In short: This page covers “UWB (Ultra-Wideband) Precision Access”. Emirtech's own engineers carry out the work, as an independent integrator serving Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. A site survey or assessment comes first, then a written itemised quotation.
| Who provides it? | Emirtech Technology, based at M44, Mussafah Industrial Area, Abu Dhabi, in operation since 2018. The work is carried out by Emirtech's own engineers. |
|---|---|
| Where? | Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, served from Emirtech's Mussafah, Abu Dhabi base; there is no Al Ain office. In Dubai: IT AMC and time attendance by scheduled on-site visits, gate barriers, ANPR, video intercoms and turnstiles by Emirtech itself; CCTV, alarm and access control through SIRA-approved partners, with Emirtech coordinating. |
| What is covered | UWB (Ultra-Wideband) Precision Access. |
| Survey and quotation | Emirtech publishes no price list: it surveys or assesses first and then gives a written, itemised quotation. |
| Credentials | Emirtech is an independent systems integrator. It holds no manufacturer-level credential of its own, and its ADMCC approval covers security systems only, not IT services. |

UWB (Ultra-Wideband) precision access uses short-pulse radio across the 3.1-10.6 GHz bandwidth to measure distance and direction between a mobile credential and a reader to centimetre-level precision — typically 10-30 cm accuracy versus Bluetooth Low Energy's 1-2 metre approximation. The technology powers Apple's U1/U2 chip (iPhone 11 and later, Apple Watch Series 6+), Samsung Galaxy S21+ Ultra Wideband, and emerging access readers from HID Aero with UWB, Kisi UWB-enabled mobile credential, and Brivo / Openpath. UWB chipsets are supplied by NXP Trimension and Qorvo. Practical advantages: the reader knows the credential is physically at the door (not in a bag in the next room), enabling true intent-of-entry unlock; keyless vehicle entry; precise indoor positioning that distinguishes which exact office or apartment a user is standing in; and wayfinding inside large buildings. Emirtech Technology, founded in 2018 and operating from M44, Mussafah Industrial Area, Abu Dhabi, is an ADMCC-approved electronic security installer delivering UWB precision access as part of access-control deployments across Abu Dhabi and Al Ain. We are a Control4 installer working with a third-party authorised dealer — we hold no manufacturer credential of our own. For UWB readers, mobile credentials, and chipsets we install + configure through authorised UAE distribution channels; we are not a Channel Partner, Authorised Distributor, or representative of Apple, Samsung, NXP Semiconductors (Trimension), Qorvo, HID Global, Brivo, Openpath, Kisi, or the FiRa Consortium, and we are not a cellular/RF design firm, a semiconductor entity, or a chipset manufacturer. UWB precision access is a premium, emerging tier suited to executive headquarters, R&D facilities, luxury residences, automotive showrooms, and high-value asset rooms where BLE imprecision is unacceptable. To scope a UWB precision-access design — reader hardware, mobile-credential platform, anchor placement, integration with existing access-control panels, and lifecycle support — call +971 55 651 7843 or email [email protected].
UWB precision-access capabilities
UWB chipsets measure time-of-flight across the 3.1-10.6 GHz band to deliver 10-30 cm ranging accuracy between reader and mobile credential — versus 1-2 metre BLE — enabling true intent-of-entry unlock decisions at doors and turnstiles.
Configuration of mobile credentials on iPhone 11+ (U1/U2 chip), Apple Watch Series 6+, and Samsung Galaxy S21+ Ultra Wideband devices, paired with UWB-enabled access readers from HID, Brivo / Openpath, and Kisi for hands-free precision entry.
UWB anchor deployment for precise indoor positioning that distinguishes which exact room, corridor, or floor a credential is in — used for wayfinding in large headquarters, asset tracking, and zoned access in laboratories and data halls.
UWB precision access suits executive suites, R&D labs, vault rooms, automotive showrooms, and luxury residences where BLE imprecision (unlocking when the phone is in the next room) is unacceptable and centimetre-level precision is required.
UWB precision access is an emerging premium tier — reader availability, mobile-credential platform support, and anchor placement vary by site. Emirtech provides a site survey, manufacturer-channel sourcing, and integration planning against your existing access-control panels. Call +971 55 651 7843 or request a free UWB precision-access consultation.
Where UWB precision access fits in Abu Dhabi
Corporate headquarters where executive floors, boardrooms, and C-suite offices require intent-of-entry unlock — the reader confirms the credential is physically at the door, not in a bag elsewhere on the floor, eliminating accidental BLE unlocks.
Research-and-development facilities and data-centre white space where zoned access must distinguish between adjacent rooms. UWB anchor positioning provides per-room presence detection without RFID handover stations at every doorway.
High-end Abu Dhabi villas and apartments integrated with Control4 smart-home systems — UWB can support door-approach unlock, and room-aware lighting and audio where the devices involved support it; Emirtech is a Control4 installer working with a third-party authorised dealer for the smart-home layer.
Automotive showrooms with UWB-equipped vehicles, high-value asset rooms, vaults, and watch / jewellery galleries where centimetre-precise credential location enables granular access logging on display zones.
UWB precision access is an emerging premium technology and Emirtech's scope is strictly commercial install + configure through authorised UAE distribution channels. The boundaries below are written plainly so procurement, IT, and security teams in Abu Dhabi can match scope to expectations before signing.
If your project requires UWB chipset development, FiRa certification testing, or RF spectrum licensing those sit outside our scope and we will say so before quoting. For commercial install + configure of UWB precision-access readers and mobile credentials in Abu Dhabi or Al Ain, Emirtech is positioned to deliver.
Common questions
UWB delivers 10-30 cm ranging accuracy by measuring time-of-flight across the 3.1-10.6 GHz band, versus 1-2 metre approximation from Bluetooth Low Energy RSSI. That precision allows the reader to confirm the credential is physically at the door — true intent-of-entry — rather than guessing from signal strength.
Apple iPhone 11 and later (U1 chip), iPhone 15 and later (U2 chip), Apple Watch Series 6+, and Samsung Galaxy S21+ Ultra Wideband, S22+/S23+/S24+ Ultra, and Z Fold devices with UWB. Reader-side support is emerging from HID, Brivo / Openpath, and Kisi using NXP Trimension and Qorvo chipsets.
No. Emirtech is ADMCC-approved for electronic security install + configure and is a Control4 installer working with a third-party authorised dealer — we hold no manufacturer credential of our own. For UWB readers, mobile credentials, and chipsets we install + configure through authorised UAE distribution channels. We are not affiliated with Apple, Samsung, NXP Semiconductors (Trimension), Qorvo, HID Global, Brivo, Openpath, Kisi, the FiRa Consortium, or authorised UWB distributors in UAE.
ADMCC-regulated electronic security work — including access control with UWB precision readers — is delivered across Abu Dhabi + Al Ain only. We do not operate in Dubai, Sharjah, or the Northern Emirates for ADMCC-regulated scope.
Yes, in most cases. UWB readers from HID Aero, Brivo, Openpath, and Kisi expose Wiegand, OSDP, or IP integration to existing access-control panels. We assess your head-end (HID, Brivo, Openpath, Honeywell, Genetec, etc.) at survey and confirm UWB reader compatibility, mobile-credential platform alignment, and migration pathway before quoting.
Call +971 55 651 7843, email [email protected], or request a free UWB precision-access consultation. We schedule a site survey from our Mussafah M44 office, confirm device and reader compatibility, and return a fixed-scope proposal for install + configure across Abu Dhabi and Al Ain.
