Smart cards are quickly becoming the solutions of choice for access control in the educational environment


Over the past few years, an increasingly higher number of upper-education organizations have started adopting smart card technology, due to the fact that it grants both staff and students faster and easier access to various facilities, and, in some cases, even specific services (such as library printing, etc.).

Tensor is a market leader in the field of smart card – based access control solutions, our company specializing in delivering cost-effective, solid and reliable solutions for customers involved in a wide array of industry segments, including the educational one.

The Tensor smart cards are based on the reliable RF (Radio Frequency) reading technology, which grants them a very good read range, unaffected by most external conditions. Moreover, all of the cards are extremely thin (roughly the size of a credit card), which means that you can easily store one in your wallet.

Tensor Smart Cards employ an advanced technology, that makes them equally fast and secure. Our Smart Card readers emit a 125 KHz frequency field (the electromagnetic field) that is received by the tiny aerial built in each smart card. This leads to the activation of the smart card microchip, a passive device that holds the smart card’s unique factory encoded ID number.

The Smart Card’s ID Numbers are extremely secure, given the fact that up to 34 billion different combinations are available.

Plus, Tensor can also provide smart card software, which gives you an easy way to professionally produce your own ID cards, assign specific access rights, and much more.

If you want to find out more about our affordable, ultra-fast Smart Cards, our dedicated product team is eagerly waiting for any query you might have.
