Ethernet-Ready Encrypted 4-Door Controller
The KT-400 four-door controller is a secure and easy-to-use networked access control solution with support for eight Kantech ioProx XSF entry/exit readers. The KT-400 has an on-board Ethernet port that connects to existing network infrastructure and leverages the benefits of IP-based systems. Combine KT-400 with EntraPass security management software to create a highly scalable solution that can be deployed within one building or across multiple locations. The system easily scales from controlling four doors to a million doors and managing millions of cards at multiple locations.
Built-In Expansion
The KT-400 allows connection to expansion modules in order to add inputs or to add outputs such as relays and drain outputs. Combining input and output expansion modules provides the flexibility to connect up to 256 inputs and 256 outputs.
Status Indicators
LEDs provide important controller status and diagnostic information. The KT-400 has multiple LED status indicators for: troubleshooting, network activity, power status and outputs activity.
Easy Network Connectivity
The auto-sensing 10/100Base-T onboard Ethernet port automatically selects compatible Ethernet speeds to provide faster network connectivity. It eliminates the need to purchase an external Ethernet device, saving time and money. The KT-400 uses secure 128-bit AES encryption to communicate with the Gateway.
Removable Terminal Blocks
In order to expedite installation and facilitate serviceability, KT-400 features removable terminal blocks that are simple to connect and are color-coded for quick identification.
Built-in Web Configuration
The web configuration page is accessible through any browser. It can be used to verify and configure the IP settings of the KT-400. For enhanced security, once the KT-400 is configured, the web configuration page can no longer be accessed. The KT-400 can be reset to factory default in the case of a configuration error and the web configuration page will once again be accessible.
Occupancy Level Controls
KT-400 supports occupancy restrictions for four local areas at the controller level with the anti-passback feature. This feature allows the operator to define a particular area that may have capacity limitations, such as an auditorium, conference room, or laboratory. The KT-400 can be configured to limit the amount of people permitted into this area. Once the limit has been reached, no additional personnel will be allowed to enter the defined location. This prevents overcrowding or violation of capacity regulations.
Low Bandwidth Consumption
The EntraPass software monitors events occurring at the doors by polling the KT-400 door controllers. The EntraPass Multi-Site Gateway only communicates with the KT-400 if an event has occurred. Communication integrity is ensured through a heartbeat signal which is sent at regular intervals to the EntraPass system. This asynchronous communication significantly reduces the amount of bandwidth required to manage the access control system over the network. If there is a communication failure between EntraPass and the KT-400, an alarm will be triggered in the EntraPass system.
Supervised Lock Power
There are 4 supervised door lock outputs with an internal power supply (12 VDC). In addition, an external power supply (12 VDC - 24 VDC) may also be used to provide power to the lock outputs. This eliminates the need for additional relays. The lock outputs will still be supervised by the KT-400.
