Features
- The CR100 series are compact USB desktop readers designed for efficient enrollment and management of contactless credentials across access control, time attendance, visitor management, and card issuance applications.
- CR100 and CR100FR support both 13.56 MHz (HF) and 125 kHz (LF) technologies, the readers provide broad compatibility with legacy proximity cards and modern smart cards and NFC tags.
- Built on a high-integration RF circuit design, the CR100 delivers reliable card detection with minimal electromagnetic interference, fast read performance (typical detection time ≤500 ms to UID), and read ranges up to 30 mm depending on card type. The USB 2.0 (Type-C) interface enables plug-and-play deployment via standard Custom USB Device and USB keyboard wedge modes on Windows, Android, mac OS, and Linux (on request)—no proprietary drivers required.
