CASCADE PROXIMITY READER
P/N: 01105-001 ∙ Rev. 06.19

PYRAMID SERIES PROXIMITY®
Pyramid Series Proximity® from Farpointe Data sets the electronic security benchmark for 125-kHz proximity readers, cards, and tags. Based upon proven contactless digital radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, Pyramid readers interface with a wide range of electronic access control systems by complying with the Wiegand communication protocol. They offer value-add features such as MAXSecure™ and fleaPower™, and can be ordered to support several proximity card and tag technologies. Additionally, Pyramid cards and tags are passive devices, eliminate maintenance by requiring no battery, and can be ordered to support several proximity reader technologies.

NOTES:
1 Carrying the ETL Label and tested by Intertek, conforms to UL Standard 294 and ULC Standard 60839-11-1. Only Wiegand models have been evaluated.
2 Self evaluated.
3 Linear power supplies are recommended for best operation.
4 Using PSC-1 Standard Light Proximity Card with 12 VDC at the reader.
5 For example, Belden 9535 or similar, supporting the five conductors comprising the physical layer of the Wiegand interface (power, ground, data 0,
data 1, and/or beeper and LED). Alternatively, Belden 9539 or similar, for all reader functions. Shielded, twisted pair (Belden 8723 or similar) for
OSDP. Contact your access control system manufacturer for their specific requirements.
6 OSDP readers are independent models and need to be appended with the suffix “-OSDP” when ordering (Example: P-500-OSDP).
7 Examples may include, and may not be limited to, PSC-1, PSI-4, PSM-2, PSK-3, and PDT-1.
8 Examples may include, and may not be limited to, ProxCard II®, ISOProx® II, and ProxKey® II.
9 Examples may include, and may not be limited to, CS Prox Card, GR (ISO) Graphics Quality Prox Card, and KT Key Tag.
