Hid Global Corporation 921PHRNEK00068 Pivclass Smart Reader

Product Description

The HID GLOBAL CORPORATION 921PHRNEK00068 is a PIVClass RPK40-H series high-frequency smart card reader designed for secure access control applications. This single-gang, pigtail-wired reader operates in the high-frequency range and is finished in black. It is built to read PIV-compliant credentials and is intended for installation in government, enterprise, and institutional facilities where FIPS 201 compliant access control is required. Licensed security integrators and access control technicians are the primary installers of this device.

This reader is suited for single-gang wall-box installations in environments requiring PIV and PIVClass credential interoperability. Typical deployments include federal facilities, secure office environments, and other locations mandating FIPS 201 compliant entry points. The pigtail wiring configuration allows connection to compatible access control panels and controllers in standard low-voltage rough-in scenarios.
