Avigilon Launches the Access Control Manager Embedded Controller for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises

Easy-to-install solution seeks to address mass market business needs; will be demonstrated at 2015 ASIS International trade show

VANCOUVER, Sept. 14, 2015 /CNW/ - Avigilon Corporation ("Avigilon") (TSX:AVO), a leading global provider of end-to-end security solutions, today introduced the Access Control Manager (ACM) Embedded Controller to its innovative product portfolio. Avigilon will demonstrate the new cost-effective and easy-to-use access control solution at the ASIS International trade show booth #3027 in Anaheim, California, September 28 – September 30, 2015.

The ACM Embedded Controller is a browser-based application that directly runs on HID Global's VertX EVO® V1000 control panels, removing the need for a separate controller and server. This design eliminates costly server components, simplifies installation of the system and enables operators to access the system from any location via the internet.

Designed specifically for small and medium-sized enterprises, the ACM Embedded Controller is easy to install and deploy. This device is ideal for organizations such as educational facilities, property management companies, healthcare clinics, retail locations and other facilities designed with 16 doors or less.

"Small and medium-sized enterprises make up the majority of the global access control market, yet many access control solutions cater to large-scale enterprises," said Avigilon's Chief Technology Officer and Senior Vice President, Dr. Mahesh Saptharishi. "The ACM Embedded Controller provides a unique physical access control solution specifically for this market that is easy to install and use, allowing for a low total cost of ownership."
