Description
The AWID MR-1824-G-MP Sentinel-Prox™ Medium Range Reader delivers reliable long-range credential reading for access control applications that require greater convenience and security than standard proximity readers. Designed for commercial, industrial, and gated access environments, the MR-1824 provides a read range of up to 24 inches, allowing users to present credentials without needing direct contact with the reader.
Built for both indoor and outdoor installations, the MR-1824 combines rugged construction, dependable performance, and flexible mounting options in an attractive, professional enclosure. Epoxy-potted electronics protect internal components from harsh environmental conditions while integrated LED and audible feedback indicators provide users with clear access status notifications.
The reader supports both Wiegand and RS-232 communication protocols and is compatible with industry-standard 125 kHz proximity credentials. For installations requiring mounting to metal surfaces, metal-compensated versions are available to maintain optimal performance.
