Hid Global 40KHNKS-03-0005N1 Signo 40K Piv Smart Card Reader

Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 40KHNKS-03-0005N1 is a Signo 40K PIV smart card reader designed for secure access control installations. It reads PIV (Personal Identity Verification) credentials and operates in the 40K frequency range, making it suitable for government, enterprise, and high-security facility deployments. The reader ships in a black and silver finish and uses a pigtail wiring connection for field termination. Licensed access control technicians and low-voltage security installers are the primary trades that deploy this device.

This reader is intended for wall-mounted access control applications where PIV card authentication is required. Typical installations include secure door entry points in federal facilities, corporate campuses, and other environments that mandate PIV-compliant credential verification. The pigtail output connects to an access control panel or controller at the field level. It is sold as a single unit per package.
