International Electronics' New Line of Access Control Keypads

International Electronics has announced the 2000 Series, a new line of access control keypads offering a great range of functionality and versatility. The 2000 Series Platform offers outstanding value by combining the functionality of IEI's current keypad products.

With the ability to manage up to 500 users, the 2000 Series access control keypads provide complete access control functionality including monitoring the position of the door, controlling lock hardware, and triggering a propped or forced door alert or alarm shunt. Users have the choice of changing the mode of functionality of the 2000 Series keypad to either an independent, stand-alone access control device or as a front-end to IEI access systems and most Wiegand access system controllers.

The 2000 Series will initially be available in the e and eM style products. The e Style keypad is a flush mount backlit keypad and the eM Style keypad is a flush mount durable metal keypad. Functionally, a single 2000 Series keypad has the capability of the 212, 242, and SSW series of IEI keypads. The 2000 Series products will be available for shipment in mid November.

A new expanded output module available with 2000 Series products enables the addition of 8 additional control outputs for a total of 10 outputs. The expanded output connects to the keypad with a 6 conductor connection and can be installed remotely from the keypad up to a distance of 30 feet. The expansion module easily mounts to a double gang plate and can also fit in a double gang box (part number 2000-8EX).

Customers can order the 2000 Series products from any security distributor by using the part numbers "new 212e" for the e style and "new 212eM" for the eM style.

Summary of features of the 2000 Series includes the following:
- 500 users

- Expansion relay module with 8 additional outputs
