Software House iSTAR Ultra USTAR016 | 16-Reader Door Controller

The Software House iSTAR Ultra USTAR016 is a top-of-the-line network door controller for businesses that offers top-notch security and scalability. It runs on a hardened Linux platform and can support up to 16 hard-wired readers (or 32 with wireless locks). It was designed to work perfectly with the C•CURE 9000 security management system.

The iSTAR Ultra USTAR016 has a modular design that includes a General Controller Module (GCM) and two Access Control Modules (ACM). This setup lets you manage a lot of doors at once while keeping the intelligence in one place. It can handle 500,000 cardholders and has 256-bit AES encryption built in, making it the standard for places with high security.

Key Features and Security Advantages of the USTAR016

• Hardened Security: It runs on a custom-hardened Linux kernel, which makes it much harder for cyber attackers to get in.
• High Capacity: It can store up to 500,000 cardholders in local memory, thus it will keep working even if the network goes down.
• Two Gigabit Ethernet ports: These ports allow for redundant network connectivity, which keeps the system online even if one port or cable fails.
• Flexible Reader Support: Works with standard Wiegand, RM, and OSDP Secure Channel readers, as well as built-in wireless locksets from Aperio and Schlage.
• Integrated Intrusion Zones: With built-in intrusion features, you can keep an eye on alarms and respond to them without using a separate third-party intrusion panel.
• Global Anti-Passback: With advanced peer-to-peer clustering, controllers can talk to each other directly to enforce anti-passback regulations all around campus.

Industry Applications for 16-Reader Controllers

1. Government and Military: Federal buildings must meet high-security PIV/FIPS 201 standards.
2. Healthcare: Keeping track of sensitive areas, pharmacies, and patient record rooms with rigorous audit trails.
3. Data Centers: Backup networking and encryption to keep important infrastructure safe.
4. Higher Education: Using clustering and wireless lock integration on a large scale for dormitories on campus.
5. Enterprise Corporate Offices: Access control that can grow and handle high-density readers on multiple floors.
