Server Cabinet Locks Enable Forsythe Data Center to Offer Individualized Access Control with Accountability
The KS200 Series Integrated Wiegand Cabinet Locks extend access control to protect data center assets from intrusion and expensive downtime, by bringing real-time access control in a single-card system to individual server cabinet doors. With multi-technology reader capabilities and mechanical key override, the KS200 locks integrate easily with existing electronic access control systems.
“Our customers absolutely love the lock technology, the data we can provide, and the fact that physical keys no longer have to be controlled or managed,” said Keith Zurawski, Director of Data Center Operations at Forsythe.
With more than 200 locks installed, Forsythe is using the KS200 cabinet locks to strengthen access control in several different ways. From the smaller meet-me rooms to the large telecom rooms, each cabinet has different networking within it, often with different service providers needing access.
“Forsythe is a forward-focused and dynamic customer with the best interest of their clients always driving their business model,” said Chris Hobbs, Business Development Leader, ASSA ABLOY. “It’s exciting to work on something new that will really make a difference in the business success of our customers.”
