The use of both contact and contactless technology in corporate environments has
created the need for a cost-efficient smart card reader, able to bridge and in
some cases merge applications that use both technologies. Gemalto's Prox dual
interface reader is able to perform various access control applications in use
within public and private spheres. Granting physical and network access to
corporate users have been made simpler and faster with Gemalto's Prox readers.
The readers' read and write capacities offer speedy yet secure network log-on
and user identity authentication. Migration from contact to full contactless
smart card technology is also made simpler.
The readers are fully plug-and-play in both contact and contactless modes and use native PC/SC drivers of most operating systems available in the market.
Gemalto's Prox readers with the right smart card can also be used in corporate applications such as signing emails, multi-functional printers and user enrollment systems.
