Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 40NKS-02-000278 is a wall-mount proximity smart card reader operating at 13.56 MHz, designed for access control applications in commercial and institutional facilities. The Signo 40 reads contactless smart cards and credentials at 13.56 MHz, supporting modern card technologies used in physical access control systems. It mounts directly to a wall or single-gang electrical box and connects to an access control panel as part of a door-entry or secured-area control system. Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage or security systems technician.

The Signo 40 reader is suited for interior wall-mount deployments at controlled entry points such as office doors, server rooms, utility areas, and secured corridors. It is intended for use in commercial, institutional, and light industrial environments where contactless smart card access control is required. The reader integrates with compatible access control panels and credential management platforms that support 13.56 MHz smart card technology.
