ZKTeco FaceDepot 4A Face and Fingerprint Biometric Attendance Machine

Overview

The ZKTeco FaceDepot 4A is an attendance machine with door control that recognises staff by face, even in low light or wearing a mask, or by a fingerprint sensor set into the glass. It reads a face in under 0.35 seconds from 0.3 to 2 m and holds 10,000 faces and 10,000 fingerprints. It suits a factory gate, office reception or site office where one wall unit has to handle both attendance records and door release, and options for 4G and PoE (Power over Ethernet) help where cabling is limited.

Is it right for you?

• It suits up to 10,000 staff who need face or fingerprint, with card as an option.
• It suits a dim entrance: the 2 MP WDR (wide dynamic range) camera works in dark or low-light conditions without a supplement light.
• For a place with no network cabling, the optional 4G module connects it over the mobile network; the optional PoE takes power and data over one cable.
• It is for indoor use, rated 0 to 45 °C.
• For staff who wear masks, fingerprint or card is the better choice: masked face verification raises the false acceptance rate.

Key features

• Face recognition in under 0.35 seconds at 30 to 200 cm (ZKFace V6.0) and fingerprint in under 0.5 seconds (ZKFingerprint V10.0) through an in-glass sensor.
• Four ways in: fingerprint, face, card or password on a virtual keypad.
• Holds 10,000 users, 10,000 faces and 10,000 fingerprints as standard, 10,000 cards as an option, and 100,000 transactions (200,000 as an option).
• Card options: 125 kHz ID (EM or HID Prox), 13.56 MHz IC, or a dual-frequency module covering ID, IC and DESFire EV1/EV2.
• 4.3-inch colour touch screen (480 x 800), quad-core 1.2 GHz processor with 1 GB RAM and 8 GB storage on Linux.
• Wiring for Wiegand input and output, ZKTeco RS485, electric lock, door sensor, exit button, auxiliary input and alarm output, with a 12 V output; external printer support and photo ID.
• Optional 4G (LTE FDD, LTE TDD, UMTS and GSM), optional PoE to IEEE 802.3af and optional backup battery; Wi-Fi (2.4 and 5 GHz) is announced but not yet available.
• ADMS (network data push to server), work codes, DST (daylight saving time), T9 input, photo and event photo capture, 14-digit user IDs, schedule bell, record query and tamper switch alarm; 193 x 100 x 32.4 mm, 0.402 kg; ISO14001, ISO9001, CE, FCC and RoHS.

What else you need

A 12 V DC 3 A supply, unless you order the PoE option and power it from an 802.3af PoE switch port. For door control, an electric lock, door sensor and exit button, which are ordered separately. A network point, or the optional 4G module.

Installation

An access control installer should fit it. The job involves wall mounting, connecting 12 V DC or PoE, wiring the lock, door sensor, exit button and any Wiegand or RS485 reader, connecting the network or 4G, then enrolling staff and adding it to the software.

Software and licences

Before you buy

• Card technology, 4G, PoE and battery are build choices: confirm the combination with your quote request.
• Masked face verification raises the false acceptance rate; use fingerprint or card for those staff.
• Indoor use, 0 to 45 °C.
