Reader Port Descriptions
Callout Port Description
1 Ethernet 10Base/100Base-T port that connects the
reader to your Ethernet network. The
reader auto-negotiates with the server to
set the best data rate. This port uses MDI/
MDI-X auto-switching so you can connect
either a standard Ethernet cable or a
crossover cable.
The port also supports Power Over
Ethernet (POE). To power the reader, you
need an 802.3af-compliant power supply.
2GPIO
(Optional)
General purpose input/output (GPIO) port
that connects the reader to industrial
controls such as relays or indicators.
