STid has designed the Architect® Hybrid 125 kHz + 13.56 MHz vandal-proof keypad reader for access control - perfect blend of two identification technologies - to facilitate your migrations to advanced security levels.
The most awarded access control reader around the world
Both reader and keypad, the device allows a dual-identification by combining card and/or PIN code identifications.
Thanks to its various operating modes (card AND key or card OR key), you can use the keypad to identify people or to activate additional functions (activation of the intrusion alarm…).
The Architect® Hybrid keypad reader makes it easy to manage extensions, upgrades and technology migrations. It combines two identification frequencies: 125 kHz (EM, Crosspoint…) and 13.56 MHz (all the MIFARE® chips including DESFire® EV2, NFC, CSN of iCLASS™*, CSN of PicoPass®…). If you need to set up a complex multi-site configuration, this reader can be used to read a range of different cards.
*Our readers read only the iCLASS™ UID / Chip Serial Number. They do not read secure HID Global’s iCLASS™ cryptographic protections.
All public encryption algorithms can be used (3DES, AES, RSA, SHA, etc.), which are recommended by official data security agencies (such as the French national agency ANSSI). The reader uses the latest MIFARE® DESFire® EV2 contactless chip technologies with new data security mechanisms:
The SECard software lets users, installers and integrators easily:
Reader are compatible with the communication protocol SIA Open Supervised Device Protocol - OSDP™ V1 et V2 |
Readers are compatible with the latest generation of open protocol SSCP (STid Secure Common Protocol). This protocol recommended by ANSSI uses data encryption (AES) and two-way “reader-controller” authentication to ensure security before any communication is allowed between the reader and the management system. |
The innovative tamper protection system protects sensitive data and gives the possibility to delete the authentication keys (patented solution). Unlike the current solutions on the market, the reliability of the accelerometer based technology avoids it being outsmarted.
Designed to push the boundaries, the Architect® Hybrid keypad reader design has been developed to withstand harsh environments, to operate outside (IP65 level) and to offer a high impact resistance (IK08).

The Architect® series is intuitive and dynamic, and consists of 6 interchangeable modules
that can easily be connected to a common smart RFID core.
This easy and cost saving modular approach allows autonomy on the security access management.
*Our readers can only read the UID/Chip Serial Number. They cannot read secure HID Global’s iCLASS™ cryptographic protections.
