Matrix ARC DC 200 2 port Next Generation Mobile Based Door Access Controller Feature Overview

Matrix ARC DC 200 2 port Next Generation Mobile Based Door Access Controller Feature Overview

Here’s a detailed overview of the *[Matrix COSEC ARC DC200P]()* (sometimes called “ARC DC200”), a two-door IP access-control panel from Matrix/Matrix Comsec. I’ll cover its key features, specs, application scenarios, and what to watch out for.

✅ Key Features & Highlights

Supports control of *up to 2 doors / 2 locks* with up to 2 readers (via Wiegand or RS-485) for each door. ([Prestige Saudi Co. Ltd-][1])
Large user/event capacity: supports up to 50,000 users and up to 500,000 event logs in server/network mode. ([Matrix Comsec][2])
Multi-connectivity: Ethernet (10/100 Mbps), RS-485, WiFi, Bluetooth (BLE) and PoE/PoE+ support (IEEE 802.3 af/at) to power the device + lock/reader. ([Prestige Saudi Co. Ltd-][1])
Credential flexibility: With external readers it supports credentials like card, PIN, BLE/mobile, etc. (via connected reader) ([Matrix Comsec][2])
Support for third-party readers: Accepts Wiegand & OSDP v2.2 interface and RS-485 for Matrix readers. ([Matrix Comsec][2])
IP-to-Door concept: The controller is designed for minimal wiring (PoE + Ethernet/WiFi) so you can deploy at the door rather than run long cables back to a central panel. ([tngitglobal.com][3])
Auxiliary I/O: Exit switch ports, door status sense (NO/NC programmable), AUX in/out, door lock relay (30 VDC @ 2A) etc. ([Prestige Saudi Co. Ltd-][1])
Compact form-factor and mounting flexibility (wall or DIN-rail) in many installations. ([Matrix Comsec][4])
Secure communications: SSL enabled, helps secure link between controller and server. ([Matrix Comsec][2])

📋 Technical Specifications (Summary)

Here are some of the more important specs for quick reference:

**Users**: 50,000 (in server/network mode) ([Prestige Saudi Co. Ltd-][1])
**Events storage**: 500,000 event logs. ([Prestige Sa
**Power/Input**: PoE/PoE+ (IEEE 802.3 af/at) or 12 V DC adapter; reader power output max ~12 V DC @ 0.25 A (on external supply or PoE) ([Prestige Saudi Co. Ltd-][1])
**Lock relay**: Max 30 V DC @ 2A, Relay SPDT Form C. ([Matrix Comsec][2])
**Operating environment**: Temperature –10 °C to +50 °C; humidity 5% to 95% RH non-condensing. ([Prestige Saudi Co. Ltd-][1])
**Mounting/dimensions**: ~140 mm x 78 mm x 25 mm (varies by spec sheet) ([Matrix Comsec][4])
**Certifications**: CE, FCC, RoHS, UL. ([Prestige Saudi Co. Ltd-][1])

🎯 Why you might choose it

If you are deploying access control for *two doors* (entry + exit or two adjacent doors) and want a *network/IP-based* solution rather than a purely standalone one.
If you want to leverage existing network infrastructure, WiFi or PoE, to reduce cabling cost. The “IP to door” concept is helpful.
If you anticipate needing *mobile/BLE-based credentials* or future-proofing for such credentials.
If you want compatibility with third-party readers (via Wiegand/OSDP) so you are not locked into only the manufacturer’s reader hardware.
Good for medium sized enterprise installations (50 k users is plenty for many sites).


⚠️ Things to check / Considerations

While the controller supports two doors, if you have many doors (say 10 +), you’ll need multiple units or a different panel.
Make sure your readers (card/fingerprint/face) are compatible, especially if third-party; check Wiegand/OSDP formats supported.
Ensure the lock/reader power requirements match what the unit can supply (e.g., 12 V DC @ 0.5 A for one lock; with PoE+ up to ~1 A for one lock or 0.5 A each for two locks) from spec sheet. ([tngitglobal.com][3])
In WiFi deployments, ensure signal strength is adequate, and ensure network security is robust (since controller communicates over network).
Ensure you plan for firmware updates, network security, maintenance. While SSL is supported, network access control remains critical.
Budget for software/licensing

🏢 Typical Applications

Office entrances: two doors (main & secondary) managed via IP network.
Data centres / secure areas: controlling entry and exit with networked readers + logs.
Retail / banking branches: where minimal wiring is desired and credentials via mobile/BLE may be helpful.
Multi-floor buildings: where each door may have its own controller integrated via network.
