- 31 October 2023 - Southco Asia Ltd., a subsidiary of Southco Inc., a
leading global provider of engineered access solutions such as locks,
latches, captive fasteners, electronic access solutions and hinges/
positioning technology has expanded its line of electronic rotary
latches with a new version that facilitates equipment security upgrades.
Southco's new R4-05 Electronic Rotary Latch is designed to be used with
a mechanical multipoint latching system or other combination of
swinghandles and flat, round or hex rod solutions commonly used to drive
multiple latching points to secure large cabinet doors.
With the rollout of 5G technology, Telecom operators are increasing the
value and quantity of their equipment, which is often added to existing
network enclosures located in remote outdoor areas. The R4-05 Electronic
Rotary Latch can be easily added to existing systems in the field
without having to disassemble the mechanical latching system, allowing
operators to retrofit existing hardware in the field and enhance
security with minimal effort. Constructed of corrosion resistant
stainless steel, the R4-05 Electronic Rotary Latch is sealed to IP67 and
suitable for outdoor use.
The R4-05 Electronic Rotary Latch combines a mechanical rotary latch
with an electronic actuator for enhanced security and remote access
control. It can be easily integrated with an existing mechanical
multipoint latching system by installing the R4-05 latch on the door,
next to the rod. When the striker is engaged with the lock, the rods
cannot move, preventing operators from actuating the latch from outside
of the enclosure. To access the door, a signal is sent to the R4-05
Electronic Rotary Latch from either an existing access control system or
a standalone access controller, like a Bluetooth or RFID card reader.
It then releases the striker, but remains in a closed, but unlocked
position until the latch is operated normally from the outside of the
enclosure. If the latch is not opened from the outside of the door, it
moves back to the locked state, providing an added layer of security.
When combined with the R4-05 Electronic Rotary Latch, Southco
Multi-Point Latch Systems provide a comprehensive solution for large
door security applications. A simple handle turn of the multipoint
locking system can secure multiple latch points along large doors. A
wide range of locking security and handle styles, along with optional
sealing features, make them suitable for most large door applications.
When used as a standalone latch, the R4-05 Electronic Rotary Latch
provides a concealed, push-to-close access control solution for a wide
variety of industry applications where space is at a premium and remote
access is needed.
Commercial Product Manager Todd Schwanger adds, "The R4-05 Electronic
Rotary Latch makes it easy to upgrade the security of Telecom enclosures
and other valuable equipment. With a drop in assembly designed to fit
most cabinet types and rod styles, the R4-05 Electronic Rotary Latch is
ideal for quick field retrofits."
