Contactless Reader Module
The optional contactless smart card module incorporates RFID technology based
on the ISO 14443 standard. The “tap-and-go” design conforms to industry
specifications. A smart card is read when it is placed in close proximity
(1 in. to 3.9 in. or 2.5 to 10 cm) to the reader, reducing wear and tear on card
readers and cards. Contactless readers can be used to support any number of
payment and value-added applications. See Installing Optonal Components for
