Hid Global Corporation 20NKS-02-001UXD Signo 20 Smart Reader

Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 20NKS-02-001UXD is the Signo 20 smart card reader, a compact access control device finished in a black and silver housing with a pigtail wiring termination. Designed for credential-based entry systems, this reader processes contactless smart card transactions at the door and communicates with an access control panel or controller. The pigtail output simplifies field wiring to standard reader interfaces. Electricians and low-voltage security technicians are the primary installers for this device in commercial and light commercial access control applications.

The Signo 20 reader is suited for interior and exterior door access points in commercial facilities, office buildings, and institutional environments. It is intended for use in wiegand or OSDP-compatible access control systems where contactless smart card credentials are required. The pigtail connection format accommodates direct termination at the controller or through junction boxes in standard rough-in installations. This unit ships individually as a single reader assembly.
