AMAG Technology joins cadre of leading TagMaster-compatible access control systems


Tacoma, Washington | October 4, 2010 - TagMaster North America, Inc., the leading provider of long-range and high-performance Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems for Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) is proud to announce that AMAG Technology has successfully conducted testing of TagMaster LR-series Long-range Readers with its Symmetry door controllers, joining a growing cadre of market leading TagMaster-compatible access control systems.

Test results affirm compatibility of the TagMaster LR-6 Reader with AMAG’s family of proximity readers and door controllers (including the Symmetry EN-1DBC Power over Ethernet one door controller, a ground breaking IP-based access control solution), two product lines among several that comprise the Symmetry Security Management Solution, a unified building security solution. The reliable performance and long-range capability of the LR-6 Reader (up to 40 feet, exceeding product sheet specs) was also confirmed with high confidence levels. Additionally, the ability to gain building access and parking access through the use of only one card – the TagMaster S1260 CombiTag – was put to the test, using AMAG’s proximity readers, and handily met expectations.

Using next-generation TagMaster RFID technology, in tandem with AMAG Technology’s innovative line of door controllers, vehicles gain fast and convenient parking access, completely hands-free, without causing the driver to stop, open the car window, fumble to search for the card and position it in a specific direction relative to the reader.

TagMaster NA continues to provide more options for system integrators, OEMs and end-customers alike to benefit from next-generation RFID AVI and people access solutions.
