Product Features
The OMNIKEY® 5427 CK Reader by HID Global is a compact, multi-technology desktop reader that combines support for low-frequency (125 kHz) and high-frequency (13.56 MHz) contactless credentials in one device. It reads popular card technologies such as HID Prox®, iCLASS®, Seos®, MIFARE® and DESFire® EV1/EV2, making it an ideal choice for organizations moving from older proximity cards to next-generation smart cards.
