The pandemic has caused a global supply-chain shortage of chips used in access credentials. Ordering replacement cards has become even more difficult and may have a huge impact on lead times causing a disruption in your security program. Some MIFARE products may have a lead-time of at least 10 weeks, while other products and a variety of Java Cards are being forecast at up to 26 weeks for chip supply.
It’s time to think about transitioning to a mobile access control solution. AMAG’s Symmetry Blue Bluetooth reader and Symmetry Mobile app provide a frictionless solution that eliminates the need for access credentials.
