The GE Model 240 and 245 (keypad) Contactless Smart
Card Readers are the latest evolution in access security technology, offering true universal compatibility with all ISO
15693 and ISO 14443A security badges, disc tags, and key
fob credentials. This 100% industry compatibility with ISO
standards is just one of the unique characteristics of the
GE readers.
100% ISO COMPATIBILITY
The GE Model 240 and 245 readers comply with ISO 15693
and ISO 14443A standards for readers and credentials,
unlike some other products that use proprietary and exclusive formats. This allows you to mix and match existing
100% ISO-compliant credentials with GE readers. This also
helps you to preserve current investments, eliminate singlesupplier dependency, and enjoy a lower total cost of security
system ownership.
INTELLIGENT SUPERVISION
The GE readers feature supervised four-state (open contact,
closed contact, cut wire, and shorted wire) integrity monitoring for door contacts, REX (request to exit), and reader
communications. This intelligent supervision ensures that
security personnel are notified if a reader is tampered with,
a door is breeched or circuit bypassed (cut or shorted). This
distinctive capability sets GE readers apart as some of the
most secure within the industry, and the brand of choice for
the world’s largest facilities.
WEATHER RESISTANT / LIFETIME WARRANTY
The GE Model 240 and 245 reader housings are made of
durable UV-resistant polycarbonate material that inhibits
discoloration in all types of conditions including direct
sunlight. The GE readers also feature sealed (potted) electronics for additional protection against inclement weather.
Combine all this protection with a lifetime warranty, and any
organization can confidently expect years of exemplary GE
reader service.

The GE name represents 100% high-quality security products, cheerful customer service, and trained customer
support technicians to help you with any questions. These
