Schlage SM10 Smart Mini Reader 13.56 Mhz

Product Description

The SCHLAGE SM10 is a compact, high-frequency smart card reader designed for access control applications. Operating at 13.56 MHz, it reads smart card credentials and communicates with access control panels to grant or restrict entry. The SM10 is built for installations where space is limited but reliable credential reading is required. Licensed security and access control technicians typically install this unit as part of a broader electronic access system. Its small form factor makes it suitable for mounting in tight locations without sacrificing read performance.

The SM10 is used in commercial and light-industrial access control deployments where 13.56 MHz smart card technology is the credential standard. It fits into new installations and retrofit projects alike, serving as a reader at controlled entry points such as doors, gates, and secure rooms. The unit is sold individually and is intended for integration with a compatible access control panel or controller.
