Wireless 6 - 15
Near Field Communications
NFC/HF RFID is a short-range wireless connectivity technology standard that enables secure transaction between
a reader and a contactless smart card. The technology is based on ISO/IEC 14443 type A and B (proximity) and
ISO/IEC 15693 (vicinity) standards, using the HF 13.56 MHz unlicensed band. The TC56 support 3 operating
modes:
• Reader mode
• Peer-to-Peer communication
• Card Emulation mode.
Using NFC, the TC56 can:
• Read contactless cards such as contactless tickets, ID cards and ePassport.
• Read and write information to contactless cards such as SmartPosters and tickets, as well as devices with
NFC interface such as vending machines.
• Read information from supported medical sensors.
• Pair with supported Bluetooth devices such as printers and headsets.
• Exchange data with another NFC device.
• Emulate contactless card such as payment, ticket or SmartPoster.
The TC56 NFC antenna is uniquely positioned to read NFC cards from the top of the device while being held in the
user's hand.
