Embedded Mercury Firmware in NXT Controllers Enhances Keri’s Access Control SolutionsKeri Systems has partnered with Mercury Security to bring enhanced capabilities to its Doors.NET and Eclipse.NET customers that use the NXT hardware platform of TCP/IP-based controllers. By embedding Mercury’s firmware in the controllers, a whole new set of features become available for applications with more sophisticated and customized requirements. This broadens the scope of NXT hardware capability such that it makes it a good choice for high-end and Enterprise applications as well as mid-sized projects.
NXT Controllers for Doors.NET and Eclipse.NET applications are available in both standard Keri firmware and Mercury firmware (as an option) versions. Both versions can be used on the same project, with the Mercury-Powered version deployed at the locations that require the extra capability they provide.
“Mercury’s position as an OEM supplier, along with their quality and feature set are well known in the access control market”, says Dennis Geiszler, Vice President of Marketing at Keri Systems. “Other than the differences in system architecture between NXT and Mercury’s respective platforms, the Mercury-Powered NXT controllers are in effect a Mercury panel with almost all of their capabilities. Partnering with them brings enhanced solutions to our customers much sooner than we would have been able to provide with our own firmware development”.
“We were extremely excited to have the chance to collaborate with an industry leader like Keri Systems. Their choice to integrate Mercury’s Open technology into their NXT platform greatly enhances our global reach and reaffirms that Mercury is the industry leader in OEM access control hardware”, said Frank Gasztonyi, Mercury’s CTO and Co-Founder.
