The Farpointe Data P-640-A Pyramid Series Reader with Keypad (OSDP) is a high-performance 125 kHz proximity reader with integrated keypad, designed to deliver enhanced access control through multi-factor authentication (card + PIN). Supporting Farpointe credentials along with select AWID® proximity protocols, the P-640-A is ideal for facilities operating mixed or legacy credential systems.
Combining reliable proximity card reading with secure PIN entry, the P-640-A supports flexible authentication methods including card-only, PIN-only, or card + PIN, allowing organizations to tailor security levels to meet specific requirements.
Equipped with Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP), this reader provides secure, encrypted communication, along with enhanced device supervision and tamper detection—making it a modern, more secure alternative to traditional Wiegand-based readers.
Featuring a single-gang mount design, the P-640-A installs easily on standard metal or plastic electrical boxes, as well as flat surfaces, making it ideal for both new installations and retrofit projects.
With an extended read range of up to 7 inches (depending on credential and installation conditions), the P-640-A delivers convenient, reliable credential presentation for high-traffic entry points.
