USB RFID Reader for Door Access Control

The ZKTECO CR10M+IC is a USB proximity card reader designed for door access control systems. It reads the serial numbers of 13.56 MHz IC cards and 125 kHz EM ID cards. The unit connects directly to a host computer via USB and draws power from the same interface. It is intended for office environments that require simple badge enrolment or entry logging.

Dual-Frequency 13.56 MHz and 125 kHz Operation

The single specification that decides compatibility is the supported frequency pair of 13.56 MHz and 125 kHz. The reader only returns the serial number of presented cards; it does not read or write card memory sectors. Verify that your access control software expects a raw UID output at these frequencies before purchase.

Plug-and-Play USB Installation

Installation requires plugging the USB cable into a Windows or Linux host; no external 12 V supply is needed despite the specification listing DC 12 V. The 140 x 100 x 30 mm plastic housing mounts on a flat surface with screws or adhesive. Common issues include software failing to recognise the virtual COM port or the 0 to 15 cm read range being reduced by metal surfaces behind the reader.

Questions about this item

How far away can a card be read once the reader is plugged into a PC?

The reader detects cards from direct contact up to 15 cm away, so a badge presented within that range will return its serial number.

What does the USB connection actually limit in day-to-day use?

The USB interface supplies both power and data, so the unit draws its 12 V at up to 60 mA directly from the host without a separate power supply.

What clearance is needed to mount the reader on a door frame?

The housing measures 140 mm long, 100 mm wide and 30 mm deep, weighing 130 g, so it fits standard mullions and surface-mount boxes.
