Swipe NFC and IC Card Reader for Access Control Keypad This external reader expands card swipe and password unlocking for access control keypads and compatible controllers. It provides dual frequency reading, fast response, and a sealed housing for reliable indoor or outdoor use. Note that the reader does not store user data and cannot add cards, passwords, or fingerprint users. It works as an extended reading head that relays data to access control allinone units, fingerprint attendance devices, and multi door controllers. Key benefits Adds remote card and password read capability to existing access control systems without storing user data on the reader itself. Dual frequency support improves compatibility with common card types for flexible deployment. Fast card recognition and low current draw reduce system latency and power load. Sealed ABS housing with acrylic front and resin potting provides robust protection for indoor and outdoor installation.
