smart Access Point Pro" is necessary for the user
management.
The ceiling of the floor greatly reduces the transmission range of the radio signals. That is why
the additional use of an "RF/IP Gateway" is required for the distribution of data for each
additional floor.
– The "ABB-AccessControl" system in this example is not networked with other systems. A
PoE switch is required for the use of an "RF/IP Gateway". The power for the "Smart Access
Point Pro" and the "RF/IP Gateway" is supplied via the PoE switch.
The distances within a floor are within the radio range of around 10 meters. That is why
additional devices to increase the range are not required within the floors.
