What this video covers
Entría controllers
Entría is the controller family, available in wired internet and cellular LTE versions so the same model line works whether or not a network reaches the door:
- 4-Door Controller, scalable access control with camera support. The camera version connects over ethernet with no separate router needed.
- Single Door Controller, Enclosed, for one door or gate in its own housing.
- Single Door Controller, Mullion, a wired internet controller sized to mount in a door frame.
- Elevator Controller, restricting access to designated floors.
OmniPoint wireless access control
OmniPoint is point-to-multi-point: one gateway controlling up to 50 entrances, each as far as a mile away, over long-range wireless rather than data wiring. It works with any 26-bit Wiegand device and drives door locks, gate operators, and overhead doors.
This is the answer for the openings that make a wired quote painful: outbuildings, far gates, amenity doors across a large site, and retrofits where trenching is not realistic. Each entrance needs power and local wiring to its own reader and lock, and nothing more.
CG Readers & Credentials
CG Readers & Credentials integrate with every CellGate solution, so the choice of reader is about the opening and the people using it:
- Infinity, QR, Bluetooth, and a backlit keypad in one unit.
- Halo, a slim touchless reader with Bluetooth contactless entry.
- Digit, a numeric keypad with a prox reader.
On the credential side: QR or PIN Codes for visitors, Bluetooth contactless entry for residents and employees, and encrypted DESFire® EV3 or HID credentials where a property needs the stronger option.
One login for all of it
Controllers, readers, and credentials all report to the TrueCloud Connect platform. Credentials are issued and revoked in one place, schedules and restrictions are set once, and every access attempt lands in the same timestamped log regardless of which device saw it.
Day to day, the CellGate app carries the same control in a pocket: open an opening, check its status, or issue a pass on the spot.
Choosing wired or wireless, opening by opening
Here is what sets CellGate apart: it is the only company in the industry with dual-network flexibility. That means the decision is made per opening rather than per property. A lobby door with a network drop takes a wired controller, the gate four hundred feet out takes cellular LTE, and the outbuilding at the property line takes OmniPoint.
All three end up in the same system, under the same login, with the same records.
“Wireless where you need it. Wired where you have it.”

Common questions
Which controller belongs on which opening?
One door or gate takes a single-door controller, enclosed or mullion depending on the mounting. Four openings in one area take the 4-Door Controller, which also supports cameras. Floors in a building take the elevator controller. Openings too far to wire economically go to OmniPoint.
Do existing cards and fobs have to be replaced?
Often not. OmniPoint works with any 26-bit Wiegand device, and many existing cards, fobs, and RFID credentials can be imported into TrueCloud Connect rather than reissued.
Can wired and wireless openings share one system?
That is the point of dual-network flexibility. Wired internet controllers, cellular LTE controllers, and OmniPoint entrances all report to the same platform and are administered through one login.
Scoping it for your property
Every property has openings that are easy and openings that are not. Contact your local dealer or a CellGate security specialist to work through which controller, reader, and credential belongs at each one.
