Common questions
- How many employees does the FingerTec Kadex hold?
- The FingerTec Kadex stores up to 30,000 enrolled records on the device, with a 50,000-punch transaction log. We check your headcount and peak-minute traffic before recommending it.
- How does the FingerTec Kadex connect?
- It supports TCP/IP, RS-485, RS-232, Wiegand and USB. In UAE installations we normally run it on wired Ethernet, with Wi-Fi kept as the fallback where cabling is impractical.
- What software runs the FingerTec Kadex?
- Ingress / TCMS V3. We connect the attendance data through to payroll and produce a WPS-ready export, so the punches become a payable file rather than a report someone has to retype.
- Do you install and support the FingerTec Kadex across the UAE?
- Yes. We supply, install, configure, train your team and support it across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain. Call +971 54 707 9900 for a fixed written quote.
