{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “What is the Perkotek ACP8 used for?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “The Perkotek ACP8 is a parking and access control panel that manages up to 8 long-range UHF HGS antennas at parking entry and exit points, and also provides 8 Wiegand 26/34 ports for connecting card readers such as the KR-720.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “How many vehicles can the ACP8 manage?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “The ACP8 can manage up to 30,000 vehicles simultaneously and stores up to 30,000 HGS tag definitions, with a passage log capacity of 50,000 records.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “Can multiple ACP8 panels be networked together?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “Yes. ACP8 panels connect over a 100 Mb Ethernet network and communicate with each other and with a central computer, allowing up to 510 different parking entry and exit points to be controlled from one system.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “What is Global Anti-Passback on the ACP8?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “Global Anti-Passback prevents a vehicle or card that has not exited from re-entering the facility, which helps maintain accurate occupancy records and prevents credential sharing.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “What card technology does the Perkotek KR-720 use?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “The KR-720 is a 125 kHz proximity card reader. It detects the RFID chip inside a nearby card and transmits the card data to the control panel using the Wiegand protocol.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “What is the read range of the KR-720?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “The KR-720 reads proximity cards from a maximum distance of 15 cm, with a read speed of less than 300 milliseconds.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “Is the Perkotek KR-720 waterproof?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “Yes, the KR-720 has an IP68 waterproof rating and operates in temperatures from -25u00b0C to +75u00b0C, making it suitable for outdoor and humid installations.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “What output protocol does the KR-720 use?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “The KR-720 outputs card data in 26-bit or 34-bit Wiegand format by default, which is a widely supported standard for access control panels.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “Can the KR-720 connect directly to the ACP8?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “Yes. The ACP8 panel provides 8 dedicated Wiegand 26/34 ports, so up to 8 KR-720 readers can be wired directly to a single ACP8 for card-based access control.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “Does the ACP8 work without a live network connection?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “Yes, the ACP8 can operate offline using its local memory, then export the stored entry and exit records to a computer as a backed-up text file once reconnected.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “What is the KR-720 housing made of and how big is it?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “The KR-720 has an ABS plastic housing measuring 110 x 48 x 20 mm and weighing approximately 150 grams.”}},
{“@type”: “Question”, “name”: “Is STC Security an authorized Perkotek distributor in Egypt?”, “acceptedAnswer”: {“@type”: “Answer”, “text”: “Yes, STC Security (Star Technology for Light Current Systems) is the authorized distributor and system integrator for Perkotek in Egypt, providing genuine products, certified installation, local technical support, and warranty services.”}}

Perkotek Access Control Product Lineup
The ACP8 control panel and KR-720 card reader represent two building blocks of a single credential-based access system: one makes the access decision, the other captures the credential. Below, we examine each product with complete technical specifications extracted directly from the manufacturer’s official documentation.
Perkotek ACP8
Model: ACP8 | Category: Parking & Access Control Panel
The Perkotek ACP8 is a networkable control panel built to manage vehicle and card-based access at parking entry and exit points. It handles up to 8 long-range UHF HGS antennas for vehicle tag recognition, and also provides 8 Wiegand 26/34 ports so proximity card readers — including the KR-720 — can be wired directly into the same panel.

How the ACP8 and KR-720 Work Together
On their own, a control panel and a card reader each perform half of an access control transaction. Together, wired over a Wiegand connection, they form a complete credential-verification and door-control workflow. The diagram below outlines each product’s role and the resulting security flow.
1️⃣
Credential Presented
A user holds a proximity card, fob, or tag near the KR-720 reader.
2️⃣
KR-720 Captures the Data
The reader detects the card’s 125 kHz RFID chip and reads its data in under 300 ms.
3️⃣
Data Sent via Wiegand
The KR-720 transmits the 26/34-bit credential to the ACP8 over its Wiegand port.
4️⃣
ACP8 Verifies the Credential
The panel checks the credential against its stored list, time zones, and Anti-Passback rules.
5️⃣
Relay Triggers Door / Barrier
On approval, the ACP8 fires a relay output to release the lock or open the barrier.
6️⃣
Passage Logged & Reported
The event is stored in the ACP8’s log and appears in the SQL-based reporting software.
Typical Deployment Architecture
In a typical installation, one or more KR-720 readers are wired via Wiegand to the entry and exit lanes or doors, with all readers connecting back to a single ACP8 panel — which supports up to 8 Wiegand devices per unit. For larger sites, multiple ACP8 panels are then linked together over a 100 Mb Ethernet network, allowing the SQL-based software to centrally manage up to 510 entry and exit points from one location.
Where This Access Control Solution Fits
Because the ACP8 combines vehicle-lane and card-based access in one platform, it suits a wide range of facility types across Egypt. Below are common deployment environments for the ACP8 and KR-720 combination.

Frequently Asked Questions About the ACP8 & KR-720
ACP8 Control Panel
What is the Perkotek ACP8 used for?
The Perkotek ACP8 is a parking and access control panel that manages up to 8 long-range UHF HGS antennas at parking entry and exit points. In addition, it provides 8 Wiegand 26/34 ports so card readers such as the KR-720 can be connected to the same panel.
How many vehicles can the ACP8 manage?
The ACP8 can handle up to 30,000 vehicles simultaneously and stores up to 30,000 HGS tag definitions. Its passage log capacity holds 50,000 records for detailed reporting.
Can multiple ACP8 panels be networked together?
Yes. ACP8 panels connect over a 100 Mb Ethernet network and communicate with each other and with a central computer. As a result, up to 510 different parking entry and exit points can be controlled from a single system.
What is Global Anti-Passback on the ACP8?
Global Anti-Passback prevents a vehicle or card that has not exited from re-entering the facility. This helps maintain accurate occupancy records and prevents credentials from being shared or reused.
Does the ACP8 work without a live network connection?
Yes, the ACP8 can operate offline using its local memory. Once reconnected, it exports the stored entry and exit records to a computer as a backed-up text file.
KR-720 Card Reader
What card technology does the Perkotek KR-720 use?
The KR-720 is a 125 kHz proximity card reader. It detects the RFID chip inside a nearby card and transmits the card data to the control panel using the Wiegand protocol.
What is the read range of the KR-720?
The KR-720 reads proximity cards from a maximum distance of 15 cm. Its read speed is under 300 milliseconds, so credentials are recognized almost instantly.
Is the Perkotek KR-720 waterproof?
Yes, the KR-720 carries an IP68 waterproof rating and operates in temperatures from -25°C to +75°C. Therefore, it is suitable for both outdoor and humid installation sites.
What output protocol does the KR-720 use, and how big is it?
The KR-720 outputs card data in 26-bit or 34-bit Wiegand format by default. It has an ABS plastic housing measuring 110 × 48 × 20 mm and weighs approximately 150 grams.
Integration & Distribution
Can the KR-720 connect directly to the ACP8?
Yes. The ACP8 panel provides 8 dedicated Wiegand 26/34 ports, so up to 8 KR-720 readers can be wired directly to a single ACP8 for card-based access control.
Is STC Security an authorized Perkotek distributor in Egypt?
Yes, STC Security (Star Technology for Light Current Systems) is the authorized distributor and system integrator for Perkotek in Egypt. We provide genuine products, certified installation, local technical support, and warranty services.
