IP68 Waterproof RFID Card Reader 125kHz 13.56MHz Wiegand 26/34

Asia-Teco IP68 Waterproof RFID Proximity Card Reader – Dual-Frequency with Wiegand Output

The Asia-Teco IP68 Waterproof RFID Card Reader (Model UP002E/UP002M) is a rugged, weather-resistant proximity card reader designed for professional access control installations. Supporting both 125kHz (EM/ID) and 13.56MHz (Mifare/IC) card frequencies in a single compact unit, it delivers reliable, fast, and secure card reading in any indoor or outdoor environment.

⚠️ Important Note: This is a slave card reader only — it does not store user data, add or delete cards, manage passwords, or operate as a standalone unit. It must be paired with a compatible access control board, fingerprint attendance machine, or similar host controller to function as part a complete access system.

Key Features

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can this RFID card reader work as a standalone access control unit?

A: No — this is a slave proximity card reader that reads card data and transmits it via Wiegand 26/34 output to a host controller. It must be connected to a compatible access control board, attendance machine, or gate controller to form a complete system. It cannot store user data or independently grant/deny access.

Q: What card types are compatible with this RFID reader?

A: This dual-frequency reader supports both 125kHz EM/ID format cards (with a read range of 5–6 cm) and 13.56MHz Mifare IC format cards (with a read range of 3–5 cm). It is compatible with most standard proximity access cards and key fobs used in commercial and residential access systems.

Q: Is this reader suitable for outdoor installation?

A: Yes. With an IP68 waterproof rating, this reader is designed to withstand full submersion and is highly resistant to rain, dust, humidity, and other outdoor environmental factors, making it ideal for exterior doors, parking entry points, gates, and other exposed installation sites.

Q: What is Wiegand 26/34 and how does it affect compatibility?

A: Wiegand 26 (WG26) and Wiegand 34 (WG34) are industry-standard communication protocols used by access control readers to transmit card data to a control panel. The vast majority of commercial access control systems support at least one of these formats, making this reader broadly compatible with panels from most major manufacturers.
