Hid Global Corporation 20TKS-00-00402E Signo 20 Smart Reader

Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 20TKS-00-00402E is the Signo 20 smart card reader, a compact access control reader designed for credential-based entry systems. Finished in a black and silver terminal housing, this unit reads smart card credentials and communicates with access control panels in commercial and light industrial environments. Licensed security integrators and low-voltage technicians are the primary installers. The Signo 20 is built for modern physical security infrastructure where reliable, contactless or contact-based credential reading is required at the door or entry point.

The 20TKS-00-00402E is suited for commercial access control deployments where a wall-mounted terminal reader is needed at a secured entry. Typical applications include office buildings, server rooms, and restricted areas requiring credential verification. The terminal form factor supports standard gang-box mounting configurations common in commercial construction.
