Electronic. Flexible. Secure.

ixalo cylinder | RFID

The ixalo cylinder | RFID is an electronic profile cylinder with a modular design that can be flexibly adapted to different door situations – ideal for interior and exterior doors as well as for retrofit applications in existing buildings. VdS- and SKG-certified versions meet the highest security requirements. Management is conveniently handled via the BKS KeyManager, enabling individual access rights to be assigned centrally and, if required, limited in time. The cylinder is optionally available in a weather-protected version.

Thanks to contactless RFID technology (MIFARE Classic® / DESFire®), long battery life and versatile configuration options – such as panic function or double-sided reader function – the ixalo cylinder | RFID offers a future-proof solution for modern access control systems.

ixalo | RFID is individually configured by authorized partners via our MKS system.
