What technology of card readers do you install at low security facilities such as an office building where its more important to be compatible with the tenants standalone system (so they only have to carry 1 card)?

  • 125K Wiegand Prox
  • Multi-Tech 125/13.56?
  • Smartcard Only?
  • Clock/Data

We all know that 125k cards can be cloned with a $30 investment from China.  How much does this concern you on low security applications?

It is a concern on all applications. Cloneable card technology should already be end of life. Selling degraded technology is not good practice.
