Crescendo Evaluation Kit
Out-of-the-box, standards-compliant support for thousands of logical access applications
The Crescendo series smartcard specialises in logical and physical access control applications incorporating HID’s iClass and HID Proximity or MiFare technologies with a cryptographic contact chip. By combining logical and physical access control in a single card the Crescendo series reduces card management costs and increases user convenience. The kit contains both MiFare and iClass options of the Crescendo smartcard allowing users to evaluate and test integration of both technologies with any physical access systems already in place.
As well as including the relevant drivers and Crescendo CSP the Evaluation Kit also contains Smartcard Focus’ Crescendo start-up guide designed to help users easily set up Microsoft Windows Smartcard authentication. This guide contains detailed instructions on setting up Windows smartcard logon emphasising the main aspects specific to enabling and running a secure two-factor authentication system. The addition of this guide creates an all round easy to use package and gives IT managers a wealth of information to help combine logical and physical access control in a single card. To view the introductory chapter and a full contents list of this guide click the more info button below.

Evaluation Kit contains:- 1 x iClass 32K/Prox Crescendo C700 card
- 1 x MiFare 4K Crescendo C700 card

To evaluate the logical access features of the Crescendo cards you will require at least one of the following smartcard readers:- Omnikey CM3121 - Our most popular USB desktop smartcard reader.
- Omnikey CM4040 - PCMCIA smartcard reader suitable for many laptops.
- Omnikey CM4321 - Smartcard reader for laptops with the new ExpressCard slot interface.
To evaluate the logical access functions of Crescendo and also investigate the integration opportunities of contactless cards with other PC applications we recommend the following reader:- Omnikey CM5321 - USB desktop combined contact and contactless reader.
Further supplies of all cards and readers are available from our store.
