OmniPoint

OmniPoint

OmniPoint is a wireless multi-point access control system that utilizes a hub and spoke methodology.

An OmniPoint Gateway is the communications hub that transmits data to CellGate’s TrueCloud portal via Ethernet, or on AT&T or Verizon’s cellular LTE networks.  The Gateway also communicates locally with up to 100 entry points via LoRa technology.

No long distance data wires are required – the only wiring is for power, and local wires to the card reader and lock.

OmniPoint System Architecture

Product Features & Benefits

OmniPoint

OmniPoint’s Gateway provides connectivity to the TrueCloud portal via cellular LTE or Internet; and connectivity to EPMs or OPSs via a LoRa network. 

OmniPoint Gateway Box Dimensions: 8.5″ height, 8.5″ width, 3.5″ depth, not including antenna(s) or connectors. 

Maximum LoRa range is achieved the higher the Gateway is installed.

An OmniPoint Gateway comes with a 5.8dBi fiberglass omni-directional LoRa antenna, lightning arrestor, mounting bracket and power supply.  

Supports most properties that span up to 1/2 mile, and up to 100 entry points.

Antenna accessories are available.
-Additional 3dBi or 8dBi LoRa antennas
-Cellular LTE directional antennas

 

 

 

Each EPM (entry point module) comes with a choice of internal or external antenna, depending on LoRa signal strength at the individual entry point. 

Each EPM is standard double gang size.

Readily available mounting hardware.

EPM Dimensions: 4.5″ height, 4.5″ width, xx” depth.

EPMs work with any Wiegand 26-bit device.

Ideal for majority of gates, card readers, keypads or wireless remotes.

EPMs can store common restrictions at each entrance.   

If connectivity to TrueCloud is lost, credentials still work.

EPMs can be powered by 12vDC or 24vAC

Compatible with customer’s choice of electronic locks.

 

OPSs (OmniPoint Sensors) are for monitoring status/conditions only, and require no power. 

When the status/condition of a sensor changes, the OmniPoint system can send notifications about that change to whoever is designated.

1st type of OPS is equipped with a magnetic door position sensor.

Tells the TrueCloud web portal if a door is open or closed.  Notifications can be sent to designated personnel when door position changes.

2nd type of OPS is a digital sensor that can monitor lock status, fluid levels, on/off status of equipment, etc. 

Tells the TrueCloud web portal if a door is locked or unlocked, if a fluid level has reached a dangerous point, and whether lights or a piece of equipment is turned on or off.  Notifications can be sent to designated personnel for any of these status/conditions changes.

 

Entire system can be managed through the TrueCloud™ web portal, hosted by Microsoft Azure.

Simple, robust administration.  New users, access with time/date restrictions, alerts/notifications and access log time & date details can all be set up/reviewed via the TrueCloud™ web portal.

Notifications can be sent to designated parties via text or email regarding access attempts at specific entry points or by certain users.

Better security.  Know instantly who utilized an entry point, and when.

Prop open notification: gate/door sensor notifies designated user(s) if gate/door has been left open longer than 3 minutes.

Better security.  Gates and doors cannot be left open inadvertently.

Multiple user tier levels available for varied user and administration management needs.

Allows the administrator to provide only the system functionality each designated user really needs.

Mass import of user and credential data.

Makes initial user setup simple.

Multiple locations can be managed via a single login.

Simple administration of multiple properties.

OmniPoint’s Gateway provides connectivity to the TrueCloud portal via cellular LTE or Internet; and connectivity to EPMs or OPSs via a LoRa network. 

Works on Verizon or AT&T LTE cellular networks for wireless communication from the OmniPoint Gateway to the TrueCloud portal.

Internet hardwired option is also available for wireless communication from the OmniPoint Gateway to the TrueCloud portal.

Allows for utilization of existing internet infrastructure (if available), minimizes recurring costs.

Utilizes LoRa technology for data communication between the OmniPoint Gateway and locally installed EPMs (entry point modules) and OPS’ (OmniPoint sensors).

LoRa is noted for its long range transmission distance, strong signal penetration and high sensitivity.  LoRa transmissions can penetrate glass, metal and concrete.

The CG Installer app is for dealers/installers only; the app works on both iOS and Android smart phones.

Works with majority of smart phones.

CG Installer app allows dealers/installers to activate EPMs while in the field.
