ID Connect/Asset
A light, compact intelligent Device/Tag that was designed for locating or tracking people or assets. Its technology connects to anchors spread throughout the environment that send information in real time to MPA Management (web Management). With the Connect/Asset ID in use it is possible to create alerts for non-authorized access, entries into high-risk zones, dangerous approximation to machines, and large gatherings, among others.
RTLS Anchors
The “anchors” are fixed devices, generally positioned on the ceiling, that serve as a reference for estimating the position of badges, tags or beacons and send the information to MPA Web Management. The average communication range for the badge/tag is 131 feet (40 meters), and each anchor can simultaneously monitor 50 Connect/Asset IDs.
MPA Web Management
It is in the MPA Management that managers of operations, maintenance, workplace security, quality or infrastructure are able to monitor the badges and tags used in the facilities. This tool makes it possible to measure pre-established indicators, verify a history of activities, register collaborators, machines, sectors, see heat maps, manage access, establish risk factors at locations and much more.
MPA Local Server
A local server to securely store, centralize and organize all the data generated by the MPA devices (badges, anchors and tags/beacons and MPA Management).
