SKU CH-3K1Z-J0VW7 MPN 02144-001

An IP65 and IK07 rated 13.56MHz RFID reader with an EAL6+ certified secure element for access control

  • Seamless integration with Axis door controllers and credentials
  • Reads most 13.56MHz RFID cards for flexible access
  • IP65 rating protects against dust and water jets
  • IK07 rating resists vandalism in exposed locations
  • EAL6+ secure element safeguards credential data
  • Mullion-mount design simplifies installation on narrow frames

Purpose-built RFID reader

The Axis A4020-E is a contactless RFID reader operating at 13.56MHz. It is designed to integrate directly with Axis door controllers and credentials for access-control systems. The mullion-mount form factor suits narrow door frames and tight installation spaces.

Weather-rated durability

An IP65 rating protects the unit against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction. An IK07 rating means the enclosure withstands impacts of up to 2 joules. The built-in EAL6+ certified secure element stores cryptographic keys and sensitive data in tamper-resistant hardware.

System integration focus

The reader requires a compatible Axis door controller to function as part of a complete access-control solution. It does not operate as a standalone device or connect directly to a network without the controller. The mullion mounting style frees up wall space beside the door and simplifies cable routing through the frame.

Questions about this item

How is the mullion-mount A4020-E reader installed, and what step is often missed?

Mount the reader on a narrow door frame using the supplied mullion bracket, then connect the OSDP or Wiegand cable to the Axis door controller; the step often missed is configuring the reader in the controller software before the credentials will work.

What maintenance or replacement will the IP65 IK07 reader need later?

The sealed 13.56 MHz unit has no moving parts or user-replaceable components; only periodic cleaning of the front face and firmware updates via the controller are required over its service life.

What limit appears first when the reader runs continuously in a harsh environment?

The IP65 and IK07 ratings define the environmental ceiling; sustained exposure beyond those dust, water and impact limits will cause the first failure.
