HF | NFC - RFID Reader Module HID - OMNIKEY® 5127CK Core

The OMNIKEY 5127CK Reader Core from HID Global is a powerful yet extremely compact HID embedded RFID reader module, specifically designed for OEMs and system integrators. As a modern RFID reader module, it opens up new market opportunities wherever space-saving, flexible, and future-proof identification solutions are required. Thanks to its modular design, this OEM RFID reader module is ideally suited for integration into mobile devices, industrial terminals, kiosk systems, or embedded access-control solutions. By supporting HF and NFC RFID technologies within a single RFID reader, the module combines maximum functionality with minimal space requirements. External, remote HF/LF and Bluetooth antennas allow developers to implement custom antenna concepts and optimally adapt the NFC reader module to specific installation conditions and design requirements.

A key feature of the OMNIKEY 5127CK Reader Core is its comprehensive multi-interface support. As a professional HID RFID reader module, it supports common standard interfaces such as CCID, UART, USB, and keyboard wedge. The CCID interface in particular makes this RFID reader module highly attractive for OEMs, as no additional drivers need to be installed or maintained. This significantly reduces integration effort, simplifies software lifecycle management, and accelerates time to market for new products. In addition, full support for USB suspend/resume and remote wake-up makes the OMNIKEY 5127CK Reader Core an ideal solution for energy-efficient and battery-powered applications. Especially in mobile or energy-sensitive systems, this HID embedded RFID reader represents a decisive competitive advantage.

Another major benefit is the integrated keyboard-wedge functionality. This allows the RFID reader to read card data and transmit it directly to a target application via keyboard emulation. Manual data entry is completely eliminated, reducing operating errors and significantly speeding up processes. At the same time, the RFID reader module supports a wide range of modern identification and access technologies from the HF and NFC RFID domains. These include Seos, iCLASS SE, MIFARE Classic, and HID Prox, among others. In addition, the module is designed for current mobile-access scenarios and can process NFC- and Bluetooth-based credentials. This makes the OMNIKEY 5127CK Reader Core ideally suited for applications in secure authentication, mobile access systems, healthcare, industry, or government.

The overall package is rounded out by an integrated management tool that enables field updates for firmware and configuration. This ensures that the HID RFID reader module remains flexible in the long term and can be adapted to new requirements. As a high-quality RFID reader module, the OMNIKEY 5127CK Reader Core therefore offers an ideal combination of technical performance, ease of integration, and future readiness.
