The Kantech KT-NCC, just like the Windows-based NCC, manages communication from the EntraPass access control software to the controllers as well as controls global features such as areas and anti-passback, alarm systems, guard tours, and secondary access levels. Unlike the Windows-based NCC, however, the KT-NCC takes this powerful functionality away from the PC, and now provides a new panel architecture that is much more reliable and upgradable.
