Hikvision DS-K1104MK Vandal-Proof Card Reader

Hikvision DS-K1104MK Vandal-Proof Mifare Keypad Card Reader

The Hikvision DS-K1104MK is a rugged, wired card reader engineered for secure access control in demanding environments. Combining Mifare card compatibility with a 12-key numeric keypad, this device delivers dual-factor authentication capabilities in a compact, vandal-resistant form factor. Built from PC and zinc-alloy materials with an IK10 impact rating, it withstands mechanical attacks while maintaining reliable performance across extreme temperature ranges.

Key Features

• Mifare 1 Card Compatibility: Native support for standard Mifare cards widely deployed in access control systems
• 12-Key Numeric Keypad: Integrated keypad (0–9, *, #) enables PIN entry for multi-factor authentication
• Vandal-Resistant Design: IK10 rating provides the highest level of protection against mechanical impact and forced tampering
• Durable Construction: PC+zinc-alloy shell resists corrosion and environmental degradation
• Audible Feedback: Built-in buzzer provides users with clear confirmation of card reads and authentication events
• LED Indicators: Visual status feedback for operation monitoring
• DIP Switch Configuration: Simplified ID and settings adjustment without external tools

Applications

Ideal for high-security facilities requiring robust access control, including corporate offices, data centers, manufacturing plants, hospitals, and government buildings. The combination of card and PIN authentication makes the DS-K1104MK suitable for areas where enhanced access verification is mandatory. Its vandal-resistant construction ensures long-term reliability in both interior and semi-outdoor installations.

System Integration

The DS-K1104MK integrates seamlessly with Hikvision access control platforms and third-party systems supporting standard reader protocols. DIP switch-based ID configuration simplifies deployment without requiring specialized software tools, reducing installation time and complexity.

The DS-K1104MK represents a practical solution for organizations balancing security requirements with budget constraints. The IK10 vandal rating ensures performance in high-risk environments where standard readers fail, while the integrated keypad eliminates the need for separate PIN entry devices. The -20°C to 65°C temperature range supports both climate-controlled indoor facilities and temperature-variable industrial spaces.

Power consumption of ≤2W makes this reader suitable for installations with distributed power architectures. For deployments requiring card-only access, Hikvision offers the non-keypad DS-K1104M variant, providing flexibility across different facility requirements. The wired connectivity eliminates wireless interference concerns, critical in security-sensitive applications.
