APEX Ascent Mullion Access Reader - 13.56MHz, BLE, OSDP, Wallet
Product Description
The Wavelynx AX-10 APEX Ascent Mullion Access Reader is a next-generation RFID reader designed to deliver secure, flexible and future-proof access control.
Purpose-built for modern security environments, it supports 13.56MHz NFC smartcards, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) 5.3 mobile credentials, and mobile wallet integration, ensuring users can access facilities with cards, smartphones, or wearable devices.
Engineered for long-term reliability, the AX-10 features a durable IP65+ rated enclosure with a sleek mullion form factor ideal for narrow door frames and high-traffic installations. A metal cast mounting plate enhances durability and installation robustness, while its compact, minimalist design complements modern architectural spaces.
The Wavelynx AX-10 goes beyond standard readers with advanced security and interoperability. Equipped with an EAL6+ Secure Element, accelerometer-based tamper detection, and compliance with OSDP v2.2, it ensures strong encryption and protection against unauthorised access attempts.
The unique OSDP Autodetect feature enables seamless migration from legacy Wiegand to OSDP protocols, reducing costs and simplifying system upgrades.
With broad credential compatibility, the reader is fully interoperable with Wavelynx Ethos readers, supporting both modern and legacy credentials. This means organisations can implement mobile credentials while still accommodating existing card technologies - maximising flexibility during system transitions.
Designed for convenience and efficiency, the AX-10 offers remote firmware upgrades, ensuring systems remain secure and up-to-date without costly site visits. Visual user feedback is provided via a multi-colour LED light bar, confirming credential acceptance and enhancing user experience.
Whether deployed in enterprise campuses, government facilities, healthcare, or commercial real estate, the AX-10 delivers the perfect balance of durability, security, and modern credential support - ensuring organisations are equipped for today’s needs and tomorrow’s challenges.
