IP65 Waterproof Dual-Band RFID Access Control Reader | NFC Wiegand
Asia-Teco IP65 Waterproof Dual-Band RFID Access Control Slave Reader
Upgrade your entry security with the Asia-Teco CC8611R/CC86R — a rugged, metal-mounted RFID access control slave reader featuring a sleek LED-backlit glass panel. Engineered for both indoor and outdoor installations, this dual-band reader supports 125 kHz EM cards and 13.56 MHz M1 IC cards (S50/S70 1K), giving you flexible compatibility across a wide range of existing access control systems. Made in Mainland China.
Key Features
- IP65 Waterproof Rating: Fully protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets — ideal for outdoor gates, parking garages, and exposed entry points.
- Dual-Band Compatibility: Reads both 125 kHz EM/ID cards and 13.56 MHz M1 IC cards (S50, S70, 1K) in a single device — no need for two separate readers.
- NFC & Anti-Clone Technology: Advanced card verification actively detects and blocks cloned/copied cards, delivering a higher level of access security compared to standard readers.
- Wiegand 26/34 Output: Default Wiegand26 output; easily switch to Wiegand34 by connecting the FOR pin to GND — compatible with the vast majority of access control panels on the market.
- BLE 4.0 (Optional): Optional Bluetooth Low Energy 4.0 communication for wireless integration with smart access systems.
- UART Serial Output: In UART mode, serial output baud rate is 9600 bps with TTL-level hardware output. Level conversion required when connecting to a PC.
- Direct Metal-Surface Mounting: Specifically designed for direct installation on metal doors and frames — no signal interference from the mounting surface.
- Wide Operating Temperature: Functions reliably from -40°C to +75°C (-40°F to 167°F), making it suitable for extreme climate environments.
- LED Backlit Glass Panel: Elegant tempered-glass front panel with LED backlighting for clear visual feedback and a modern, professional appearance.
- Low Power Consumption: Designed with energy-efficient components, reducing operational costs over time.
- Gicard Security Solution Compatible: Supports Gicard Security Access Control Solution for enhanced system-level integration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What card types does this dual-band RFID reader support?
A: The Asia-Teco CC8611R/CC86R supports both 125 kHz EM/ID cards and 13.56 MHz M1 IC cards (S50, S70, 1K formats), making it a versatile choice for facilities using mixed card systems.
Q: Can this RFID reader be mounted directly on a metal door or frame?
A: Yes. This reader is specifically engineered for direct metal-surface mounting. Unlike standard readers that lose read range when installed on metal, this unit maintains full performance on metallic surfaces.
Q: How do I switch between Wiegand26 and Wiegand34 output?
A: The reader defaults to Wiegand26 output. To switch to Wiegand34, simply connect the FOR pin to GND. No additional programming or tools are required.
Q: Is this reader suitable for outdoor installation in extreme weather?
A: Absolutely. With an IP65 waterproof rating and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +75°C, this reader is built to handle harsh outdoor environments including rain, dust, and temperature extremes.
Q: What is the anti-clone card feature and why does it matter?
A: The anti-clone (Sniper IC) feature actively identifies and rejects counterfeit or duplicated access cards. This significantly enhances security by ensuring only original, authorized cards can grant entry — an important safeguard in commercial and high-traffic environments.
