Are you tired of smart card reader cables being in the way on your desk? We totally understand that the 5-foot cable included with many of these readers can be quite the hassle when it comes to cable management.
That is why major smart card manufacturers such as HID and RF IDeas have created versions that are completely wireless and ONLY need Bluetooth to operate. A Bluetooth connection relies on the 2.4 GHz and operates over a range of distances depending on environmental conditions. The included video will give an overview of it.
We have comprised a list of the Bluetooth-enabled smart card readers that we sell that will allow you to simply pair the device via a Bluetooth pairing.
We have included a profile of each of the smart card readers, so you can get a better idea of their capabilities.
