Hands-free vehicle access.
The reader identifies the tag on an approaching vehicle and passes its number over Wiegand to the access controller or Akuvox door phone at the entry, which checks it and triggers the gate — ideal for apartment car parks and staff parking.

Outdoor
IP66 for open-air posts.
The sealed white housing is rated IP66 and −20 °C to +65 °C, so it can sit on a post at the gate line.
A 9 dBi antenna reads EPC Gen2 tags in the 902–928 MHz (US) and 865–868 MHz (EU) bands at up to 15 m.
