The New Highpower 8000 Door Control Platform includes the new 8000 Series Door Controller and the Highpower Management System Enterprise Software (HMS). The 8000 is our newest, premium access control system.

Designed with IT departments in mind, the new hardware and software has features and design philosophies that make installation simpler than traditional access control systems, yet can be scaled over large facilities.  The system leverages the power of Microsoft SQL 2005 database to scale to larger numbers of doors and cardholders than traditional access control systems.  Up to 10,000 users per door can be present in the system and the system can be scaled up to virtually unlimited numbers of doors.

The new 8000 Series door controller provides unmatched ease-of-installation by incorporating new 802.3af compliant Power-Over-Ethernet (POE) technology and on-board TCP/IP Ethernet communication.  The advanced low power design of the 8000 board and POE circuitry provides enough auxiliary power (900mA @ 12V) to supply not only the controller itself, but two proximity card readers AND two electric strikes.  This eliminates the need for external power supplies, high voltage circuit installation and complicated wiring.   If POE is unavailable on your network, you can optionally power the controller using a plug-in wall transformer.  See the 8000 Hookup Diagram for a typical installation using electric strikes.

The 8000 controller can also handle virtually every popular proximity, barcode and mag-stripe card format as card formats are fully programmable and card IDs are alphanumeric.

Each 8000 controller kit can operate two doors.  The kits come packaged with two P-300 proximity card readers, an enclosure and manual.  You can optionally order kits with barcode readers, mag-stripe readers or combination readers. Since each kit communicates on your computer network, the kits become linked together and managed with the Highpower Management System Enterprise software (HMS).
