Benefits

Saving you more money

Drastically reduce installation and startup costs while upgrading features with iSTAR Edge G2. It can directly replace its predecessor, iSTAR Edge; the hardware configurations and connection points remain the same, and the same iSTAR enclosure can be used, too.

An effortless upgrade

Hardware, firmware and software can be effortlessly upgraded thanks to features based on pre-existing Edge controllers. They include a 1.2GHz dual core CPU, advanced firmware features such as OSDP, clustering, intrusion zones and keypad commands, panel-based event logic, area controls and ample spare memory for future needs.

So much flexibility

iSTAR Edge G2 controllers provide a variety of power sourcing options for two doors. They offer a choice between a 12/24VDC local power source or iSTAR Edge G2’s unique PoE / PoE Plus plug-in module, which provides cost savings and ease of installation.

Reliability always

iSTAR Edge G2 is designed to be a true standalone appliance, providing uninterrupted door controller functionality if communication with the host system is lost.

Cybersecure at the core

The advanced, hardware-based cybersecurity protection utilizes the Trusted Execution Environment, a secure, isolated environment within its CPU that runs in parallel to the main Linux OS. This guarantees confidentiality and the integrity of the code and data loaded within the device.

Scalable and expandable

iSTAR Edge G2 controllers offer expandable inputs and outputs using I8 and R8 modules, with the ability to connect as many as eight of each module per controller.
