Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 40KNKS-00-0001H3 is a smart card reader from the Signo 40K series, finished in a black and silver pigtail-connection configuration. Smart card readers in this class are used to authenticate credentials at access-controlled entry points, reading encrypted card data and passing it to an access control panel for verification. This unit is sold individually and is appropriate for installation by security systems integrators and low-voltage electricians working on physical access control systems.

The Signo 40K series is designed for use in commercial and institutional access control installations where credential readers must interface with an access control panel via a pigtail wiring harness. This reader suits applications in office buildings, healthcare facilities, education campuses, and similar environments requiring reliable card-based entry management. The black and silver finish provides a professional appearance suited to modern interior and exterior mounting locations.
