Only one gateway kit required per office location. This includes 1 SmartOffice Gateway and 1 SmartOffice Range Exender. Communicates with all wireless devices, including door locks, sensors and MagStrike controllers.
A range extender is used to improve the wireless signal where needed.
This easy to use web application controls user permissions and license management. The SmartOffice Manager is available in a standalone appliance platform which connects directly to your local network and communicates with your cloud-based or on-premise Sangoma phone system for user directory information. It is also optionally available as a software module for on-premise FreePBX/PBXact customers
Each wireless door kit comes paired with one lever or deadbolt lock (with ZigBee Wireless Module included), one door contact sensor, and one motion sensor.
SmartOffice is controlled and operated via the mobile app for iOS and Android.
Employees use the app to gain entry to doors while administrators have the ability to manage hardware devices, configure settings, and receive access notifications.
Setting up new users is easy! Simply use the SmartOffice Manager interface within the phone system to send an auto-provisioning email.
If you are moving into a brand new building location where no door entry system is installed or you are still using physical keys for access, take advantage of a completely wireless door lock setup with SmartOffice.
You’ll need:
Wireless
Locks kit(s) - One door lock kit is required for each door you want SmartOffice to control, wirelessly. Door kits include one wireless door lock, one motion sensor to unlock the door, and one door sensor which sends status notifications back to the SmartOffice gateway.
SmartOffice wireless door kits are offered in various door lock options: external door, internal door, and deadbolt—based on your needs.
SmartOffice Gateway - Controls all the wireless SmartOffice devices in the premises, including wireless door locks, door sensors, and motion sensors. One gateway can control up to 20 wireless doors (including the sensors), which means most small businesses will only require one gateway at their premises.
SmartOffice Manager - Licensed software which installs into your existing PBXact or FreePBX phone system.
Mobile App - Need to operate and control SmartOffice.
If your office already has an existing access control system with maglocks or door strikes, where staff unlock doors using keycards or fobs, you have two options:
Option 1: Continue to use your magnetic locks and door strikes and upgrade to SmartOffice to eliminate key cards and fobs for door access, and replace with the SmartOffice Mobile app
Option 2: Option 1 + Wireless door. SmartOffice works together with existing access control systems so that businesses can migrate to wireless doors
You can also continue to use your keycards and fobs together with any of the above options too!
SmartOffice is supported by North American Sangoma partners who are certified access control integrators and can help with your entire deployment.
