Kantech KT-APERIO-A061 Wireless Access Controller
Overview
The Kantech KT-APERIO-A061 is a wall-mounted wireless access controller that manages up to 64 doors using NFC/BLE credential technology, eliminating the need to wire individual doors for credential readers. This solves the retrofit installation problem: buildings where door access control retrofit costs are driven by wiring labor can instead deploy wireless cylinders to existing doors and manage them centrally through a single KT-APERIO-A061 hub. Operates on 24VDC power (PoE-compatible), supporting up to 1,000 user credentials.
Compatibility
The KT-APERIO-A061 integrates with the broader Aperio wireless access ecosystem—including Aperio C100 wireless cylinders (single and double knob variants), Aperio L100 wireless locks, and compatible reader plates and strike assemblies. It operates both offline and as part of a networked access control architecture, allowing hybrid deployments where some locations require real-time central management and others operate in disconnected mode. Compatible accessories include reader plates, spindles, strike plates, handle variants (U-handle options), and rubber cover sleeves.
Installation Notes
Mount the controller to a wall surface using the included brackets. Power via 24VDC supply or PoE injection—no separate power infrastructure required if your network supports PoE delivery to the controller location. The wireless communication range and credential synchronization depend on building materials and RF environment; plan pilot testing if your deployment crosses multiple floor levels or includes metal-framed partitions. NFC/BLE readers pair with credentials issued through the management interface—credential provisioning is handled separately through Aperio's administrative console.
