RF IDeas WAVE ID Plus SDK a montaggio esterno nero lettore USB

In a busy hospital ward, nurses tap their ID badges on a small black reader mounted at the nurses' station to instantly log into patient records—no passwords, no fumbling. That's the WAVE ID Plus in action: a dual-frequency card reader that reads almost any proximity or contactless smart card, from legacy HID Prox to modern MIFARE DESFire EV3. It connects via USB and works right out of the box, while the included SDK lets developers integrate card data into custom applications.

Why choose it

This reader eliminates the need for multiple single-frequency devices. One unit covers both legacy proximity cards and modern smart cards, making it ideal for mixed environments. The WAVE ID SDK provides APIs for custom integration, and the reader works with Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS hosts. Plug-and-play installation means no drivers are required for keyboard emulation.

Ideal use cases

• Secure logon for healthcare, government, and enterprise workstations
• Time and attendance tracking in manufacturing or retail
• Access control for doors, kiosks, or shared equipment
• Custom application development using the SDK for card data capture
• Legacy card migration projects needing dual-frequency support

Good to know

The reader mounts via adhesive pad or screws, and the integrated cable keeps desks tidy. It supports secure sector reads for MIFARE, iCLASS, and PIV cards, ensuring compatibility with high-security credentials. No external power adapter is needed—just plug into any USB port.
