The Data on card system provides a comprehensive access control solution by combining traditional access control on key access points to update credentials and then the users credential used on the locks updated the locks at their locations for medium to large user base. This system is a middle ground of minimizing full online access points and upgrading just the locking hardware at the remaining access points.
Data on card systems are ideal for multi-family housing, apartments and mixed-use facilities. Where there is a common entrance for updating credentials when entering with many locks through the buildings.
