System characteristics
The access control system is designed to limit the access of unauthorized persons to sensitive parts of data centers, smaller server rooms, as well
as to individual cabinets. BKT ACS (Access Control System) is a scalable access control system dedicated to 19'' frames. BKT Elektronik offers
cabinets that are factory-adapted to the installation of an access control system. These cabinets have doors equipped with appropriate openings
for mounting card readers and cable paths for arranging the wires. The BKT ACS system can also be applied to any teleinformation cabinets with
a 19'' frame. It is then required to make appropriate openings in the door for card readers and to fasten the cables with, for example, cable ties.
The BKT ACBS access control system (Access Control Bus System) uses devices (controllers and readers) that communicate using the RS485 bus.
The controllers are placed in 1U casings adapted to be mounted in 19'' cabinets. A single controller, depending on the version, can supervise the
operation of up to 16 doors. The number of controllers in the system is unlimited. In the same system, it is also possible to connect controllers
supporting readers with Wiegand interface - BKT ACWS system (Access Control Wiegand System). Both systems use Roger RACS5 devices. This
manual contains basic information sufficient to run the BKT ACBS access control system. More technical information about the devices used in
the system can be found at www.roger.pl/en.

Basic system functionality
•
Supports unlimited number of cabinets.
•
Supports unlimited number of users, subject to a maximum of 8192 per controller.
•
Supports different card standards depending on the reader used.
•
The system may grant access to the door by presenting a card or entering a PIN code (or may require both actions at the same time).
It is also possible to configure the so-called committee entry when two users have to present cards to open the door.
•
Depending on the system, the readers may have an integrated keypad (BKT ACBS) or may be integrated in a cabinet handle (BKT
ACWS). It is also possible to use any reader with a Wiegand interface.
•
Archiving of events in the MS SQL Server or MS SQL Compact database for small installations.
•
Stand-alone operation of the system - without connection to a computer with a database. In such situation, up to 8 million events
can be saved to the controller's internal memory, which will be sent to the computer during the next connection.
•
Independent monitoring of the door status and the status of the handle.
•
Free VISO ST application for system configuration and monitoring.
•
Encrypted communication on the Ethernet network and on the RS485 bus.
•
Email notifications about any chosen event.
•
The system devices meet the requirements of security Grade 2 according to the EN 60839-11-1: 2013 standard
•
The devices are adapted to be mounted in a 19'' frame. They are 1U high.
•
Ease and speed of making connections thanks to the use of RJ45 connectors.
•
BKT 4DC cabinets are available in a version adapted to the installation of access control devices. They have appropriate openings for
the reader and dedicated cable paths on the door.
