ACR1555U Secure Bluetooth® NFC Reader is designed to facilitate on-the-go smart card and NFC applications. It combines the latest 13.56 MHz contactless technology with Bluetooth® connectivity.

ACR1555U supports ISO 14443 Type A and B smart cards, MIFARE®, FeliCa®, and most NFC tags and devices compliant with ISO 18092 standard. This makes ACR1555U ideal for a broad range of solutions, such as hands-free verification for physical and logical access control, and inventory tracking. ACR1555U has two interfaces: Bluetooth 5.2 (also known as Bluetooth Low Energy or BLE) for pairing with mobile devices, and USB Full Speed for PC-linked operation. Additionally, it can read/write at a speed of up to 848 kbps for contactless smart card and NFC device access.

With a compact design and a rechargeable Lithium-ion battery for power, ACR1555U is extremely portable and convenient for use anytime, anywhere with most Bluetooth-enabled smartphones and tablets.
