Overview
The Suprema BioEntry W2 opens a door with a fingerprint, an RFID card or a phone. Its metal-finished, sealed housing is made for outdoor doors, gates and busy entrances at factories, sites and office buildings.
Is it right for you?
Choose it for an exposed door where people use fingerprints or cards and the device must stand up to weather and knocks. It fits a narrow door frame. It has no screen or keypad, so PIN entry is not available.
Choosing your version
The three versions have the same sensor, housing, capacities and PoE. The only difference is which cards they read.
- BEW2-ODPB: EM and MIFARE-family cards
- BEW2-OHPB: adds HID Prox (125 kHz) cards
- BEW2-OAPB: adds HID Prox and HID iCLASS SE/SR/Seos cards
Pick BEW2-ODPB unless your building already uses HID cards. HID Prox buildings need BEW2-OHPB or BEW2-OAPB; only BEW2-OAPB reads HID iCLASS.
Key features
- Fingerprint matching with live finger detection using infrared and white light
- Credentials: fingerprint, RFID card and phone (NFC and BLE)
- Every version reads EM (125 kHz) and MIFARE, MIFARE Plus, DESFire and FeliCa (13.56 MHz) cards
- Separate capacities: 500,000 users, 100,000 fingerprints for 1:N matching, 500,000 cards and 1,000,000 text logs
- IP67 and IK09 housing, -20 to 50 °C
- Ethernet, RS-485 (OSDP v2), Wiegand in or out, 2 inputs, 1 relay and PoE (IEEE 802.3af)
What else you need
- A door lock, exit button and door sensor (sold separately)
- A PoE switch or injector, or a 12 V DC power supply
- RFID cards that match the card types of your version, if people will use cards
- Suprema BioStar X software to enrol users and set door rules
Installation
It mounts on the wall or a door frame with the supplied bracket. Inputs and relay can be extended with Suprema Secure I/O 2 (sold separately). Fitting by an installer is recommended.
Software and licences
Doors, users and reports are set up in Suprema BioStar X, the on-premises access control software (sold separately). BioStar X licences are sized by the number of doors and users, and time and attendance reports need the separate attendance add-on.
Phone access uses Suprema Mobile Access: users carry a mobile access card in the Airfob Pass app. It is set up separately from the device.
Before you buy
- No screen or keypad: enrolment is done from the software
- Users, fingerprints and cards are separate limits: up to 100,000 fingerprints for identification without a card
- Check which cards your building uses; only BEW2-OAPB reads HID iCLASS
