  • Waterproof IP65 rating protects against dust and water jets
  • Wiegand 26/34-bit output connects to standard controllers

Access control reader for Mifare cards

The ZKTECO KR101M reads 13.56MHz IC cards at up to 15cm range and outputs Wiegand 26/34-bit data over 100m cable runs. It operates from DC5-16V with reverse polarity protection and includes dual-colour LED plus buzzer for status feedback.

Suited for indoor or outdoor door entry

IP65 epoxy-sealed housing withstands -10°C to 70°C and 10-90% humidity, making it fit for exposed mullion or metal-frame mounting. Sites needing 125kHz proximity credentials or longer read distances should consider alternative models.

Handles single-door Mifare access

The 78x43x16mm ABS+PVC unit manages one entry point per reader; dual-sided control needs two devices. Capacity scales with the connected controller — the reader itself stores no user data and provides no network interface.

Questions about this item

Which controller do I need to connect this reader to?

It uses a standard Wiegand 26/34-bit output, so any access controller with a matching Wiegand input will work, including the C3 series mentioned by the manufacturer.

Will the 13.56 MHz reader still read cards if I keep my old 125 kHz proximity cards?

The M series model only reads 13.56 MHz IC (Mifare) cards; it does not read 125 kHz proximity cards, so older low-frequency cards will not work with this unit.

What should the LED show when a valid card is presented at the reader?

The built-in double-colour LED indicates allowed or denied access; a valid card typically lights green while an invalid card lights red, confirming the reader is functioning.
