BioEntry R2

Compact Fingerprint & RFID Reader for Centralised Access Control.

Overview

BioEntry R2 is Suprema's compact fingerprint and RFID reader, purpose-designed for centralised access control deployments alongside Suprema's CoreStation intelligent controller. Packed in a 50 mm mullion-type housing, BioEntry R2 pairs high-definition fingerprint capture with dual-frequency RFID in a form factor that fits any door frame. With OSDP V2 RS-485 slave communication, BioEntry R2 brings biometric authentication to existing access control infrastructure without replacing head-end controllers — ideal for multi-door enterprise and government deployments.
