OSDP was developed to improve interoperability and functionality, enhance security, and address issues encountered by other legacy systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The OSDP standard offers the following advantages over common legacy protocols:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Enhanced security<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prevent &#8216;man-in-the-middle&#8217; attacks with AES-128 encryption that continuously monitors wiring, ensuring that the system is protected against threats. Predefined encryption and authentication processes mean that the guesswork is removed, removing labor costs significantly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Bi-directional communication<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OSDP offers two-way communication between the reader and the controller. As a result, a controller will be able to transmit the information as well as receive it, improving operational efficiency. OSDP also enables remote configuration and management of readers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Interoperability\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being an open standard, OSDP provides freedom to users by allowing them to choose different manufacturers for different elements of their security solution and, in turn, future-proofing their systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>User-friendly<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By using audio and visual feedback and configurable display text alerts, OSDP can provide cardholders with a more intuitive and user-centric experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Other Advantages<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reader to panel cables can run close to 4,000 feet compared to Wiegand\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wiegand_interface\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">maximum of 500 feet<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The OSDP uses 2 wires instead of 12+, which facilitates multi-drop installation, supervised connections to alert of reader errors, and scalability for a larger number of field devices.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OSDP complies with all federal access control requirements and is therefore recommended for use by government or other high-security environments.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; background_color_gradient_direction=&#8221;360deg&#8221; background_enable_image=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;100px||150px||false|false&#8221; da_disable_devices=&#8221;off|off|off&#8221; global_module=&#8221;26066&#8243; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; da_is_popup=&#8221;off&#8221; da_exit_intent=&#8221;off&#8221; da_has_close=&#8221;on&#8221; da_alt_close=&#8221;off&#8221; da_dark_close=&#8221;off&#8221; da_not_modal=&#8221;on&#8221; da_is_singular=&#8221;off&#8221; da_with_loader=&#8221;off&#8221; da_has_shadow=&#8221;on&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; max_width=&#8221;700px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||50px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.10&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">How to Evaluate an Access Control Partner<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">We understand that choosing and integrating an automated security system takes time and has a significant upfront cost.
