Acr1281u Contactless Smart Card Reader - Usb Connectivity, Supports Extended Apdu Commands, Compatible With Windows, Mac And Linux, Ideal For Pki Applications And Large File Handling

The ACR1281U nPA contactless reader is one of the worlda s earliest
nPA scheme-qualified readers that support the extended contactless
Application Protocol Data Unit (APDU) command. The ACR1281U nPA contactless reader can access virtually any contactless smart card following the ISO 14443 standard. With its MCU high processing speed and good antenna performance, it is ready for highly demanding applications requiring high speed (up to 847 kbps) and government qualifications such as Germany BSI certificate etc
ACR1281U's support for extended contactless APDU Commands
makes the processing of highly secure Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) algorithms and reading/writing of large files in a much shorter time. Hence, ACR1281U nPA Contactless Reader is fit for PKI applications, such as digital signatures on official documents using 2048 or 4096 bits of RSA keys, as well as government applications, which involves storing large files such as ID photos and fingerprint images. At such speeds, users are able to experience the total satisfactions of utilizing contactless
technology. USB connectivity of the ACR1281U nPA contactless reader securely connects the contactless smart cards, such as the new Germany e-ID cards, to any PC running on Windows, Mac and Linux operating systems. With a secure firmware upgrade capability, the reader is forward compatible with new card requirements and new function requirements.
Following its certification, ACR1281U nPA contactless reader can now be readily deployed by government authorities, companies and other institutions for citizens to assess this nPa electronic ID card system, implemented by Germanya s Federal Ministry of Interior.
