The Best Security Technology Innovations of 2016

Boucherle’s Pick: Schneider Electric Access Control

AccessXpert is the latest offering by Schneider Electric for a modern access control product to migrate campuses from their aging Continuum access control line, which for its time was solid, but a challenge to program and implement. The company turned to Feenics to design the new offering, which was a smart move. It incorporates thoroughly modern, cloud-based technology that is feature rich and offers channel partners a competitive product.

More importantly, it offers a clean migration path for legacy systems; probably fully functional in early 2018. As markets are crossing over the merging building management systems with physical security solutions, the integration with Schneider Electric and its SmartStruxure offers new levels of true building integration. AccessXpert provides building owners, managers and security personnel with anywhere, anytime mobile access to video surveillance, intrusion detection, access control, alarm management and other systems.

By using open standards to merge security with the Smart-Struxure building management system, AccessXpert helps enable clearer decisions, faster responses and maximum facility efficiency. This product should simplify innovative integrations without the typical customization. Integration with Pelco (Schneider brand) VideoXpert offers some additional integration options. www.schneider-electric.com
