UNITYIS® + AXIS COMMUNICATIONS

Network Access Control. Managed Your Way.

UnityIS® integrates with Axis network door controllers to deliver modern, IP-based access control with centralized personnel, credentials, schedules, alarms, and door management.

Open architecture. Edge intelligence. No proprietary head-end.

MODERN ACCESS CONTROL

Move Intelligence to the Door.

Axis network door controllers combine access-control intelligence, storage, cybersecurity, and network connectivity at the edge while UnityIS provides centralized management across the organization.

01 / NETWORK

Native IP Architecture

Connect door controllers directly to the network rather than relying on a traditional proprietary control-panel architecture.

02 / EDGE

Intelligence at the Door

Credentials and event history can be stored locally so the controller can continue making access decisions at the edge.

03 / OPEN

Built for Integration

Axis provides open integration capabilities while UnityIS brings Axis access hardware into a broader unified security environment.

INTEGRATED WITH UNITYIS®

Axis Hardware. UnityIS Management.

UnityIS® manages Axis controllers alongside personnel, access levels, schedules, credentials, alarms, reports, and system activity.

Customers can deploy Axis as part of a new installation or use UnityIS to manage Axis alongside other supported controller brands across the enterprise.

One interface. Multiple hardware platforms. No forced rip-and-replace.

EDGE INTELLIGENCE + CYBERSECURITY

Access Control Designed Like a Modern Network Device.

Axis controllers combine physical access functionality with a cybersecurity architecture designed around secure network communications and protected device identity.

That makes them particularly well suited for organizations where the physical-security network is managed alongside broader IT infrastructure.

Axis Edge Vault Hardware-based protection for cryptographic keys, certificates, and device identity on supported controllers.
OSDP Secure Channel Secure communications between supported controllers and OSDP readers.
TLS Networking Modern encrypted network communication options for controller management and integration.
Edge Storage Local credential and event storage helps controllers continue operating even if upstream connectivity changes.
FLEXIBLE AUTHENTICATION

More Than Cards at the Door.

Axis network access-control architecture can support multiple ways of identifying people and vehicles depending on the connected readers and integrated applications.

Cards & Mobile Credentials

Connect supported OSDP or Wiegand readers for traditional and mobile access-control credentials.

PIN Access

Support keypad-based authentication or card-plus-PIN workflows where stronger authentication is required.

QR Visitor Access

Dynamic QR credentials can support temporary visitor and guest access workflows.

Vehicle Access

License-plate recognition can become part of the access decision for parking, gates, and controlled vehicle areas.

OPEN ARCHITECTURE

Add Axis Without Replacing Everything Else.

One of the biggest advantages of UnityIS® is that the access control software is not tied to one controller manufacturer.

Organizations can add Axis controllers to new buildings, expansions, or individual openings while continuing to manage existing supported hardware from the same UnityIS environment.

Modernize at Your Own Pace.

A legacy access-control deployment does not have to become a rip-and-replace project just because new hardware is needed.

UnityIS can provide a migration path where new Axis controllers coexist with existing supported access hardware while users continue managing the environment from one platform.

WHERE IT FITS

Network Access Control for Distributed Environments.

The combination of UnityIS and Axis is especially useful where organizations need scalable access control across multiple doors, facilities, and locations.

Corporate

Manage offices, tenants, common areas, and secure spaces from a centralized platform.

Education

Deploy network access control across classrooms, administrative buildings, labs, and campuses.

Healthcare

Protect clinical, administrative, pharmacy, and restricted areas across medical facilities.

Stadiums & Venues

Control suites, offices, operations areas, gates, and secure spaces across large facilities.

Retail

Centrally manage access across stores, regional offices, and distribution environments.

Manufacturing

Secure production areas, equipment rooms, inventory, and operational spaces.

Data Centers

Combine network-based controllers with layered access-control policies for critical infrastructure.

Multi-Site Enterprise

Standardize management across locations while allowing hardware choices to vary where operationally appropriate.
