Count Me In LLC of Mount Prospect, Ill., a biometrics manufacturer, wanted to offer its customers an easy, affordable way to implement USB finger-scan devices and relays for access control. The company’s primary obstacle was eliminating the expense of installing a PC biometrics terminal at each doorway. They also wanted to utilize the Ethernet infrastructure already in place at customer sites.
“Digi enabled a more cost effective and flexible solution,” said Neal Katz, vice president of Count Me In LLC. “We extended our technology’s use by implementing the AnywhereUSB in conjunction with our Door Monitor access control system. This allows us to take advantage of a building’s existing wiring and go into areas where PCs are not conducive. Our Door Monitor is now of value in increased applications, and the cost to our customers is reduced.”
