The Transition™ Series Secure Sector Smart Card Readers
represent one of the most versatile and secure access solutions
on the market today. These contactless 13.56 MHz smart card
readers are ideal for customers who want to move to secure
credentials to protect badge ID data from counterfeiting. These
readers come in three styles and colors, and feature diversified
or fixed sector keys. Credentials with diversified sector keys
are supplied by GE and feature a unique sector key for each
credential—or, assuring customers a highly secure badge ID
number. Alternatively, customers can select their own fixed
sector keys to protect their badge ID numbers.
Capable of reading most MIFARE credentials, these readers
output Wiegand or RS-485 communication.
All T-7XX models can be mounted on a single-gang electrical
box* or directly on the wall and are weather resistant. The
readers come in your choice of black, charcoal or light gray, and
are visually similar to other Transition readers.
*Mullion model (T-700) requires an adaptor plate to mount on
single-gang box.
