The Akuvox ACR-CRP12 is an Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) long-range access control reader primarily designed for automated vehicle access and parking lot management. It is a core component in Akuvox's vehicle access control solution, often pairing with their door phones or access control terminals (via Wiegand) and their UHF-TAG11 vehicle tags.
- Here is a summary of its key features and specifications:
- Key Features
- Long-Range Identification: It can read UHF RFID tags (like the Akuvox UHF-TAG11 windshield tag) from a significant distance, typically up to 10 meters (some sources suggest up to 20 meters depending on power settings and environment), allowing for seamless, contactless vehicle entry and exit without the driver having to stop or roll down a window.2
- Application: It is ideal for parking lot management, gated communities, commercial garages, and fleet management systems.3
- Durability and Outdoor Use: It has an IP66 rating, meaning it is waterproof and dustproof, making it reliable for performance in outdoor environments and various weather conditions.4
- Multiple Communication Interfaces: It supports several interfaces for integration with other access control systems, including:5
- Wiegand (WG)6
- USB
- TCP/IP (Ethernet/RJ45)7
- RS485
- Wiegand (WG)6
- Protocol Support: It supports the standard EPCglobal UHF Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C protocols.8
- Visual and Auditory Feedback: It includes a multi-color indicator light (Red/Yellow/Green/Blue/Cyan/Purple/White) and a buzzer for clear operational feedback to users.9
- Energy-Efficient: Designed for low power consumption and a long service life.10
- Long-Range Identification: It can read UHF RFID tags (like the Akuvox UHF-TAG11 windshield tag) from a significant distance, typically up to 10 meters (some sources suggest up to 20 meters depending on power settings and environment), allowing for seamless, contactless vehicle entry and exit without the driver having to stop or roll down a window.2
