CEM Systems - the provider of access control solutions

sDCM 300 (Intelligent Door Controller)

The sDCM 300 (Door Control Module) is a low cost, two-door controller designed to interface third-party read heads with the CEM range of access control systems.

The sDCM 300 communicates with the host system via RS485 communications to an S9032/64 serial controller or by TCP/IP using the Ethernet Communications Module (ECM). Using a powerful 32bit processor, the sDCM 300 gives full off-line validation and decision making at the point of entry, even when host communication is not available.

The sDCM 300 supports most third-party access control read heads conforming to the physical Wiegand/Mag Stripe (data/data) interfaces covering a range of technologies, for example RF Proximity. Customised solutions are also available using two high speed serial RS485/RS232 interfaces to support non-standard devices such as, read/write smartcards and crypto modules.

The sDCM 300 supports two door configurations. It can either be configured for two read heads on two separate doors, with optional Exit push buttons, or can be configured to support an Entry/Exit configuration for bi-directional control on a single door.
