Ethos™ PKI Readers
Readers for Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) support Personal and Commercial Identity Verification (PIV/CIV)
WaveLynx Technologies’ line of contactless Ethos PKI Readers offers a modern aesthetic and a state-of-the-art feature set. They are designed for FIPS 201-2 identification validation in programs such as GSA/FICAM. This line of readers is fully compliant with the SIA OSDPTM protocol for validation of PKI-based Smart Cards (PIV, PIV-I, CIV, TWIC, CAC). The Ethos PKI line of readers is available in mullion or single gang mounting options, a backlit metal keypad for durable multi-factor authentication, and low-frequency proximity credential compatibility to support environments that are transitioning from Proximity to PKI.
Ethos PKI readers are designed for Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP) but can accommodate Wiegand panel communications as well to support a seamless transition from other credential technologies to PIV. Equipped with our patented OSDP Autodetect feature. these readers enable an extremely cost-effective transition. OSDP Secure Channel functionality is "plug and play" when connecting the reader to an OSDP compliant access control panel providing encrypted communication with the host. OSDP secure file transfer* functionality ensures remote updates of the readers for disabling proximity card support upon completion of transition or remote firmware updates when necessary.
*NOTE: The connected access control panel must support Remote File Transfer. If not, proximity can be disabled using a Local File Transfer. This is accomplished with an Android App communicating over BLE, provided by WaveLynx Technologies.
Highly optimized designs require no reader calibration or tuning and provide short transaction times for an excellent user experience.
