HID Signo 40 40NKS-T2-000000 high-frequency (HF) RFID security wall-mount readers.
Used: Previously installed and used by a company, before being replaced with different model. All units in good working condition at time of removal. Some light, varying cosmetic wear from use and removal.
Includes: reader, box, mounting bolts.
Please note: the boxes are labeled 40TKS-00-000000, but the readers themselves are version 40NKS-T2-000000. This can be seen on a sticker on back of reader, underneath the case (See photo above).
AI Generated Description below:
The 40NKS-T2-000000 is a specific configuration of the HID Signo 40, which is a high-security wall-mount reader designed for physical access control. It is part of HID Global's flagship "Signo" line, intended to replace older models like the iCLASS R40 and RP40.
The "T2" in this specific part number indicates it is configured with a Smart Profile, which typically prioritizes 13.56 MHz technologies (like Seos and MIFARE) and mobile credentials, often omitting or deactivating legacy 125 kHz proximity support to enhance security.

Key Features
Highly Versatile Support: Designed to handle over 15 credential technologies, including HID Mobile Access (mobile phones as keys), Seos, iCLASS SE, MIFARE DESFire EV1/EV2, and Apple Wallet (ECP).
Surface Detection: This model features a capacitive touch/surface detection capability that allows the reader to automatically recalibrate and optimize its read range based on the mounting surface (e.g., metal vs. wood).
OSDP Support: Unlike older readers that rely solely on Wiegand (which is vulnerable to sniffing), this reader supports the OSDP secure channel for bidirectional communication.
Remote Management: It can be managed and configured wirelessly via the HID Reader Manager mobile app, allowing you to update firmware or change settings without removing the reader from the wall.
Physical Dimensions
Note: Because this is a T2-Smart Profile unit, it is optimized for modern encrypted credentials. If your facility uses legacy 125 kHz "Prox" cards, you should verify if your specific "T2" firmware configuration has that frequency disabled, as some T-series models are strictly for smart/mobile technology.
