Dual CAC and NFC reader for secure access

This USB 2-in-1 smart card reader handles both contact-based CAC cards and contactless NFC credentials. It suits government, banking and enterprise users who need PC/SC-compliant authentication on Windows, macOS, Android or Linux. Plug-and-play operation means no driver installation is required for standard smart-card middleware.

CCID-certified build with ISO7816 and ISO14443

The reader weighs 0.068 kilograms and draws power from a single USB cable. Its contact slot accepts ISO7816 Class A 5V and Class B 3.3V cards using T=0 or T=1 protocols. The contactless antenna reads ISO14443A and B type cards, ISO14443-4 T=CL cards and MIFARE tokens, enabling tap-to-read for ID badges, payment cards and access tokens.

Check OS smart-card middleware

Verify that your operating system includes or can install the PC/SC stack required by your authentication software. The device does not support health-insurance cards or associated health applications. Third-party card editing utilities are not supplied, so ensure your workflow does not depend on bundled management tools.
