When your customers require OSDP for their next installation, you’ll be ready. DMP announced that all 734 Series access control modules now support both Wiegand and OSDP readers. OSDP stands for Open Supervised Device Protocol; it was developed by the Security Industry Association in 2011 and is now widely considered the gold standard for access control installations. For increased security, OSDP supports high-end 128-bit AES encryption to more effectively prevent the interception of data between modules and readers.
“What this means to you is that someone can’t come in and plug in a laptop or any other device and intercept the communication between the reader and the 734 module,” said Justin Norris, product manager of access control. “With OSDP support, our 734, 734N and 734N-POE modules are one of the most secure access control modules available.”
In addition to the selection of Wiegand card readers, all of the Farpointe readers that DMP offers are fully tested and compatible with the company’s OSDP‑capable modules. Using Farpointe’s Delta Series OSDP readers, security integrators are able to take advantage of the OSDP protocol along with the MIFARE DESFire credential and the higher security that comes with them.
