The ACR1552U-MF from ACS is a 13.56 MHz USB-C contactless smartcard reader that supports ISO 14443 type A and B cards, MIFARE, FeliCa, ISO 15693 and ISO 18092-compliant NFC cards and tags. This is the latest evolution of the popular ACR1252, equipped with a SAM slot which provides a high-level of security in contactless and NFC transactions. It boasts faster read/write speeds than previous versions and compatibility with a still wider range of cards.

NFC Forum certified, the ACR1552 supports modes including card reader/writer, card emulation and now keyboard emulation (using a free software download). The ACR1552 is also compatible with Read-a-Card, the contactless card ID reading application, useful for the integration of RFID technology into new or existing systems.

The ACR1552 is CCID and PC/SC compliant, for maximum interoperability with various different devices and applications. Supports extended APDU messages (up to 64 kbytes).

This ACR1552U-MF model is housed in a white plastic case with a captive cable. It is supplied with the default ACS branding shown in the photograph, but the unbranded reader could just as easily take your own label or branding. We can assist with design and supply of custom labels to suit your application. Contact us to discuss options.
