ACR1281U-C1 DualBoost II is the second generation of ACS’s ACR128 DualBoost Reader. It is a dual interface reader that can access any contact and contactless smart cards following the ISO 7816 and ISO 14443 standards. ACR1281U-C1 enables one to conventionally integrate both separate and independent applications for contact and contactless technologies into one device and one card. The DualBoost Series is PC/SC-compliant for both contact and contactless interfaces. It makes use of high-speed communication for contactless cards at a maximum of 848 Kbps, which makes it suitable for highly demanding applications. It also provides intelligent support for hybrid and combi last cards, such that it detects a contactless card even if it is inserted in the contact card slot. Lastly, it has built-in ISO 7816 (Class A) SAM slot, which can be used together with a SAM card, for added security in both contact and contactless application. With additional features such as USB firmware upgradeability, contact memory card support and extended APDU support, the ACR1281U-C1 DualBoost II is an all-in-one, cost-effective and powerful dual interface reader designed to provide you with great flexibility and convenience.
