Enhanced Security, Multiple Access Codes for CPI Cabinets

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Jan. 20, 2014 – The demand for cabinet level security has increased for data centers, telecom closets and facilities that house sensitive and confidential data. Chatsworth Products (CPI) now offers Electronic Lock Kits (ELS) to enhance security over standard mechanical and combination locks.

Electronic Lock Kits eliminate the need for keys and provide greater security for cabinets. Access codes can be changed quickly without replacing or rekeying the lock. Each lock can be programmed with multiple access codes and supports three levels of administrative rights, which allows access only rights to different staff members.

"CPI's F-Series TeraFrame® Gen 3, GF-Series GlobalFrame® and ThinLine II Wall-Mount Cabinets can be factory-installed with Electronic Lock Kits, making compliance to the new industry regulations easier, while giving customers the peace of mind that their investment is being secured and customers' data is safe," states Anderson Hungria, Senior Product Manager of Power, Electronics & Software at CPI.

Electronic Lock Kits are available in two models: System 1000 and System 1500. System 1000 is a basic lock that supports three access codes. System 1500 is an enhanced solution that supports 22 access codes and has an optional dual-code mode, which requires two codes to be entered to open the lock. Both models are battery powered and include a low-battery warning LED and external battery override in case the battery fails.

"Most data centers are only concerned with network or virtual protection of data, but physical safety is equally important," Hungria adds.

Electronic Lock Kits are made with the quality you know and trust from CPI. For more information, visit the product webpage. To configure a custom TeraFrame or GlobalFrame Cabinet with ELS installed, use CPI's Product Configurator.
