Cellbris UniSwitch enables keyless entry for doors & gates via cell phone

Tel-Aviv, Israel, Feb. 22, 2005 -- (MobileVillage) -- Cellbris today released UniSwitch, a cellphone-based keyless remote access control and alert system for secured doors and gates.

Once the UniSwitch device is connected to the switch for a gate, door or other device, it operates by receiving calls from mobile phones which act as remote controls. The cell phone remote control works two ways. First, it acts as a keyless entry device by activating doors and gates. Secondly, UniSwitch acts in the place of a smart ID card because users can be identified by their cell phones via caller ID.

UniSwitch has two security options. The Basic option allows any user to dial and UniSwitch opens the gate/door without answering the call. The Advanced option only opens the gate or door once authorized users are identified via caller ID, without answering the call.

UniSwitch can also be set to restrict access to certain groups and certain times of day, for example between 9 AM to 5 PM on weekdays only. An Integrated Alert System includes integrated notification capabilities that can be used to send SMS alerts when certain events take place. For example, it can be programmed to send an alert to security personnel in the event of a failed access attempt whether during business hours or after hours.
