1 Introduction
1.1 Product Description
The iCLASS SE
®
Reader is part of HID Global’s next generation platform. The iCLASS
SE Reader goes beyond the traditional smart card model offering secure and
standards based independent technology and flexible identity data structure based on
Secure Identity Object™ (SIO
®
). SIO is a portable and open credential methodology.
Building on the success of the existing OEM modules (including the OEM50 and
OEM75) the iCLASS SE Reader enhances existing functionality with new SIO features.
The new features include supporting NFC smart phones and other devices for mobile
access while also providing increased levels of security.
The iCLASS SE Reader allows integrators to design third party solutions supporting a
full range of contactless card technologies, including iCLASS
®
, MIFARE
®
and HID Prox.
It also provides PIV II compliance/ FIPS 201 certification and appears on the GSA
Approved Products List (APL) allowing straightforward integration into U.S.
Government applications.
The iCLASS SE Reader’s dual frequency capability allows the use of both high and low
frequency credentials with the same reader, providing a solution for mixed credential
and credential migration applications.
Another key feature of the iCLASS SE Reader is the straightforward field upgrade
support that allows firmware changes and feature upgrades for installed readers to
extend the lifecycle of customer installations.
For quick and easy integration, HID Global also provides an iCLASS SE Reader
Developer Tool Kit (DTK). The DTK provides the necessary tools, documentation and
developer resources material to shorten integration cycles and speed time to market
with finished products.
