Introduction
The Prox-Booster and Smartcard-Boosters are dual-ID tags enabling simultaneous identification of the inserted
personal ID card and the embedded vehicle ID resulting in rapid driver and vehicle monitoring.
The Booster allows an inserted Proximity or Smartcard driver ID card and embedded vehicle ID to be read from a
distance up to 10 meters (33 feet) in combination with NEDAP TRANSIT readers. This solution substantially enhances
the level of security when controlling activities of vehicles that are regularly used by different drivers.
Additionally, a fully integrated vehicle and personnel access solution can be implemented.
The Smartcard-Booster Ultimate additionally supports encrypted authentication using diversified AES128 bit keys, in
combination with the TRANSIT Ultimate and the Security Key Pack.
For more details about the NEDAP TRANSIT Ultimate reader refer to the corresponding installation guide.
The combined vehicle and driver ID is a unique NEDAP patented feature.
Optionally the Booster can also be operated in single-ID mode, in applications where only the personal ID card is used.

•
