Why the KR-500E RFID Wiegand Reader Stands Out
If you need a high-performance card reader that balances speed, range, and reliability, the KR-500E RFID Wiegand Reader is a top contender. Here’s what sets it apart:
- Quick Authentication: Reads cards in 200ms, ensuring rapid entry
- Strong Read Range: Up to 10cm for fast, contactless use
- Flexible Output: Supports both 26-bit and 34-bit Wiegand formats
- Weather-Resistant: IP65-rated enclosure for indoor and outdoor use
- Universal Compatibility: Works with all 125KHz proximity cards and tags
- Custom Control: Dual input ports for external LED and buzzer control
In short, it’s engineered for seamless integration with most access systems while maximizing ease of use and resilience.
Key Features of KR-500E RFID Wiegand Reader
1. Speed and Performance
At the heart of the KR-500E is efficiency. It delivers blazing-fast card recognition at 200ms—which means zero waiting time for users. This quick response makes it ideal for high-traffic areas like offices, schools, hospitals, and warehouses.
2. Extended Read Range
The reader can detect proximity cards from a distance of up to 10cm. No fumbling. No need to touch the surface. Just a smooth swipe and you’re in.
3. Built for Harsh Environments
Whether you’re facing rain, dust, or intense sun, the KR-500E’s IP65 rating ensures it will keep functioning without compromise. Its ABS+PC enclosure with a textured finish resists damage, giving you long-term reliability.
