FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Answering your questions about mobile Bluetooth low energy parking permits.

+ What is Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), otherwise known as Bluetooth 4.0 was born from a revolutionary data transfer technology with roots in the Internet of Things (IoT). When it comes to parking, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is an electronic reader that lets users present their parking access credential via their Bluetooth-enabled smartphone or wearable technology, opening the facility’s barrier gate to allow ingress or egress for the registered user.

+ How do BLE parking permits work?

With mobile BLE permits, registered users such as staff and tenants can access your gated parking facility by simply turning on their mobile Bluetooth. Once the registered users arrive at the parking entry or exit lane, their mobile BLE permit is detected by a BLE reader and the gate automatically opens. This software enables easy access to your parking facility and encourages a frictionless experience for your customers.

+ What do I need to implement BLE permits in my gated parking facility?

Implementing BLE permits into your parking facility is easier than you think. All that is required is a Bluetooth reader installed as a standalone unit or within the column itself at each entry and exit point. The reader must be paired with an external directional antenna installed in nearby field cabinets. To communicate between systems, a long-range communication radio must also be installed for approximately every 200 feet radius of parking area. Depending on the size of your lot, you could have multiple readers and communication radios. BLE permits must also be paired with a mobile app. This allows customers to easily store their access credentials on their smartphone, making entering and exiting your facility a breeze. And the benefits don’t stop there. The beauty about mobile apps is that they automatically come with a central management system that makes it easy to manage registered users.

+ How can BLE permits support my digital building strategy?

BLE parking permits are a connected solution that provides you ultimate control over your organization, customers, and communities. They can span far beyond parking experiences and into ultimate interconnectivity for your entire facility— a great starting point for smart access and connected building strategies
