- Controllers: LP series (LP1501, LP1502, LP2500) and next‑gen MP series (MP1502, MP4502)
- Supports OSDP Secure Channel, TLS, AES encryption
- Expandable across many door controllers and IO modules
- Cardholder capacity from hundreds of thousands to millions
Description
HID Mercury intelligent controllers form the backbone of scalable enterprise access control systems. Built on a proven open‑architecture platform, they provide flexibility to integrate with software from a variety of OEM partners, without vendor lock‑in.
The LP series (LP1501, LP1502, LP2500) run embedded Linux and deliver robust performance for small to medium installations, with built‑in crypto memory and OSDP secure channel support. For larger deployments, the MP series adds even greater capacity, encryption, and application support while maintaining footprint compatibility with LP systems.
Whether replacing legacy EP or LP systems or deploying new installations, Mercury controllers allow hosts to comply with modern security standards while supporting backward compatibility with existing IO modules and wiring.
