Southco, Inc., a global manufacturer of engineered access solutions, has introduced an H3-EM electronic locking swing handle with modular access control options.
The company explains the product addresses specialised data centre racks and similar applications, and it allows manufacturers to meet a wide variety of security needs using only a single latch. The H3-EM Modular latch is said to easily integrate with existing enclosures and security systems, so users can easily upgrade to higher security.
Southco states the H3-EM Modular has a variety of access control options, such as RFID readers, that can be freely interchanged and combined to meet any security needs. These devices are mounted independently and secured from behind the door panel to ensure there is no access to mounting screws when the door is closed.
In addition the company continues, those looking to upgrade can easily replace their existing latch with the H3-EM modular latch. Southco says the product uses the same single hole mounting system as a traditional H3 swinghandle latch, to enable dealers to replace the existing latches without replacing the entire door.
The modular access control options the newly announced product provides can be easily integrated into existing systems with plug-and-play functionality. This lets dealers upgrade their clients’ access control solutions quickly, without a major lapse in security.
Southco also points out the benefits that its latest product provides allows original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to easily meet the security needs of any customer using only the H3-EM Modular Electronic Locking swinghandle. Southco concludes through all of this, the result is the product saves time, material costs, and storage space, by simplifying the entire manufacturing process.
