Awid MR-1824-G-MP Medium Range Smart Reader

Product Description

The AWID MR-1824-G-MP is a medium range smart card reader designed for access control applications. It reads compatible credentials at extended distances, reducing the need for users to present cards or fobs at close range. The reader ships in a grey housing with the AWID logo and is sold as an individual unit. Licensed access control technicians and low-voltage security installers are the typical trade professionals who specify and install this type of reader in commercial and light-industrial environments.

Medium range readers like the MR-1824-G-MP are commonly deployed at vehicle entry lanes, parking access points, loading dock gates, and secured pedestrian entries where extended read distance improves throughput and operational efficiency. The grey finish suits standard commercial enclosures and outdoor mounting surfaces. This reader is intended for professional installation as part of a broader access control system.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or access control technician in accordance with applicable local codes and NEC requirements. Power down the access control panel before wiring the reader to avoid damage to system components. Verify reader-to-controller wiring polarity and communication protocol settings before energizing the system. Mounting location should account for the reader's intended read range and any site-specific RF interference.
