Hid Global 900PNPNEK2038W Multiclass Smart Card Reader

Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 900PNPNEK2038W is a multiclass smart card reader designed for access control applications. Part of the RP10 reader series, it supports multiple card technologies in a single unit, allowing facilities to run legacy and modern credentials side by side without swapping hardware. This reader is typically installed by licensed low-voltage or security contractors as part of an electronic access control system. Its form factor and credential flexibility make it a practical choice for door-level access points in both new installations and system upgrades.

The 900PNPNEK2038W is suited for commercial and institutional access control deployments where credential interoperability is a priority. It fits standard single-gang wall plate mounting at controlled entry points such as doors, gates, and turnstiles. The multiclass design reduces the need to replace readers when transitioning between card technologies, supporting a phased migration from older proximity formats to newer smart card standards.
