Manhattan Smart Card Reader, External, Contact, USB, Black

Smart card technology finds multiple applications in security and access control, financial transactions, medical records, loyalty programs, vending machines, toll systems, network access for businesses or users, and more applications that require a secure exchange of information. Smart cards have a contact area (or "chip") with several contacts that, when inserted into a MANHATTAN Smart Card Reader, can authorize the user to securely transfer information between the card and the equipment. Smart cards are widely used in Europe and Asia, and their use is growing in North and South America, replacing less secure and less profitable barcode readers and magnetic stripe cards, allowing flexible, standardized, and tamper-proof transactions with strong accreditation and minimal human intervention. Quick and easy installation.
