Comnet Proximity Reader 125 kHz Proximity Single Gang Wall Mount Reader Read Range up to 8 - VP-500

Comnet VP-500 125 kHz Proximity Reader Wall Mount

Overview

The Comnet VP-500 is a single-gang wall or surface-mounted proximity reader operating at 125 kHz—the standard frequency for legacy credential systems across commercial access control installations. Read range extends to 8 feet, giving you coverage for typical doorway and entry-point scenarios without requiring card holders to be within arm's reach of the reader. This is the right choice when integrating credential readers into retrofit installations or when standardizing across multiple access points in an existing 125 kHz ecosystem.

Compatibility

The VP-500 works with any 125 kHz proximity card or fob system already deployed in your facility. If your access control panel supports standard Wiegand output from proximity readers, this reader will integrate directly. Verify your existing control panel documentation for proximity reader input specifications before deployment.

Installation Notes

Designed for single-gang electrical boxes, this reader fits standard North American wall cutouts. Surface mounting is also supported for applications where in-wall installation is impractical. The unit ships with mounting hardware and two interchangeable covers—one black, one off-white—allowing aesthetic matching to your facility. No power specification or wiring diagram was provided in available documentation; consult the included instruction manual for exact wiring and power requirements before installation.
