Hangzhou Metro Line 4 Deploys Reliable and Secure Solution

Hangzhou Metro Line 4 required a highly reliable and secure access control solution for its new underground line, as previous systems used on other lines were plagued by instability. The operator’s stringent requirements demanded a system that was highly stable, capable of workflow integration, and compatible with a range of equipment.

HID Global implemented a solution using its VertX controllers and iCLASS SE readers, set up in a two-tier distributed network structure. This provided high reliability with redundant communication lanes and strong security. The deployment was completed for all stations in just five months, significantly lowering costs. The HID Global system ensures operational stability and safety, delivering a high level of security and a favorable price-to-performance ratio.
