2IntroductionThe pcProx® Plus OEM module enables users to easily embed active RFID read capability into their equipment. The security, reliability, and convenience of proximity and contactless identification and access is available in a self-contained electronic module. This module allows customers to develop a wide variety of unique, customized devices that tap into the power of using existing door access cards for employee identification and authentication. The OEM module is perfect for third-party manufacturers or developers who want to integrate 125 kHz proximity or 13.56 MHz contactless technology into their standard offerings. The pcProx Plus OEM module can be seamlessly integrated due to its capability of providing data via USB keystrokes, a Software Developer’s Kit (SDK) interface, ASCII serial, or Wiegand output. The reader can be configured to add keystrokes before or after card data. As an integrated reader, it has the ability to work with a multitude of applications.Package ContentsThe following items are contained in the pcProx Plus OEM Module packaging.
