Proximity reader ROGER PRT66EM-G 2993 OEM, 125 kHz EM card compatible, metal housing

The ROGER PRT66EM-G 2993 OEM is a proximity reader designed to read 125 kHz EM-type contactless cards and tags. Housed in a robust metal enclosure, the reader is intended for wall or panel mounting and integrates with access control systems to allow credential-based entry. Its construction and interface options make it suitable for doors, gates and turnstiles in commercial and residential installations where basic RFID identification is required.

Advantages

The metal housing provides enhanced durability and resistance to mechanical damage and environmental factors compared to plastic housings. Compatibility with standard 125 kHz EM contactless cards and tags ensures wide availability of credentials and easy replacement. The reader’s design supports straightforward mounting on walls or panels and integration into existing control systems, offering reliable read performance for everyday access control tasks.

Suitable for

• Basic access control for office and commercial doors
• Residential entry systems and gated communities
• Integration with gates and turnstiles
• Replacement or upgrade of existing 125 kHz EM-based readers

Key specifications

• Frequency: 125 kHz EM standard
• Supported credential types: Proximity contactless cards and keyfobs
• Housing material: Metal enclosure for increased durability
• Mounting: Wall or panel mounting compatible
• Typical read range: Suitable for close-range proximity reading (dependent on credential and installation)
• Operating environment: Indoor and sheltered outdoor installations (subject to site conditions)
• Interface: Designed for integration with standard access control systems (wiring and protocol depend on controller)

How to use

Mount the reader on a stable wall or panel at an ergonomic height for users, following mounting dimensions and clearances provided by the system integrator or installation guide. Connect the reader to the access control controller using the appropriate wiring and interface expected by the controller; power and signal connections must match the controller specifications. Present a compatible 125 kHz EM card or tag within the reader’s effective range to register or verify credentials. Follow the access control system procedures to enroll new cards and configure user permissions through the controller or management software.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, install the reader away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference and ensure secure cable routing. Use official or industry-standard 125 kHz EM credentials to maintain compatibility. When installing outdoors or in exposed locations, verify that the site conditions match the environmental tolerances of a metal-housed reader and provide appropriate protection from direct weather exposure if necessary.
