IDENTIV EG-2 (Model 50-40-SB) Beta Version 1.2 Release Notes
Version 1.0 – Beta Release Wednesday, July 5, 2023
IDENTIV EG-2 (Model 50-40-SB) is compatible with Primis and Primis Cloud Version 11.4 Only (Not supported on Freedom or Freedom Cloud)
IDENTIV EG-2 (Model 50-40-SB) Overview
The new IDENTIV EG-2 (Model 50-40-SB) is an IT-based door controller designed to manage all local access control seamlessly while integrating with any existing IT network infrastructure. Powered by 24 VDC or PoE+, the IDENTIV EG-2 (Model 50-40-SB) can connect with any Primis Cloud or Primis on-premise cube, regardless of its location, offering a wide variety of distributed topologies to suit any requirements. While connected to a Primis instance, the IDENTIV EG-2 (Model 50-40-SB) stores all the information required to provide access to its managed doors. In the event of a loss of connection to Primis, the IDENTIV EG-2 (Model 50-40-SB) retains its information, ensuring no downtime in operations or access for cardholders.
