Paxton, a UK provider of electronic IP access control and door entry solutions, has announced the integration of its networked access control system, Net2, with neaMetric's biometric management application called ProSync. The integration utilizes technology from Suprema, a major global provider of biometrics, and allows seamless connectivity of their access control readers and the Net2 access control platform enabling the straightforward addition of biometrics to the system. System administrators can biometrically enroll users, create biometric tokens in the management software and automatically link user templates to the access control readers. This is all done via the addition of a single function to the Net2 client software.

Frequent upgrades to the ProSync biometric management engine make it ideal for continuously evolving business requirements. New functions and features are also released as they become available, avoiding long, costly product specific development and maintenance cycles. Walter Rautenbach, neaMetric's Managing Director, said: "Paxton delivers an exceedingly effective access control solution which is easy to use and suitable for any size operation. Our benchmark was to keep it easy with an interface that opens up the world of Suprema biometrics within Net2 with no fuss. Although it is nowhere to be seen, our proven neaMetricsProSync engine takes care of all the aspects of biometrics in the background."

Young S. Moon, Suprema's Vice President, said: "This integration is a well-blended combination of state-of-the-art solutions in each category of biometrics and access control. The integrated solution will enable users to enjoy the our biometric authentication solutions under the same access control environments."
And Gareth O'Hara, Paxton's Sales and Marketing Director, added: "Our Net2 access control is built upon the foundations of being easy to install, configure and operate. The wealth of experience and expertise held by these two companies make this the ideal integration for our installers. We hope it provides an ideal solution to suit their needs, and look forward to receiving feedback."
