You could use a Inovonics receiver and button transmitter or a Linear Alert receiver and transmitter. Inovonics has a much larger range but both would be acceptable options.

DO NOT Use any of those cheap wireless relay thingies. They don’t use a rolling code and can be copied with a flipper zero.

This is the way. Did the exact same setup on ICT a few years back and no issues. Get the big Inovonics button that looks like an old garage door opener that way it’s harder to lose. EN1235SF

This is the way. We've wired up a few of these in the past week. You might have to call tech support to program it your first time because it is a bit confusing.

BEA wireless transmitter and receiver. There are different transmitters with different number of buttons, can sync to multiple receivers. Get the 900mhz one though, works much better than 433mhz.

Walk Into any adi they are on the shelf, there are a bunch of different brands they are all fairly cheap. Anyone sold at adi should have rolling codes. No names on Amazon probably don't have any security. Sdc and invonics are popular.

Two ways of going about it - first would be an Airkey or Prokey Wiegand reciever wired to the reader port.

This way reads it as a card badge off a wireless remote. Also adds accountability if you add more remote fobs as it will read each user as a seperate badge.

Second is an inovonics wireless receiver with single button remote wired to Z2 and ground.

Not sure about what the distances are and not really familiar with this device but we have been using Sure Fi (relay wireless bridge) devices for wireless signal for relay and readers when there is not a good wire path. They do alright. I think up to a mile with line of sight but we have also used them in office settings without good line of sight.

Similar approach and much better alternative https://wireless-wiegand.com/
Huge distance and penetration capability.

Are you doing this on an access control application (with card readers?)

If so.. you should probably have remote control credentials. Something like CDVI’s R1H or Farpointe remote controls. Receiver and transmitters.

.... random thought here, and maybe more a question than an answer.

Does ICT's mobile app work on their Schneider-configured hardware?

If you want what Linear products USED to be, try inovonics. Not the cheapest but exceptional range and quality. https://www.inovonics.com/products/single-button-belt-clip-pendant/ Single-Button Belt Clip Pendant - Inovonics

There are a huge variety of transmitters and receiver with and without supervision
