ATX Hybrid Multi-Prox

ATEX & IECEx Certified Reader: 125 kHz Multi-Prox and 13.56 MHz DESFire® EV3

The ATEX & IECEx certified reader combines compatibility with 125 kHz and 13.56 MHz DESFire® EV3 technologies, offering robust, secure, and versatile access control for hazardous environments. Specifically designed to meet strict safety standards, it ensures intrinsic safety in potentially explosive atmospheres, such as those with flammable gases, vapors, or dust. This reader is an excellent choice for industrial sites requiring durable and compliant solutions for access control and identification.

Standing the Test of Time
The Ex II 2 GD IP66 explosion-proof enclosure of the ATX hydrid multi-prox reader makes it extremely robust in harsh environments (IP66 certified) as well as highly resistant to vandalism (IK10 certified).

ATEX & IECEx Certified Reader
The ATX hybrid multi-prox reader is ATEX (EN60079) & IECEx certified and complies with both European Directives (99/92/CE and 94/9/CE). It is used to control people’s access to highsecurity areas in:
• the chemical and petrochemical industries,
• oil and gas refineries,
• nuclear power plants,
• mines.

Multi-Technology Reader
The ATX hybrid multi-prox reader simplifies management of upgrades, technological migrations and complex multi-site configurations.

125 kHz Prox Technologies
The reader is compatible with many legacy Prox technologies*: EM®, HID Proximity®, AWID®, INDALA®, IOPROX®…

MIFARE® DESFire® EV3
The reader supports for the latest MIFARE® DESFire® EV3 contactless technologies with new data security mechanisms: “Secure Messaging” to secure the transaction and “Proximity Check” to protect against relay attacks.

Open Technologies for Easy Integration
The reader is compatible with many access control systems and accepts the main protocols: Wiegand and OSDP™ v1 & v2.
