ARC-B – 13.56 MHz DESFire® EV3 keypad reader

The STid ARC-B is a secure RFID card reader with a capacitive keypad, designed for high security and scalability. It uses 13.56 MHz DESFire® EV3 technology and integrates both RFID and NFC technologies for multi-factor identification. The ARC-B reader supports all public encryption algorithms, such as 3DES, AES, RSA, and SHA, offering robust data security. It is made to operate in harsh environments with an IP65 rating and IK08 vandal-proof resistance. The ARC-B is fully customisable to meet specific needs and is interoperable with multiple access control systems.
