The reader supports Seos, iCLASS SE, iCLASS, MIFARE Classic, and MIFARE DESFire EV1 credentials while utilizing Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) for secure communication between the reader and access control controller. This combination provides a flexible, future-ready solution for evolving access control environments.
The HID iCLASS SE RM40 is well suited for commercial buildings, healthcare facilities, educational campuses, government sites, and other organizations migrating from magnetic stripe credentials to more secure smart card technologies. Intelligent power management can reduce energy consumption by up to 59%, while select models feature Environmental Product Declaration and Green Circle certifications to support sustainability initiatives and LEED building credits.
