Asia-Teco RFID Door Access Control Reader — IP67 Waterproof, 2000 Users
Take command of who enters your property with the Asia-Teco RFID Door Access Control Keypad (Model A8-X-EM / A8-X-MF). Built for both indoor and outdoor installations, this rugged reader supports up to 2,000 users and offers three flexible entry methods: RFID card, PIN code, or card + code combination. The heavy-duty zinc-alloy electroplated anti-vandal housing and IP67 waterproof rating make it equally at home on a gated driveway, office entrance, warehouse, or school facility.
Made in Mainland China.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the A8-X-EM and A8-X-MF models?
A: The A8-X-EM reads standard 125 kHz EM proximity cards, while the A8-X-MF reads 13.56 MHz Mifare cards. Both models share the same IP67 waterproof housing, 2,000-user capacity, and Wiegand 26/34 interface — the only difference is the RFID card frequency they support. Choose based on the type of cards already in use at your facility.
Q: Can this RFID access control reader work as a standalone unit without a separate controller panel?
A: Yes. The Asia-Teco A8-X can operate in standalone mode, managing up to 2,000 users, door relay output, and alarm output entirely on its own. It also outputs Wiegand 26 or 34 data if you want to connect it to a third-party access control panel for expanded functionality such as logging or time-attendance tracking.
Q: How do I add or remove users from this RFID keypad reader?
A: User management is done directly from the keypad using the administrator card. You can add cards continuously in batch mode or delete individual cards (including lost ones) via the keypad menu — no PC or dedicated software is required. The administrator card can also add or remove PIN codes for individual users.
Q: Is the IP67 waterproof rating sufficient for outdoor installation in rain or extreme weather?
A: IP67 means the unit is completely dust-tight and can withstand temporary immersion in up to 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. The back of the unit is sealed with adhesive gasket material to further protect wiring penetrations. This makes it well-suited for exposed outdoor locations such as gate posts, building facades, and covered entryways subject to rain, humidity, and dust.
Q: What wiring interface does this keypad support?
A: The reader supports both Wiegand 26-bit and Wiegand 34-bit input and output, which are the two most widely used communication protocols for access control hardware. It operates on a DC power supply between 10 V and 24 V, making it compatible with most standard access control power supplies already on the market.
