E-Plex 7900 Series for Partner Integrations

The dormakaba E-Plex 7900 Series for Partner Integrations is a heavy-duty wireless electronic lock with an integrated radio frequency identification (RFID) reader, built for performance in cylindrical, mortise and exit trim applications. Through application programming interface (API) integration it is compatible with leading third-party access control software platforms, so E-Plex 7900 partner integrations offer the function and reliability customers expect from E-Plex products.

The lock hardware is BHMA/ANSI Grade 1 for cylindrical, mortise and exit trim, with mechanical key override options (Ilco KIL cylinder, or BEST small format interchangeable core (SFIC) and equivalents), and runs on a simple, secure and reliable wireless system: up to 100 gateway hierarchies per network, with up to 100 locks per gateway hierarchy.

Models are available for a designated list of credential types, so the E-Plex 7900 can be trusted in many access control environments:

  • MIFARE (CSN with public key)
  • Proximity (125 kHz)
  • HID iCLASS Seos public key (plus CSN public key)

  • BHMA Grade 1 lock hardware for cylindrical, mortise and exit trim applications
  • Integrated RFID reader models for MIFARE, 125 kHz proximity, HID iCLASS Classic, SE and Seos, and Farpointe Conekt BLE credentials
  • Mechanical key override options: Ilco KIL cylinder or BEST (SFIC) and equivalents
  • Alkaline batteries (4 AA) with battery life up to 1 year and a low battery indicator in software and on the lock
  • Lock memory stores 30,000 audits and up to 10,000 users

Functionalities

E-Plex system guidelines

E-Plex 7900 systems can support up to 100 gateway hierarchies per network.

Per gateway hierarchy

  • Up to 100 locks per gateway hierarchy*
  • Up to 32 locks connected directly to the gateway
  • Up to 8 repeaters per gateway, with up to 32 locks connected per repeater
  • Locks can be up to 2 hops (2 repeaters) from the gateway; example: Gateway, Repeater 1, Repeater 2, Lock

*Note: total hierarchy limit of 100 locks per gateway. While it is technically possible to create a larger hierarchy than 100 locks, dormakaba strongly recommends limiting a gateway hierarchy to 100 locks or fewer to ensure performance and reduce system overload and lag.
