Assa Abloy announces the introduction of its IN120 Wi-Fi lock, combining secure wireless electronic access control with a sleek design. Available from Group brands Corbin Russwin and Sargent, the IN120 reportedly provides a cost-effective solution for facilities needing to upgrade access control. Ideal for use in hard-to-wire locations, the IN120 utilizes standard IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi connectivity to connect to the access control system, significantly reducing installation costs and eliminating the need for proprietary equipment, Assa Abloy reports.

The IN120’s integrated ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 hardware is available in cylindrical and mortise lock configurations.

The IN120 utilizes HID multiCLASS SE technology, which provides heightened security, supports multiple credential types including HID Prox, HID iCLASS, HID iCLASS SE (SIO-enabled), HID iCLASS Seos, HID MIFARE SE, HID iCLASS DESfire EV1 SE, MIFARE Classic, DESfire EV1, and FeliCa, and enables NFC mobile access.

The IN120 supports current Wi-Fi security standards including WEP, WPA, WPA2 and 802.1x and utilizes AES 128-bit encryption. In addition, the WiFi radio is field-upgradeable, making it future proof for evolving Wi-Fi standards.

“Our new IN120 is ideal for budget-conscious applications. Combining low cost and the ability to interface with a facility’s existing IT infrastructure, the IN120 offers the most economical path to upgrade to electronic access control by leveraging an existing network,” says Peter Boriskin, director of product management, electronic access control, Assa Abloy Americas.
