Suprema BioStation 2 IP fingerprint terminal: New standard in biometric access control and time & attendance

Along with the launch of new web based open security platform BioStar 2, Suprema has released BioStation 2 to set a new standard in biometric access control and time & attendance. The terminal embeds an all new optical sensor, powerful hardware, and a new exterior to enable ultra-performance in any environment. Combined with the latest innovative features from Suprema, the device offers unmatched benefits to customers looking for a biometric access control and time & attendance solution.

Superior biometrics under any conditions

The new optical sensor can scan and produce clear and accurate fingerprint images in any condition leveraging the new sensor architecture and innovative features. Conditions that may affect fingerprint capture range from wet or dry fingers to external light getting into the sensor. The new sensor incorporates the Adaptive Gain Control feature along with a new sensor architecture for optimal results.

The new exterior of the BioStation 2 is exquisite and crafted with an eye for the detail and will act as a centrepiece to wherever it is installed. The device features full touch capacitive buttons for easy navigation, and the already intuitive UI is further supported with Voice Feedback. An IP65 rating will protect the device from environmental elements such as dust and rain and ensure the device will function in outdoor installations as well as indoors.

Ultra-performance and compatibility

The hardware features a powerful processor and revised memory handling processes. The device provides Instant Matching through which it can match and authenticate fingerprints 3 times faster than previous generation devices. BioStation 2 also provides maximum user capacity of 500,000 with staggering 3,000,000 logs. Furthermore, the large user database associated with the biometric system can now be transferred 30 times faster between server and device using Rapid Data Transfer technology incorporated into BioStar 2 and BioStation 2.

The terminal also supports extensive line-up of smart card technology with support for 125KHz EM and HID Prox, and 13.56MHz MiFare/DesFire/DesFire EV1/Felica/NFC and HID iClass SE. Along with the built-in Wi-Fi and PoE (Power-over-Ethernet) give flexible installation options for the device.
