Contactless RFID terminals

Tap-ready hardware for transit, time and access.

REYNORD designs contactless reader terminals for two demanding jobs: validating fares on public transport, and recording working time and controlling doors in the workplace.

01 fareOpen F9XX · Fare collection

Public-transport grade contactless validators.

F910 and F930 handle open- and closed-loop payments. They read high-end MIFARE Plus and DESFire cards under ISO 14443A, accept EMV L1 & L2 contactless credit cards, and scan mobile or printed QR tickets, with fast online transaction validation.

  1. Open & closed loop

    EMV L1 & L2 contactless bank cards alongside MIFARE Plus and DESFire transit cards, from the same reader.

  2. QR in and out

    A built-in reader takes mobile and printed QR tickets, and the display can generate QR codes on screen.

  3. Top-up, even offline

    A token-based security structure lets MIFARE Plus and DESFire cards be topped up online or while temporarily offline. Two SAM slots secure payments and the device.

  4. Flexible ticketing rules

    Fast online validation, plus white lists for time-limited, route-based and reservation-based ticketing.

  5. Readable in any light

    1024 × 600 IPS display with up to 900 nits, brightness that follows ambient light, and a 172° viewing angle.

  6. Real audio

    5 W audio output with a speech synthesizer for spoken passenger feedback.

  7. Made for vehicles

    9–36 V DC or PoE (IEEE 802.3af), with DC input prioritized. Vehicle unique-ID identification is standard.

  8. Ready to integrate

    Two opto-isolated inputs and two relay outputs as standard. CAN-FD, RS485 and 4G LTE are optional; turnstile versions are available on request.

F910 or F930: one validator, two compute platforms.

Both models are functionally identical: same enclosure, display, reader and I/O. Choose by the software you plan to run.

02 F300 series · Time & access control

Time attendance and access control in one terminal.

F300 is a contactless RFID terminal for the workplace. Staff present a MIFARE card, pick an action on the touch screen, and the event goes to your system over Wi-Fi or Ethernet, using HTTP or MQTT secured with TLS 1.3. A relay output and two opto-isolated inputs take care of the door.

  • Duty trips

  1. Clear touch interface

    800 × 480 TFT with 5-point capacitive touch: large, finger-friendly actions for arrival, departure, duty trips and absences.

  2. MIFARE reader

    Reads ISO 14443 MIFARE cards and tags, so staff badge in with the credentials they already carry.

  3. Wi-Fi or Ethernet

    2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g/n wireless, or wired 10/100BASE-T where a cable is already in the wall.

  4. Door control built in

    A normally-open relay output for the lock and two opto-isolated inputs, for example for a door contact or exit button.

  5. Real audio

    A 3 W speaker gives clear spoken and audible feedback at every tap.

  6. On-board storage

    SD card memory up to 8 GB on the terminal.

  7. Admin panel

    A built-in admin panel makes settings and configuration straightforward.

  8. Secure integration

    Built-in HTTP and MQTT, encrypted with TLS 1.3, to connect to HR, time-management or IoT back ends.
