C3-100/200/300
(IP-based Door Access Control Panel)
C3-100/200/300, Its an Open technology to provide management, real-time monitoring, and control of your access control system-all from a browser, with no additional software to install.
Our secure Web-hosted infrastructure and centralized online administration reduce your IT costs and allow you to easily manage all of your access points in a single location. C3 series' versatile design features take care of present and future needs with ease and efficiency. It is one of the most rugged and reliable controllers on the market, with a multitude of built-in features.
The C3 series control panel can communicate at 38.4 Kbps via RS-485 configuration or Ethernet TCP/IP networks. It can store up to 30,000 cardholders. SDK (Software Development Kit) is available for the customer to integrate the controller into existing access control software or to develop new software.

Frequently Asked Questions
The C3 series scales by door count — the C3-100 typically controls a single door, while the C3-200 and C3-300 support two and multiple/four-door configurations respectively, within the same IP-based platform.
Yes, it connects over your network (Ethernet/TCP-IP) rather than requiring dedicated RS-485 wiring back to a central controller, which usually simplifies installation in existing buildings.
The C3 panel is used with readers, exit buttons, electric locks, power supplies, protection boxes and the SRB relay box — all available from BSD Infotech.
