Questions
Common questions
What is the ZKTeco BioFace A1 best suited to?
Door frames and narrow mounting positions that need face and fingerprint, including doors exposed to dust or rain. Where it is the wrong choice: the small screen and 3,000-face limit make it a door unit rather than a main-entrance attendance terminal for a large workforce.
How does the ZKTeco BioFace A1 connect?
It supports TCP/IP, Wi-Fi (optional), RS-485, Wiegand, USB. In UAE installations we normally run terminals on wired Ethernet, keeping wireless as the fallback where cabling is impractical.
What software runs the ZKTeco BioFace A1?
It works with ZKBio CVAccess, ZKBio Time and ZKBio Zlink (cloud). We connect the attendance data through to payroll and produce a WPS-ready export, so punches become a payable file rather than a report someone has to retype.
Do you install and support the ZKTeco BioFace A1 across the UAE?
Yes. We supply, install, configure, train your team and support it across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain. Call +971 56 614 2543 or message us on WhatsApp for a fixed written quote.
