RSS3838 Nedap AVI has won a Best Innovation Product award in the Access Control and Visitor Management systems category at the 16th Moscow International Protection, Security & Fire Safety exhibition for its uPass Reach long-range RFID reader. Using the latest in UHF technology, the uPass Reach reader guarantees long range vehicle identification up to four metres. Based on the use of battery free, passive UHF transponders, the reader output allows the access control or parking system to open the gate when authorised without the need for card readers or PIN pads.

Nedap AVI says the uPASS system is a cost-effective and convenient solution for parking access installations such as car parks, gated communities, employee parking access and many more applications. A fully integrated vehicle and building access solution can be realised using the new Nedap UHF hybrid cards. The cards support UHF combined with card technologies used for access control and time and attendance installations, such as HID, EM, Mifare and 3555 Legic.
