Access Control for Transit & Rail — No Wiring Required

Old infrastructure, modern access control.

Some of the busiest transit systems in the world run on infrastructure older than the card reader itself. Running wire and power through a 100-year-old subway to install traditional access control is somewhere between prohibitively expensive and impossible. That is exactly where CyberLock fits: electronic access control with no wiring, no power at the access point, and no network connection required.

No power at the lock. A CyberLock cylinder needs no wiring and no battery at the opening. Power is provided by the battery inside the CyberKey the moment the key touches the lock. That is why it secures a gate, a cabinet, a remote cabin or a rack door with nothing to plug into and no electrician on site.

What we secure for transit agencies

  • Subway ticketing machines. TEC installed CyberLock on subway ticketing machines that had been repeatedly broken into. There is no keyway to pick — theft stopped, and every opening is now logged.
  • Substations and remote sites. For NJ Transit, running wire and power to remote substations just to hang a card reader made no financial sense. CyberLock padlocks and cylinders secured gates, control switches, and enclosures at roughly 1/10th the cost of traditional access control.
  • Track and right-of-way access. Gates, help points, communications cabinets — anywhere power and wiring don’t reach.

Why transit agencies pick TEC

20+ years of installations. Cloud or fully on-premises management — for agencies that can’t put security in the cloud. One platform for every lock, from a padlock on a fence line to a cabinet in a tunnel.
