New "Hands Free" Gate Entry System moves traffic 10 times faster and uses 30% less property

Gated Communities and Parking Facilities are always under pressure to accelerate traffic flow and utilize available property more efficiently – a difficult challenge. The new AMPASS gate entry system from AMTEL reduces property requirements for entry and exit lanes by 30% and moves vehicular traffic up to ten times faster than existing systems.

The conventional gate entry systems require a center island for installation of the card reader and therefore, even the most common, One Lane In / One lane out, system configuration requires over 26 feet across. The same configuration in AMPASS system requires only 18 feet across since the RF-ID tracking technology used in AMPASS does not require a center island.

The conventional systems require the vehicle to stop, open the window, present the card and then proceed. AMPASS systems do not require the user to do anything. As soon as the vehicle approaches the gate, the RF-ID tag is automatically read, the gate opens and the vehicle can proceed without stopping. This whole process takes 2 to 3 seconds per vehicle, compared to 15 to 30 seconds for conventional systems!

AMPASS is designed for easy, cost-effective installation and servicing, since all system components are located within the gate housing, eliminating complex multi-part installations.

AMPASS system is also designed for easy management and administration from a local or remote PC and can be used in both manned and unmanned locations.

AMTEL has been a leader in parking, access controls and security solutions for over 30 years. For more information visit http://www.AMTEL-security.com/
