Hardware, Peripheral, and Software Compatibility for Biomax N-BioAccess

Access Control Peripheral and Locking Hardware Compatibility

The Biomax N-BioAccess terminal (SKU: KTI01001002NBAS) is engineered to interface directly with industry-standard physical access control hardware and door automation equipment. Equipped with an onboard output relay, the unit provides switching control for electrical locking mechanisms, including electromagnetic locks (EM locks), electric drop bolts, and motorized door automation systems. The terminal requires a regulated external operating power supply rated at 12V DC, 2A.

For dual-point access tracking and egress management, the terminal provides both Wiegand input and Wiegand output interfaces. The Wiegand input port allows integration with secondary slave readers, enabling bi-directional control on a single entryway. Additionally, the Wiegand output allows the terminal to function as an edge biometric and card credential reader connected upstream to third-party central access control panels. The unit also supports RS-485 peripheral communication lines for dedicated RS-485 slave readers. Supported egress accessories include standard push-to-exit switches, no-touch infrared proximity sensors, and wireless remote release modules. When configured with both an entry reader and an exit peripheral, the terminal supports hardware-level anti-passback functionality to prevent credential sharing and track verified site occupancy.

Credential and Card Technology Interoperability

The device provides multi-credential authentication across biometric templates, RFID cards, and numerical PIN codes. It supports credential matching across three primary formats:

• Optical Biometrics: Integrated 500 DPI optical fingerprint sensor running on an embedded Linux operating platform. It supports up to 10,000 fingerprint templates with a False Acceptance Rate (FAR) of 0.00001%, a False Rejection Rate (FRR) of 0.001%, and a verification response time of 1 second or less.
• RFID Transponder Options: Standard factory hardware natively decodes 125 kHz EM proximity RFID cards. The architecture also provides optional factory support for 13.56 MHz Mifare contactless smart cards, accommodating up to 10,000 card registrations.
• Keypad Credentials: An integrated feather touch keypad supports up to 10,000 individual alphanumeric PIN passwords, entered directly via the terminal's 2.8-inch TFT color screen interface with 16-bit Hi-Fi English voice prompts.

Network Infrastructure and Data Transfer Protocols

To integrate across commercial IT environments, the Biomax N-BioAccess supports versatile host networking options. Network administrators can deploy the terminal over standard local area networks using wired TCP/IP Ethernet or wirelessly over integrated Wi-Fi. In industrial or legacy multi-drop topologies, serial communication can be maintained across an RS-485 bus.

For enterprise-scale, distributed deployments across branch networks, the terminal natively executes real-time Push Data protocols. This protocol continuously transmits punch events and access records directly to central listening servers without requiring manual polling scripts. In locations lacking continuous network connectivity, the terminal provides a USB Host port that allows field personnel to perform offline transaction log downloading (up to 200,000 log records) and user database migrations using a standard USB pen drive.

System Architecture and Software Compatibility Matrix

The terminal interfaces with centralized time-attendance platforms, attendance management databases, and proprietary enterprise software systems. Biomax provides native compatibility with the Biomax DMP Server environment and Smart Office software suites across Desktop, Web, and Cloud deployments. For integration into third-party HRMS, enterprise resource planning (ERP), or custom security systems, a comprehensive Software Development Kit (SDK) is provided, enabling remote user enrollment, user expiration management, and real-time database synchronization over TCP/IP or Wi-Fi.
