STid has designed the Architect® Hybrid 125 kHz + 13.56 MHz vandal-proof keypad reader for access control - perfect blend of two identification technologies - to facilitate your migrations to advanced security levels.
All public encryption algorithms can be used (3DES, AES, RSA, SHA, etc.), which are recommended by official data security agencies (such as the French national agency ANSSI). The reader uses the latest MIFARE® DESFire® EV2 contactless chip technologies with new data security mechanisms:
Manage with ease a multi-factor identification
Thanks to its various operating modes (card AND key or card OR key), you can use the keypad to identify people or to activate additional functions (activation of the intrusion alarm…).
The Architect® Hybrid keypad reader makes it easy to manage extensions, upgrades and technology migrations. It combines two identification frequencies: 125 kHz (EM, Crosspoint…) and 13.56 MHz (all the MIFARE® chips including DESFire® EV2, NFC, CSN of iCLASS™*, CSN of PicoPass®…). If you need to set up a complex multi-site configuration, this reader can be used to read a range of different cards.
*Our readers read only the iCLASS™ UID / Chip Serial Number. They do not read secure HID Global’s iCLASS™ cryptographic protections.

The SECard software lets users, installers and integrators easily:

The Architect® series is intuitive and dynamic, and consists of 5 interchangeable modules
that can easily be connected to a common smart RFID core.
This easy and cost saving modular approach allows autonomy on the security access management.
