Description

Geovision 520-FR2020-000 13.56 MHz Face Recognition Reader

Overview

The Geovision 520-FR2020-000 is a 13.56 MHz face recognition reader module designed to add biometric credential verification to access control systems. This reader eliminates card-swipe friction at checkpoints where you need positive identity confirmation — corporate campuses, secure facilities, and high-traffic restricted zones where audit trail specificity matters. Deploy it at doors, gates, or credential stations to pair facial biometric capture with 13.56 MHz RFID/NFC data flow, strengthening both authentication and audit logging without replacing your existing panel infrastructure.

Compatibility

The 520-FR2020-000 operates on the 13.56 MHz RFID/NFC frequency band. Confirm compatibility with your specific Geovision access control panel, door controller, or integration gateway before installation. Verify your system supports 13.56 MHz reader modules and the integration protocol (Wiegand, RS-485, or proprietary gateway protocol) used by your control hardware. Consult your system documentation or your integrator for device pairing confirmation and protocol support details.

Installation Notes

This is a reader module requiring hardwired integration to an access control panel or gateway. Position the module to provide clear line-of-sight to credential presentation points and adequate illumination for facial image capture. Avoid mounting locations with heavy RF interference from other wireless systems operating near 13.56 MHz. Ensure your installation environment supports RFID/NFC communication without shielding or reflective metal nearby. Follow your panel's wiring schematic for power and data connections; verify voltage and signal levels before powering on.
