Questions about this item
Should I choose the CR10M or the CR10E model for my access system?
The CR10M reads 13.56 MHz IC cards while the CR10E reads 125 KHz ID cards; pick the model that matches your existing card technology.
What does the 15 cm read distance mean when the reader is mounted on a door frame?
It allows a card to be detected up to 15 cm away, so users can present a badge without touching the plastic housing.
How does the USB interface limit the way I connect this reader to my controller?
The USB port provides both data and power, so the unit plugs directly into a PC or compatible controller without a separate 12 V supply.
