CONTACTLESS READERS
ACR1252U
USB NFC Contactless Reader III (NFC Forum Certified)
The ACR1252U USB NFC Reader III is an NFC Forum-certified PC-linked reader, developed based on 13.56MHz contactless technology. It features a SAM (Secure Access Module) slot, which can be used with a SAM card for key diversification and mutual authentication, providing high-level security in contactless transactions. Post-deployment firmware upgrade is supported, eliminating the need for additional hardware modification.
The ACR1252U is capable of three modes of NFC: card reader/writer, card emulation, and peer-to-peer communication. Compliant with both CCID and PC/SC, this plug-and-play USB NFC device allows interoperability with different devices and applications.
The ACR1252U comes with an optional stand to hold the smart card reader at an optimal angle, allowing users to tap contactless cards or NFC-enabled devices onto the ACR1252U with ease.
