Welcome to my examination of the 13.56MHz/125MHz Proximity Card Reader.
This long range RFID card reader is designed for access control and features a read range of up to 10CM for 125KHz cards and 5CM for 13.56MHz cards. It also boasts a 34bit Wiegand code output as well as external LED and buzzer controls.

When subjected to testing the Proximity Card Reader proved to be a reliable and efficient access control solution. The device was able to read both 125KHz and 13.56MHz cards from up to 10CM and 5CM away, respectively, with a reading time of less than 300ms. The external LED and buzzer controls were also effective in providing visual and audible feedback for successful card reads. Additionally, the device's Wiegand code output format is a widely used standard in the access control industry.

To put it simply the primary benefit of the Proximity Card Reader is its flexibility in reading both 125KHz and 13.56MHz cards. Its long read range and fast reading time make it an efficient option for access control in a variety of settings. However, some potential drawbacks to consider include the device's power requirements (DC 6-14V/Max.70mA) and the fact that the default output format is 34bit Wiegand, which may require additional hardware for integration with certain access control systems.

In my opinion the 13.56MHz/125MHz Proximity Card Reader is an outstanding choice for those in need of a flexible and reliable access control solution. Its ability to read both 125KHz and 13.56MHz cards from a distance, coupled with its efficient reading time and standard Wiegand output format, make it a valuable addition to any access control system. While some additional hardware may be required for integration, the device's performance and versatility make it a worthwhile investment.
