 Opal One Exeter, which opened in
September, is a short walk from the main campus of the University of
Exeter
Streatham. Student accommodations range from individual studios to
flats for up
to five people, with total 219 student apartments, and many units
contain
kitchenettes and oversized bathrooms. Owned and managed by the renowned
Opal
Property Group, Opal One Exeter boasts a comprehensive security system;
in
addition to VingCard’s advanced VISIONLINE locking system, the complex
features
a substantial closed-circuit television monitoring network.“VISIONLINE is an extraordinarily efficient and reliable locking system, thanks to its online format, ensuring that the students at Opal One Exeter have the safest and most secure university experience possible,” says Christian Hénon, president of ASSA ABLOY Hospitality Europe/Middle East/Africa. “More than just a physical security product, VISIONLINE provides facility management a real-time 360-degree view over the entire locking system—a considerable advantage toward keeping unwanted visitors out.”  VISIONLINE takes the impeccable security for which
VingCard is renowned to a whole new level. Built on the ZigBee Standard
ISO 802.15.4
high-security open platform—the only wireless, highly-secured and open
standards-based platform to address the unique needs of low-power
monitoring
and access-control network applications—VISIONLINE offers increased
reliability
and performance at an affordable cost. Operating on a reliable and
secure
platform like ZigBee also enables smooth interface and integration
opportunities for other online devices, including safes and energy
management
systems.That the technology is always online provides an added layer to traditional electronic locking systems, and is especially valuable for a student environment. VISIONLINE provides a remote audit trail and live access point tracking—valuable intelligence in the event of a burglary or other incident. VISIONLINE also allows for remote battery monitoring, guaranteeing that residents need not worry about being locked out because a lock has run out of power. And optional advanced communication functionality keeps property management officials and security personnel constantly in the loop via automated text message or email.
