Web-Based Management:
HID Global’s OMNIKEY 5427 CK G2 reader features an easy-to-use web-based management tool for intuitive browser-based configuration with no training. Using the standard CCID interface independent of the host operating system eliminates complex software lifecycle management issues in the field and accelerates time to market. Supporting both low and high-frequency credentials and HID Mobile Access Solutions via Bluetooth and NFC on a single product, it enables seamless migration in mixed credential technology environments.
Its keyboard wedge functionality enables customers to retrieve data from the card that is presented and directly input it into applications through keystroke emulation, eliminating the need for them to manually enter it. This makes it easier for them to do their work while reducing the risk of security breaches. Designed to be part of the iCLASS SE platform, this secure, standards-based, independent, and flexible solution offers multiple integration options for different use cases. This makes the OMNIKEY 5427 CK the ideal choice for any application that requires a cost-effective, high-performance, and durable reader.
Bluetooth Interface:
The OMNIKEY 5427 CK Gen2 dual frequency reader offers security, flexibility, and ease of integration. It supports both low and high-frequency technology within a single device enabling seamless credential migration and mixed technology environments. It supports a broad range of low-frequency credentials, including HID Prox and Indala Prox, MIFARE Classic, MIFARE DESFire EV1, and EV2, as well as iCLASS SE and iCLASS Seos.
The reader provides the option to connect with mobile access solutions via Bluetooth and NFC enabling customers to leverage their smartphone as an identity source, eliminating the need to manage separate credential systems. It also offers a keyboard wedge interface, allowing users to retrieve card data and directly input it into an application using keystroke emulation. The CCID-based interface eliminates the need to install and maintain drivers, simplifying system integration and accelerating time to market.
CCID Interface:
HID Global’s OMNIKEY 5427CK Reader functions in virtually any PC environment opening new markets for system integrators. This contactless smart card reader supports CCID or Keyboard Wedge interfaces and works independently of the operating system eliminating complex software lifecycle management in the field and accelerating time to market. Combined with Navigo, an easy-to-use application that manages the lifecycle of iCLASS smart cards for strong authentication, this desktop family reader is a powerful solution to deploy logical access applications like network logon, email encryption, and digital signature.
This dual-interface (contact/contactless) reader works with existing HID Prox proximity cards enabling the implementation of logical access applications without the need for re-badging. It also supports low and high-frequency technology within a single device for seamless migration in mixed credential technology environments. In addition, a keyboard wedge functionality allows users to retrieve data from the card that is presented and directly input it into any application using the same keystroke emulation.
