DS-K1101 Series Mifare Card Reader

The DS-K1101 Series card readers bring advanced access control technology to your security infrastructure. Available in two models – the DS-K1101M standard reader and the DS-K1101MK with integrated keypad – these devices combine durability with sophisticated features for seamless access management.

Professional-Grade Construction

The DS-K1101 Series features a PC+ABS material shell with PMMA panel design, creating a sleek yet durable housing. This construction not only provides an elegant appearance but also ensures longevity in various environments. Moreover, the IP64 protection rating guarantees dust-proof and water-proof performance, making the DS-K1101 Series suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.

Advanced Processing Capabilities

At the core of the DS-K1101 Series is a powerful 32-bit high-speed processor that enables swift card reading and authentication. The system operates at a 13.56MHz reading frequency and can detect Mifare cards within a 50mm (1.97″) range. Additionally, the DS-K1101 Series consumes minimal power, requiring only 12V DC and drawing ≤500mA with power consumption of ≤2W.

Intelligent Security Features

The DS-K1101 Series incorporates several innovative security measures:

  • Tamper-proof alarm system detects unauthorized tampering
  • Built-in audible beeper provides audio feedback for successful operations
  • LED indicators clearly display reader status and power information
  • DIP switch for easy configuration of ID settings
  • Dual communication protocol support with both RS485 and Wiegand (W26/W34)

Self-Healing Technology

The DS-K1101 Series includes a remarkable watchdog design that allows the reader to repair itself when exceptions occur. This self-diagnostic capability significantly extends the service life of the device while reducing maintenance requirements. Furthermore, the online upgrade function (under 485 communication mode) enables easy firmware updates, with a fail-safe mechanism that allows the reader to revert to pre-upgrade status if an update fails.

Model Comparison

The DS-K1101 Series offers two distinct models to meet different security requirements:

  • DS-K1101M – Standard Mifare card reader for basic access control
  • DS-K1101MK – Enhanced Mifare card reader with integrated 12-key keypad (0-9, *, #) for dual-factor authentication

Ideal Users

The DS-K1101 Series is particularly suitable for:

  • Commercial building managers – The wide operating temperature range (-20°C to +65°C) makes the DS-K1101 Series ideal for various commercial environments, from heated office buildings to semi-outdoor locations.
  • Security-conscious organizations – With tamper-proof alarms and self-diagnostic capabilities, the DS-K1101 Series provides enhanced security for sensitive areas.
  • Sites requiring multi-factor authentication – The DS-K1101MK model combines card reading with keypad entry, enabling PIN+card authentication for higher security requirements.
  • Harsh environment installations – Thanks to the IP64 protection rating and 10% to 90% humidity tolerance, the DS-K1101 Series performs reliably in challenging conditions.
