Product overview This 125KHz proximity card reader with Wiegand 26bit output is built for access control and parking systems that require reliable midrange vehicle and credential detection. It reads compatible 125KHz prox cards and tags at distances up to 40 inches, enabling faster, noncontact entry while integrating with standard access controllers. Key benefits Faster vehicle flow and reduced idling: Midrange read distance lets drivers stay in their vehicles while the reader detects credentials, shortening gates and barrier wait times. Easy integration: Outputs standard Wiegand 26bit signals, compatible with a wide range of access control panels and parking controllers that accept this protocol. Reliable credential reading: Designed for consistent reads up to 40 inches with 125KHz proximity cards and tags, improving throughput and reducing user errors. Flexible placement: Midrange performance is suitable for mounting on posts, bollards, gate arms, or laneside enclosures where shortrange readers are too close and longrange readers are unnecessary. Key attributes Function: 125KHz proximity card reader for credential detection and access control Communication: Wiegand 26bit output for straightforward connection to compatible controllers Read range: Middle reading distance, up to 40 inches Typical applications: Designed for vehicle entry lanes, parking systems, and pedestrian or vehicle access points where midrange reading is preferred What makes this reader stand out Purposebuilt midrange performance matches many parking and gated access use cases where hands vehicle entry is desired but ultralongrange is not required Standard Wiegand output keeps integration simple and predictable across a broad set of access control systems Read range balances convenience and control, reducing tailgating risk compared to very longrange readers while improving throughput compared to shortrange units Representative use scenarios Parking lot entry lanes: Mount on a post at the lane entrance to detect staff or resident cards from stopped or slowly moving vehicles, reducing gate cycle times. Gated community vehicle access: Install near the gate arm so residents can be identified without leaving their vehicles for a more convenient daily commute. Commercial facility loading bays: Use to grant timed access to delivery vehicles or service contractors while keeping traffic moving and access logged by the central controller. Compatibility and installation notes Intended to work with access control and parking controllers that accept Wiegand 26bit input and 125KHz proximity credentials. Suitable for installations that require a midrange reading solution; verify controller wiring and power requirements prior to installation. This reader provides a balanced midrange solution for access control and parking systems that require reliable 125KHz credential detection and straightforward Wiegand 26bit integration.
