The new reader supports 13.56 MHz credentials such as iCLASS^®, DESFire^® or MIFARE^® and has an integrated cryptographic module supporting credentials with enhanced system security such as iCLASS Seos^®, iCLASS SE^®, iCLASS Elite^®.

Due to its keyboard wedge functionality the reader can be easily integrated. Data from the card can be retrieved and trasformed for direct input into applications using keystroke emulation and therefore eliminates the need for organizations to manually enter card data into applications.
