DoorKing Proximity Card Readers
A unique feature of the DKS proximity card reader product line is that the card readers are compatible with both passive and active tags. This allows a mixing of different cards and tags to achieve desired read ranges in different locations without having to install a second card reader or carry two tags. These readers feature a cosmetically appealing design that will blend with any architectural design and offer high durability and reliability.
DoorKing carries a full line of DKS, AWID and HID proximity card readers and cards. These readers output the card data to the access controller (1833, 1835, 1837 or 1838) where the decision to grant or deny access is made. These readers are ideal for both pedestrian and vehicular access control. Proximity cards transmit their information to the card reader without any physical contact. This provides an easy to use vandal resistant system. Access is granted when a valid card is presented to the card reader.

• Passive card technology provides an unlimited number of "card reads" with no battery to wear out. Active cards provide a much longer read range, but use a battery that will require replacement in time (2-years approximately). • Passive cards, unless they are physically abused, will last virtually forever |
