WAVECONN SELECTS ILOQ AS ITS SMART-LOCKING PARTNER

Waveconn is an innovative developer and investor in Australian telecommunications infrastructure. The company has been an early adopter and innovator of digital locks for telecommunications infrastructure with the first solution deployed in 2017.

iLOQ’s solution features the first lock cylinder on the planet to harvest operating energy from the NFC field generated by a smartphone for unlocking. This innovation takes batteries and excess wiring out of the equation ensuring zero maintenance, minimizing lifecycle costs and eliminating battery waste.

Key-free security
As an integrated part of the Waveconn Access Permits System, access rights (‘phone keys’) for opening the lock cylinders are sent to iLOQ’s app running on the end user’s smartphone. This makes the solution also entirely keyless. There’s no need for employees or site operators to carry around huge bunches of physical keys or to travel between work sites and administration offices to pick up and return keys. This optimizes workflows and reduces travel-related environmental impact.

Locking system administrators can update or block access rights remotely and in real-time using iLOQ’s cloud-based SaaS platform. This eliminates security risks involved with lost, stolen, or unreturned keys, reduces unauthorized access, safeguards on-site equipment and promotes personnel safety.

The partnership marks the first deployment of iLOQ in Australia and reflects the continued leadership of both iLOQ and Waveconn.
