Conekt comprises Farpointe Data’s contactless smartcard reader solution with mobile access support. Based upon the proven LEGIC® contactless digital radio frequency identification (RFID) platform, Conekt readers interface with a wide range of electronic access control systems by complying with either the legacy Wiegand and ABA Track II magnetic stripe formats, or the latest bi-directional Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP). They offer value-add features such as MAXSecure™ and ValidID™, and support both sector and card serial number (CSN) reads. In addition to traditional contactless smartcard access credentials, such as clamshell cards and key tags, the platform also offers the option of mobile access credentials loaded on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)-enabled smartphones. This allows the smartphone to function as a contactless electronic access control credential. Conekt access credentials, both traditional and mobile, can be ordered programmed to various formats in exact number sequence required.
