Hid Global Corporation 20KTKS-T2-000000 Smart Card Reader

Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 20KTKS-T2-000000 is a smart card reader in the Signo 20K series, finished in a black and silver housing and configured for terminal mount installation. Smart card readers of this type authenticate credentials by reading contactless or contact-based smart cards, key fobs, or mobile devices, then passing access decisions to an access control panel. The Signo 20K line is designed for commercial and enterprise physical security applications and is typically installed by licensed security integrators or low-voltage electrical contractors working within access control systems.

This reader is suited for commercial access control deployments where a terminal-mount form factor is required. The black and silver finish supports installations in professional environments such as office buildings, data centers, and controlled-access facilities. Terminal mount configuration allows direct connection to access control panels or door controllers. It ships as a single unit and is intended for permanent installation at doors, gates, or turnstile entry points.

Installation Notes

Follow local low-voltage wiring codes and the access control manufacturer documentation for proper terminal connections and communication protocol configuration.
