How many employees does the ZKTeco BioFace A1 hold?

The ZKTeco BioFace A1 stores up to 6,000 enrolled records on the device, with a 150,000-punch transaction log. We check your headcount and peak-minute traffic before recommending it.

How does the ZKTeco BioFace A1 connect?

It supports TCP/IP, Wi-Fi, RS-485, Wiegand, USB and SIP intercom. In UAE installations we normally run it on wired Ethernet, with Wi-Fi kept as the fallback where cabling is impractical.

Can the ZKTeco BioFace A1 be installed outdoors in the UAE?

The manufacturer rates it IP65, with an operating range of -5 to 45 C. We still specify a shade hood on elevations that take direct midday sun, which extends screen and sensor life.

What software runs the ZKTeco BioFace A1?

ZKBio CVAccess, BioTime Cloud and other ZKBio platforms. Dual-core 1 GHz CPU, 512 MB RAM / 8 GB ROM. 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 ZKTeco BioFace A1 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.
