The Kofax Ethernet Card Reader is a network connected RFID reader that allows users to
authenticate themselves to Kofax products using their contactless ID card, badge, tag, or key
fob.
Ethernet reader features include:
•10/100 Mbps operation with auto-MDI/MDIX
•internal switch connecting to both the network and a downstream print device
•Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) capable
•AC mains adapter for use without PoE

Hardware versions
The Kofax Ethernet Card Reader comes in three versions:
•Multi-Card
Built with an NXP chipset, the Multi-Card reader supports a wide variety of 125 kHz RFID and
13.56 MHz contactless smartcard technologies based on ISO14443 and ISO15693 standards.
•iClass and Legic
Built with a LEGIC chipset, the iClass and Legic reader supports a wide variety of 13.56 MHz
contactless smartcard technologies based on ISO14443 and ISO15693 standards. It can retrieve
encrypted data from iCLASS (not including iCLASS SE or Seos), LEGIC Prime, and
LEGIC Advant secure credentials.
•iClass Seos + Multi-Card
Built with an NXP chipset, the iClass Seos + Multi-Card reader supports a wide variety of 125 kHz
RFID and 13.56 MHz contactless smartcard technologies based on ISO14443 and ISO15693
standards. It contains an iCLASS SE Processor to decrypt the Physical Access Card System
(PACS) data from iCLASS, iCLASS SE, and iCLASS Seos secure credentials.
Each version is identified by a unique hardware part number:
