WaveLynx Technologies' Ethos multi-technology contactless access readers were designed from the ground up to help end-users make the transition seamless when going from legacy physical credentials to highly secure smart cards or mobile credentials. Ethos readers enable the use of encrypted smart cards and mobile credentials for access control, all while maintaining functionality with existing proximity credentials. Credential-to-reader security is based on AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) 128 level encryption. By providing a choice of credential technologies that include standard Proximity (125kHz), Smart (13.56MHz) and mobile protocols, customers have the ability to set their own migration path to cyber-resilient credentials. All ET Series readers are fully compliant with OSDP for secure channel and feature a unique capability to Auto-Detect OSDP and Auto-Convert from Wiegand to OSDP without human intervention required at the reader. WaveLynx Ethos Readers are integrated with the Tyco Software House C.CURE 9000 security and event management system, providing 24x7 mission-critical security and safety protection for people, buildings, and assets.
