Geovision 55-RK352-100 13.56MHz IP66 Outdoor RFID Reader
Overview
The Geovision 55-RK352-100 is a 13.56MHz RFID reader rated IP66 for outdoor access control deployments. This reader operates on the ISO15693 and ISO14443A/B standards — widely supported across enterprise access control systems — making it compatible with card and tag-based credential workflows in parking structures, gate houses, loading docks, and perimeter entry points where weather protection is non-negotiable. IP66 means direct rain, hose-down, and airborne dust won't degrade read reliability, a practical requirement for unattended outdoor readers exposed to seasonal temperature swings and humidity.
Compatibility
The 55-RK352-100 integrates into Geovision access control systems via the AC/Control (ACControl) cable category — confirm your existing Geovision controller or panel supports 13.56MHz credential format before ordering. This reader works with ISO15693 (vicinity cards) and ISO14443A/B (proximity cards and NFC tags), so verify your credential stock matches one of these protocols. If you're retrofitting an existing access system, cross-reference your controller's reader input specifications with the 13.56MHz standard to avoid incompatibility with legacy 125kHz-only systems.
Installation Notes
Mount the reader in a sheltered location or use a protective weather hood to further extend service life in direct-spray environments — IP66 rating handles rain splash, not steady downpour under an eave. Ensure the ACControl cable runs through conduit or UV-resistant jacket if exposed to sunlight for extended periods. Verify 12V DC or appropriate power supply voltage matches your Geovision controller's reader rail output before connecting.
