is an OEM coupler which embeds all the key components of a a small size
contactless reader but not the RF antenna.
Gemalto provides all the technical specifications and the technical support
necessary to its customers to develop this antenna.
It is
designed to fit the requirements of the Payment, Transportation and Identity
markets. It is fully compliant with the corresponding industry standards
such as PayPass v1.0 level 1, ICAO, FIPS 201 / PIV, Calypso - Innovatron,
MIFARE, NFC.

Features and Benefits
The Prox-Module coupler is a
macro component (or module) that can be mounted separately or plugged on the
mother PCB of the final equipment.
Thanks to its small size (3 cm x 3 cm), Prox-Module is well suited for POS
terminals, PDAs and other portable devices. It also allows the user to turn the
RF field off, when not in operation, for battery saving.
