LenelS2, a leading provider in advanced security systems and a Platinum Award Winner in the 2018 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Program, is pleased to announce the company’s BlueDiamond Mobile has been nominated to compete in the 2019 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program.

As smartphones become central to everyday life, Lenel is leveraging Bluetooth® technology to provide the future of access control.

BlueDiamond™ mobile credentialing delivers a smart alternative to plastic badges, offering greater convenience while enhancing security.

BlueDiamond Mobile enables hands-free access to building entrances, offices, meeting rooms, or any door with an enabled card reader.

BlueDiamond multi-factor readers also support virtually all major card technologies as well as mobile credentials using iOS, Apple Watch and Android devices.

BlueDiamond readers provide a cost-effective bridge for a planned migration from plastic to mobile credentials.

These components natively integrate with the Lenel OnGuard® security management system, allowing one-click issuance and management of mobile credentials.

A comprehensive system for mobile credentials

The complete BlueDiamond Mobile offering includes the BlueDiamond Mobile smartphone app, BlueDiamond Mobile Bluetooth/RFID readers and BlueDiamond Mobile credentials, all tied together by the cloud server.

These components tightly integrate with Lenel’s industry-leading OnGuard security management system, allowing one-click issuance and management of mobile credentials.

Readers that support your needs today and tomorrow

BlueDiamond™ readers work with both existing badges and mobile devices to allow easy migration to mobile credentialing.

BlueDiamond readers support a wide range of options from 125kHz and 13.56MHz to mobile credentials.

All BlueDiamond readers feature a sleek, compact design as well as durable, proven electronics.

The BlueDiamond add-on mobile reader can be hidden in a wall or ceiling or installed next to an existing reader.
