Compact USB smart card reader for secure log-on

The IDENTIV 905141 SmartFold is a CCID-compliant contact reader that accepts ID1-format cards under ISO 7816. It connects by USB and is approved for CAC use, making it suitable for government, enterprise and home scenarios such as e-Banking, secure network access and loyalty programmes.

Behaviour during extended sessions

The dongle-form device draws power from the USB port and maintains ISO 7816 communication without active cooling. Its EMV Level 1 certification confirms reliable contact performance for prolonged transactions or repeated authentication cycles.

Installation and common issues

The reader installs as a standard CCID device on modern operating systems with no separate driver required. Because the folding mechanism is compact, forcing a misaligned card can damage the contacts; users should insert cards gently and ensure the hinge is fully open before use.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 905141 draw from a USB port during all-day use?

The reader is a CCID-compliant USB dongle with no external supply, so it draws only the standard bus power allowed for a low-power smart-card device.

What must I already have to use the 905141 with a smart card?

You need a computer with a free USB port, an operating system that supports the CCID class driver, and an ID1-format (ISO 8716) smart card such as a CAC, e-ID or banking card.

Will the 905141 work with the older ISO 7816 contact cards I still use?

Yes — the SCR3500 is fully ISO 7816 compliant and reads every major contact smart card that follows that standard.
