1Introduction
The EFC301F is a Linux-based IP access control system combined with a card reader and a
door controller. The series comes in two models, EFC301FR and EFC301FM, supporting ID
card and MIFARE card respectively.
The EFC301F system is designed to control single door, and connect up to two readers. You
can simply connect the system to the network using a Cat 5 cable or through the PoE and to
power through the PoE port. Built-in with an RFID module, the controller can manage more
than 100,000 cards and 1,000,000 event records, and support 2,048 management groups.
The user-friendly electronic map management function makes it easy to manage the access
or events through the Web browser. You can also easily configure the operation using the
keypad on the reader.
•EFC301FR: Supports ID card
•EFC301FM: Supports MIFARE card
