Speco Technologies SGACL Access Control Integration Module
Overview
The SGACL is a compact access control integration module that bridges traditional access control systems with IP-based security infrastructure. Deploy this when your facility needs to synchronize badge readers, door locks, and alarm logic into a centralized IP security ecosystem without replacing existing hardware. The module draws power via PoE (802.3af), meaning no separate wall-mount power supply — it rides the same network cable as your IP cameras and NVR.
Compatibility
The SGACL integrates with Speco Technologies security systems and IP-based VMS platforms that support standard access control protocols. Built-in microphone support allows you to pair this with audio-capable IP camera systems and voice communication workflows. Verify your existing NVR or video management system supports the access control protocol before deployment — not all VMS platforms handle real-time door event logic equally.
Installation Notes
PoE power delivery via 802.3af means the module draws under 13W, so it will not strain a standard network switch's power budget. Mount in a secure indoor location near your access control panel or switch. Ensure the network path between the SGACL and your VMS includes proper VLAN segregation if you separate security traffic from general IT — access control events should not traverse untrusted network segments.
