Millennium access control is a security solution designed to protect your facilities and assets safely. It is an enterprise-class system with a low total cost of ownership.

Security
Millennium access controls provides state-of-the-art security technologies with ingenious networking abilities to help protect a wide range of buildings. Access control policies can be applied to a single or thousands of doors across multiple campuses.
An identification thing (proximity card/fob or mobile credential) is assigned to each person who works or lives in a facility to give them access to specific floors at predetermined times. This is the most secure way to grant individuals entry to a building and is an excellent alternative to keying in.
Enhanced security features protect all users, including visitors and unauthorized personnel. These include visual audit logs for all access events, active directory–dual authentication, flexible reporting, and hardware status indicators.
The site control unit is a communications hub and memory buffer that works with Millennium devices (DCD/EDCDs & ECUs). It supports up to 100 DCDs and 4 ECUs on the RS-485 bus.

The visitor management sub-system allows you to grant temporary access to visitors and create schedules to determine the length of time they can remain on-site. This is an excellent solution for rental properties, hotels, and sports facilities.

It also integrates with Rave emergency notification systems. Millennium’s enhanced site control unit (ESCU) supports bi-directional communication with DCD/EDCDs or ECUs through a supervised RS-485 connection.

Geo-Fencing
Our Millennium access controls Ultra visitor management sub-system allows you to grant temporary access to facilities, doorways, and other areas of a site or building for visitors. This feature is easy to set up and can create schedules based on time, day, holidays, and other variables you configure.
Geofencing has become very popular in social media and with mobile devices, offering location-based marketing and ads. Examples include location-based filters for Snapchat and checking in at restaurants on Facebook. It also powers many child locator services and apps, alerting parents when their children leave or enter a specified zone.
However, using geofencing to track people can have privacy concerns. Larsen advises businesses to be transparent with consumers about what information is being collected and how it will be used. He also recommends relying on something other than this marketing strategy to reach your goals and mixing it with content targeting, retargeting, and other methods. These techniques can increase engagement and conversion rates.
