HID Global recently launched a new version of the company’s RP40 multiCLASS™ reader. In continued support of the multiCLASS reader line, the RP40 now supports Indala 125 kHz proximity and AWID, in addition to HID proximity. The reader now provides additional support for users upgrading from proximity cards to contactless smart cards. With multiCLASS, the customer has the ability to transition to contactless smart cards over time while incorporating the use of multiple card technologies within a single building or across multiple facilities.
