Securing your future
ZK54 Biometric Access
Control Terminal
The ZK54 is an innovative biometric fingerprint reader for access control applications, offering
unparalleled performance using an advanced algorithm for reliability, precision and excellent
matching speed. The ZK54 features the fastest commercial-based fingerprint matching algorithm and
a ZK high performance, high image quality optical fingerprint sensor. The ZK54 offers the flexibility to
be installed as a standalone terminal or can be connected with any third party access control panel
that supports a Wiegand input. Fast reliable performance combined with affordability gives the ZK54
terminal the competitive edge in the market. Each terminal has got the ability to store up to 1,500
fingerprint templates and 50,000 clocking transactions. The ZK54 terminal has got built-in relays that
can control locks, door sensors, open door alarms and exit sensors. Managing our terminals is very
easy through the ZK access control software which connects to the ZK54 terminals via a TCP/IP network,
RS485 network or by using a USB stick in offline environments.
